how do you feel about going to college or university?

In my country a university degree does make a difference especially if you want to apply for a job in a big corporation or the Government. In my own case I realized this when I could go no further in my career because I was missing that little piece of paper. I went to university as a mature student. It was very hard, I had a husband, children, a house and a cat to look after as well. In the end I did get a BA. Within two years it made a difference of $10,000 per year in my salary. By the time I retired the difference was $ 30,000 per year and it improved my pension. I am forever grateful to my family and friends who supported and encouraged me to take this step. Of course there are still opportunities for talented people without a degree, if they have the drive and motivation, it depends on the individual.

I think, just a minimum qualification is enough to get a good pay if you can work out your life. i know people who are doing very good in life just with the minimum school education....but again...if you are ambitious and want to grow...collage education is must.
