Does completing the degree matter for adult students?

The answer is “certainly yes”. In this post http://www.evolllution.com/opinions/does-it-pay-for-adults-to-return-to-higher-education-part-1/  I cover a few of the arguments about the value of completing the degree, even during hard times. However, there are a few cautions. Some majors seem to have better outcomes, particularly for those with limited experience. Where you complete your degree matters. Choosing a reputable non-profit like Loyola is a much better choice than one of the big for-profits.  In my next post, I’ll cover ways of making college more affordable.
