Is A College Education Still Worth It?

Collegiate experts agree that a college degree is still generally worth the time and money.

College enrollment is falling.  

According to the National Student Clearinghouse Research Center, undergraduate enrollment dropped nearly 5% from 2021 to 2022. Some experts say the decline suggests students are questioning whether college is worth the cost.   

Data from the College Board shows college costs jumped 25% from 2009 to 2019. So, how much should students expect to pay now? Experts say it depends.
