I graduated recently. It was worth it for the things I learned and career benefits, but I do think I chose the wrong university and should have attended another

Highly depends on what degree you get if it’s worth it, as far as experiences go I’d say it’s been worth it for me, even if i got a useless degree (sorry but there are some) I’d still probably be happy i made memories

What is 'it'? Was the time worth it? The effort? The money? The experience? Very different questions

Yeah, for me, it was a case where it was right for me to go university but the specific one I went to wasn't a super good fit. It was very wealthy and not being from a super wealthy background, I struggled to fit in with my classmates class wise and had to work a lot to make ends meet so it was difficult. There was also a heavy Greek life prescence and we had similar issues that Cornell's been having right now so I didn't have a good time attending
