College is not just about what salary you make. It’s an education. You are becoming a well rounded person. I have a masters degree and I work at an amazing museum and I love going to work. If you are worried about tuition, just go to a cheaper school and apply to several scholarships.

comparing apples to apples, the bureau of labor and statistics states 80,000 for college degree, 50,000 with high school diploma and 38,000 for those who do not complete high school. bottom line, education pays

Why are we stopping at 5 years? You know all those doctors, lawyers, dentists, nurses, scientists, professors, make like 0 dollars the first 5 years after college, then become top 5% in earnings the rest of their lives

Break up the chart to only grads who work in the field in which they got a degree. The numbers will go up.

Maybe if entrepreneurship was encouraged then more people could have their own businesses and not depend on others for their income.

I need to know all the factors, what degree? what's the income of family? race, ethnicity, immigrant status. so much affects how much you make with after college.

Over saturation in the market. Get a job in the trades! Make way more money without the loan debt!

Easy degrees have high competition & low pay. Difficult degrees have low competition & higher pay. But universities are in the market of providing degrees the students ask for and don’t match degrees offered to match jobs available

Bachelor's degree holder here. My salary is $44k. I'm in a better overall financial situation than a lot of other graduates, but still... I should be making at least $70k at this point in my life. At my current salary, I'm WAY below the threshold to qualify for reduced rent where I live. I could get a huge raise tomorrow and I would still be seen as someone who is struggling so badly that I need a break on rent.

I made today’s median salary without a college degree in 2012. That’s wild.

How is that the National medium is higher than that? I thought 67-70K was the national medium... Makes no sense graduates are less than that :S Where are you getting those numbers?

It all depends the type of degree you get, your grades, and honestly your personality. A degree in education versus engineer, are two different types of pay scale. Also, the amount of education and comcentration matter. I have a masters in commercial real estate investing with a bachelors in financing & banking. I was able to get $80k from my first job. So, it’s possible to make money you just have to position yourself and have a little luck.

when I was in school in the late 90's early 00's all the professors were saying the boomers were going to retire and there would be more jobs available than anyone can fill. 25 years later and boomers are still working
