I hold a PhD in mathematics from a traditional research university; I taught at Devry University for a few years, but quit after witnessing their high pressures recruitment of students who clearly lacked the basic skills that are required to be successful as students. Essentially, the only entrance requirement is a pulse ...

I am a child of Asian immigrants who made it to the middle class. Because Iâm not âpoorâ I didnât get any financial aid but qualified for loans. I went to a public college for four years and have now acquired $100k of student debt. The first job I could get out of college only paid me $36k a year and my student loan payments were $1100 a month. Companies these days donât want to hire anybody without a degree but still want to pay you like you didnât earn one. Thatâs whatâs messed up⌠itâs all messed up.

This happened to my mother. She went back to school to get her Real Estate license, graduated, and even got hired on to a job with a reputable Real Estate Agency, but during the hiring process, they found that the school she attended wasn't accredited, and rescinded the offer. She had already had her picture published in the paper as an up and coming Agent and all. Poor woman.

My son is 14, straight-A student, noted that he is surrounded by adults who spent many tens of thousands of dollars for degrees we donât use, and asked me how I felt about his going to community college. I told him I support him 100%. Thereâs no guarantee that fancy degree will land you a fancy job; maybe a 50/50 shot, at best. It doesnât matter what the degree is in, either, before the âjust be smart picking your major đâ crowd shows up. If someoneâs taking out the equivalent of a mortgage in debt, the odds of it working out had better be north of 95%, and they just arenât. Get a two-year degree and see what jobs you can land. Thatâs the best advice. đ

I remember this came out when I entered community college. Everest College and University of Phoenix were aggressively trying to recruit students through cold calls and the classifieds. I am so grateful that I only had interest in attending public local colleges. This was the way to graduate without debt. Now, 20+ years later, students can earn a degree online from a reputable public college.

My jaw dropped listening to this. He doesn't seem to realize just how evil it is to manipulate the most vulnerable and desperate people in society into pursuing expensive endeavors that they don't need. People who are recovering from addiction, ex-gang members, prostitutes, etc. need to get a trade (mechanic, EMT, construction, etc.) so that they can get a job immediately to take care of themselves.

As someone who has attended a for profit college, an ROP/CTE program through an adult school, and traditional public schools/community college, I can tell you that the public school is much better quality. I felt like people in charge of my program at the for-profit didnât know what they were doing running a program and it showed that they only knew how to run a business. It showed. The turnover of instructors was ridiculous. In the public schools I saw that they were held to a standard and would face significant consequences for not meeting expectations for the state.

This is so sad. I have a niece who went to Heald finished and graduated with thousands of dollars in loans. She didnât get a decent job and had to go to junior college. Those loans from heals has effected her financial aid. That education was worthless, it couldnât be transferred to the local junior college. Donât go to these schools. Just attend your local junior or state college. My niece has since graduated junior college and transferred to a state college. But heald had her take out so much in student loans itâs effecting her Financial aid at the state college. Itâs really sad something needs to be done.

Thank you student loans for helping me get through college. I don't think I can ever repay you.
