College is not for everyone plain and simple. I left my last semester of college and started my own company and never looked back. There are way too many things that college won't teach you, and really to me is a waste of money.. IMO the degree gets you in the door, but experience keeps you there.

There is a great book called "Higher Education?"
How Colleges Are Wasting Our Money and Failing Our Kids---and What We Can Do About It
Authors Andrew Hacker and Claudia Dreifus look at where students can get value for their money—and how too many schools charge too much and deliver too little. Check it out at:

Sorry this is my 3rd day on reddit and do not know the formatting scheme well or else I would have made the link clickable.

Just my two cents.


TL-DR - College is a waste of money, find your passion and do it everyday.

Edit- horray!!! the link worked!
