In recent times the debate of university attendance has made its mark in the

recent years. Some believes that enrolling at a college or a university is the


best route to success, while others thinks that colleges aren’t a particular
necessity. Both sides have its pros and cons, and in this essay, both aspects of
issue will be elaborated.
On the first hand, college education offers a structured curriculum designed to
implement in-depth knowledge of the chosen careers. For instance, studying
engineering in a college provides a comprehensive understanding of core
principles, allowing individuals to design innovative solution to many complex
problems. Though this is the case, the rising cost in tuition, accommodation,
textbooks and other daily needs plays a huge role in one’s pursuit into a higher
educational standard. This financial situation could be a potential burden to
not only the student but also the parents and guardians of said students.
On another hand, entering a line of workforce gives individuals the chance to
start earning money in an instant. This provides financial independence and
stability in oneself. Subsequently, this income could help pay for living
expenses, daily needs and other necessities. However, without a college
degree or other education certificate, individuals would find themselves having
limited amounts of jobs, especially in field where a degree is essential. As a
result of this, people would find themselves struggling to find high paying jobs.
Though starting a career is a possibility, there is a potential limit to one’s
advancement in their desired jobs without a college degree.
In summary, while both parties have their own benefits and drawbacks. This
optimal choice depends on circumstances, career and personal preferences.
While starting with a college degree means that students can have a rather
high education, entering the workforce grants immediate access to earn
money.
