i think those are exceptional cases. having a college degree will definitely increase your chances for the job you want…and extra classes cant hurt either. Id say go for it. Especially if your company will pay for some of it, or reimburse you. Check into that. My sister didnt work in the field she majored in but she still has a good job- some things she learned are intertwined

A college education isn’t about specific job training – that’s what technical and vocational schools are for. Having a college education means you can read, write, think, communicate, and do math at advanced levels, and that’s what employers are looking for – people with advanced basic skills who they know can put in the time and energy necessary to learn what they need to learn.

Yes because you usually need a degree to get in, but it’s true that a lot of the stuff you learn is useless. Also I agree that it’s a scam.

If you’re taking night classes, get a job as a paraprofessional in a classroom. If you’re in a state where you can substitute teach with just a HS diploma, do that for a while, even before you take classes, and open yourself up to all classrooms. if you can, decide what you really want to do within the field of education before you take all the classes. I wish I would’ve. I’d have a lot less in student loans now if I would have.

Let me know if you find one of these or a pink unicorn, or a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow…
