How many semesters of college have you taken Cidien? If you've done half, might as well finish it. It is totally worth it.. companies won't talk to you unless you have a degree. My friends who decided not to go are making 25k-30k per year.. and some of them are so hard working and smart, just that they had their own reasons for not going to college. I graduated last may, starting salary 50k. I'm not sure about tech school.. I think luck plays a factor in how much you make with a tech degree. I know some guys who did that, they're making around 40k but they really should be paid more.

Nina is totally right here.
I've got my tech certificate (s) and the best I've been able to do is $37k/yr... my wife has a university degree and has been able to get jobs earning up to $50k/yr that have absolutley nothing to do with her education.

Some employers prefer hiring people who have finished a university degree. It shows perseverance and an ability to communicate. Best of all, those employers are willing to pay extra just to have people with that university education.

I guess it's important to figure out if you'd rather be doing something that you enjoy, like a trade, or if you want to earn a good living and having time left to spend with you family and friends. I have a number of friends with university degrees that love their jobs, make lots of money and get plenty of free time. One of my biggest regrets in life is choosing to get a college certificate instead of a university degree.
Gullible isn't in the dictionary.

I agree with Zagatto and Nina Cidien, don't quit Uni. My College became an Uni two years

ago and every now and then I lsip and call it a college because for most of my life that is

what it was. You say you school is a snoozefest? You don't know the meaning of the word

until you come to mine. I take it yours is secular correct? Mine is religious and boy is it

boring. I'll go into details later if you want but right now I just don't want to think about it.

Look at the bright side of things while you can. Thats all I have to say for now.

Lrt me ask you this though. Does your school consider parties and dances wrong and

totally sinful therefore not allowing you to have them? That is what sucks about mine. If

your school is secular it may be small but its still better than mine.

Wow sounds like Footloose... my college banned SYR's (screw your roommates dances where you're suppose to pick your roomie's date) There was too much drinking going on. These are pretty much the only dances we have in our dorms. We still have dances though but only once or twice a semester per dorm.

Only done one year, and am not motivated so this semster my grades will probably be F's. After I finish tech school I should be making about 40k a year starting and move up to a glass ceiling of about 50k in a couple years.

I went to Lutheran schools since halfway through the fifth grade. I probably should have stayed that route and went to Concordia instead of NDSU. Probably would have had more fun and probably would still be in college. Oh well.

Lutheran huh? Still I think irs better than mine. My school is Baptist for crying out loud. As

if that isn't bad enough its mostly run by Southern Baptists. Ohh the horror.
