Is college still worth it
Is College Still Worth It?
As soaring costs make the decision more complicated than ever, the answer for most people is not whether to go, but where to go.
By Brian Kelly
L et me start by saying that here at U.S. News, we rankcolleges and universities, we don’t promote them.Which is a good thing, because this year in particular, college would seem like a very difficult product to sell? What we’ve done for many years is use hardnumbers and extensive reporting to help students andtheir families make sense of the nation’s hundreds of institutionsof higher learning. In our rankings, we look at a variety of factorsthat measure academic quality, from student selectivity to faculty resources to peer assessment. We talk to students, parents,and educators. We crunch the numbers, we evaluate how the schools stack up, then we present the results incharts, lists, and stories. In addition to our list of BestNational Universities, we examine liberal arts colleges,regional colleges, public universities, specialtyprograms,and more. We compare similar schools to oneanother. What we don’t do is tell a student where to go.
Whether to go to college is another matter entirely,and one that has gotten very perplexing in recent years.Let me answer the question in the headline right now:For most people, we think college is still worth it. Theevidence about earnings is pretty clear. College gradsmake more money, people with advanced degreesmake a lot more, and youcan’t get an advanced degreewithout a bachelor’s.The demand for educatedworkers is only going togrow. And there are benefitsbeyond just paychecks. But which college andwhich type of college?That’s where things havegotten increasingly complicatedin recent years andmay even be at some kindof tipping point of consumerchange. The traditional higher-ed marketplace that has evolved since the end ofWorld War II—one in which a four-year college degreewas seen as the ticket to success and society’s goal wasto provide every citizen with a chance at one—seemspoised for a massive shake-up. Some analysts are predictingthat higher-ed is the next economic bubble,headed for a crash. I don’t see such a drastic outcome,but it’s hard to believe the system can sustain itself asit is for much longer. The industry should know it has aproblem when the only thing worse than a parent findingout his kid didn’t get into that “prestigious” privatecollege is finding out that he did.
It’s the story of our age that the wonderful accomplishmentof a college acceptance has become overwhelmedby the angst over its cost. The sticker pricefor many private colleges has now topped the once-unthinkable $50,000 a year. That’s $200,000 for fouryears, roughly the median price of a home in somemetropolitan areas. That’s the price that Harvard Universitycharges, as well as many schools that appearmuch farther down our lists. Public school tuitions,while lower, have been rising at an even faster rate.And the average student who graduates with debt owes
about $20,000, but that’s sure to grow.
Before people spend that kind of money and take onthat large of a long-term obligation, they had better besure they know what they are getting into. And it willneed to be a more mercenary calculation than just thechance to convene with Aristotleunder an oak tree.
Unfortunately, what’snot clear is whether theproduct—an education—is getting any better orany easier to evaluate.Numerous studies showthat tuition, which has faroutpaced the cost of living,has been spent on thingsother than classroomteaching. Administrativestaffs and lavish facilitiestop the list. After years ofbuilding palatial campuses,states faced with budgetcuts now find that theyare stuck with the fancyathletic center and haveto slash faculty, resultingin packed classrooms detrimentalto the learning experience.
And despite the fact that tenure—the sacred pact oflifetime employment, lengthy sabbaticals, and limitedundergraduate teaching for professors who clear thebar—is starting to come under some sustained criticism,it remains a startling example of expensive inefficiencyin a world that has learned to thrive on leanness. An increasingnumber of college courses are taught by graduateassistants or adjuncts—non-faculty members whowork for low pay.
If colleges were businesses, they would be ripe forhostile takeovers, complete with serious cost-cuttingand painful reorganizations. You can be sure thosebusiness analysts would ask: Is the consumer gettingthe product we promised? What do you actually learnhere? Can you guarantee a job? Admission to graduate school? There are ways to gauge these things, butcolleges have just recently fended off a movement todemand such outcomes measures.
So yes, the product has some problems. It also hasa powerful argument in its favor: the long-establishedtrend lines showing that people with a college degreeearn significantly more money over their lifetimes thanthose without a college degree. Over the years, thosewith college degrees have earned about double whatthose with a high school education have taken in, andthe gap seems to be growing, according to the CensusBureau (and those with professional degrees earn substantiallymore). Some recent theory hascontemplated whether thatgap will remain between,say, a four-year school anda specialized one- or two-yearprogram that teachesa specific skill. What if youinvested half your tuitionmoney in the stock market,got a computer repair certificate,and went to work?Would you be better off in15 or 20 years? But are youwilling to take that chance?And remember, too, thatwhen college critics pointto the fact that Bill Gateswas a Harvard dropout,they fail to mention that hemet some of the guys whohelped him start Microsoftin his dorm. The networkingaspect of college should not be undervalued.
Of course, common sense says that college shouldnot be all about the money. How do you put a priceon becoming an educated person? What’s the value ofbeing able to appreciate ancient Greek drama, Chinesehistory, or differential equations? True, for many peoplethat ideal can seem like quite a luxury when the priceis as high as it is today. But beyond the aesthetic, thepoint of a classic liberal education is to teach you howto think. What’s the value of that in a rapidly changing,technological world where narrow skills can be lucrativeone day and obsolete the next? Hiring managerswill tell you that creative intelligence and an ability tocommunicate are more useful in the long term. As isa proven work ethic, which is why persisting through four years of college is an admirable credential in itself.
The challenge comes down to finding the right collegeat a cost you can afford, and
then making the most ofit. It might not be a four-year brick-and-mortar institutionwith an illustrious name—or a high rank on the U.S. News Best Colleges list (yes, we are sometimes partof the problem). Among the worst outcomes would besomeone who arrives wholly unprepared at a demandingschool and ends up quitting after a year or two, with onlyloan payments to show for it. On average, more than 40percent of college students drop out (and clearly manyof them are stepping on campus without having attainedthe skills and knowledge intheir primary and secondaryschooling to succeed,but that’s another story).
Maybe a two-year degreeis a better place to start.If it works, move on to afour-year program. In fact,it has become much morecommon in recent years fortwo-year schools to work intandem with public collegesto make it possible, evenseamless, to transfer andgraduate within four years.
So much depends on how much a student actually hasto pay. Beyond the sticker price, there is a fair amountof competition among schools, usually by less esteemedinstitutions trying to attract better quality students. Aschool may seem outrageous at $50,000, but a comfortablechoice at $25,000. Some of the highest-rankedschools also have the most sc holarship money, allowingthem to “meet full need”—that is, offering low-to-no tuitionto qualified, needy students. And maybe this chaospoints to the start of a revolution. Maybe one day wewill see actual price competition, with schools acrossthe spectrum a dvertising their lower costs. It’s hard tobelieve that higher education will be able to defy thelaws of economics forever. But that’s not much help ifyou’re looking to go to college right now.
