If you are studying something that will grant you a lot of job opportunities, like I.T./computer science, then it's probably a good investment. If it's to study """"""art"""""" then maybe not so much.

What are you majoring in. That's a big factor

>>18185704
How is IT? Does it require good math skills?
>>18185705
I was thinking criminal justice

>>18185694
Do you have any money at all saved up?

>>18185724
My parents helping me, but I will be taking out a few loans

I have some money saved up, it ain't much tho, like 4K

>criminal justice
what are you planning to do with it?

>>18185760
I was planning on going into an agency like ICE or something, I looked into the requirements to join and it amsaid you need a 4 year bachelors degree

>>18185711
Yes, at least in my country, studying anything about computers like I.T. has a bunch of big math subjects like calculus, algebra. They are at the beginning. Once you are done with them you forget about math mostly but they are annoying and dense.
You could say that after that you need to understand some logic but that's easier to get into than just abstract math.

Ok, I'm US btw, I'm not too good at math, but If I get through the beginning math courses could I do well?

>>18185816
Yeah I guess so. Getting a good teacher is also pretty important for math, that's probably a matter of luck mostly.
I know they say there's way more to I.T. than programming but do you know and enjoy programming? (even if it's something simple like writing some script modification for some videogame)

>Do you know programming?
Nah, I would be going blind into it

then you're definitely wasting money, I'm a CBP officer and having a criminal justice degree doesn't actually get you any advantage in law enforcement over any other arts degree.

If the option is available to you you'd be better off going to a state school that is close enough so you can commute from home, its far more affordable. I just went and looked up some costs of the school I graduated from, look at how much more expensive it is to live on college than commute. The costs of room and board are double that of tuition, its an incredible rip off.
