@daveramsey: Where you go to school does not matter. There is no data, zero pieces of research, to say where you went to school causes you to be successful. None. Nada. The formula that makes you successful is called stirring up the person in your mirror, and then go find the knowledge it takes to become successful. Your degree doesn’t make you successful. YOU do.

As a nurse I agree 💯 with him. I went to private Catholic college, so expensive, and so much debt. Others went to community college 2 years, no debt and we are all working at the same hospital, they’re stress free , owning their degree, and we are renting a degree and still paying debt. 😅

Dave is right on this point. I have been a lawyer for 20 years and I have been asked one time where I went to school. Reputation and personality is what matters.

Not for the client but it does for the individual that obtain the degree. There are differences in colleges and universities.

I definitely looked up where my doctor went to school and did their residency before choosing them. I’ve also been a hiring manager and for recent grads where you went to school definitely factors in, depending on the role. After that first job, not so much.

it does, because the quality of education matters.

Not true at all. ALL my doctors post their bios and I read them as step freakin one.

If you wanna work for a big company it does matter if they only hire from select colleges..but it shouldn’t matter as not everyone wants to go into half million dollar debt just for a school a job hires from

Very useful advice for many, but like much of Dave’s advice, this doesn’t hold true for the top tier.

It does matter depending on what field you’re going into. If you’re going to be a lawyer or a doctor, you have a lot more opportunities and job offers than a less notable college.

Obviously, you would never ask but if you walk into a doctors office, and you see a prestigious at school has given their diploma you’ll feel a lot better won’t you?
