Yes, It’s Still Worth It

Abstract:

With average undergraduate debt levels hovering around $20,000 for a 4-year degree, many have asked if going to college is still worth the years of inevitable student loan debt. The answer, according to new report from the Education Research Center (ERC) is a resounding YES! With politicians throwing around phrases like “student loan mortgage” and “mortgaging our future” in order to paint a doomsday-like picture of current student debt levels, it is important that prospective students aren’t scared off from college by the thought of student loan debt.
