Benefits of a College Degree

Higher Job Satisfaction

 

Job satisfaction takes into account workers’ feelings about the work they are doing, the people they work with, the compensation they receive, and all other aspects of day-to-day and long-term work life. Those with college degrees have higher job satisfaction than those that only have a high school education. Their jobs also come with more responsibility and salary-based pay, so employees also have stronger medical, retirement, and paid time-off plans. When it comes to getting a raise or a promotion, someone with a college degree will also be more qualified.

College graduates make more money.

 

People with a bachelor's degree earn about 66 percent more than their peers with only a high school diploma, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A master's degree can net you twice as much as someone with a high school education. But you don't have to take on that degree of academic investment to see the benefits: Even those with an associate's degree tend to earn 25 percent more than those with high school diplomas. Figures vary by occupation, but your earning potential is highly likely to increase with your level of education.

Build a Social Network

 

The social benefits of going to college are arguably the most important besides money because they usually help you snag that high-paying job. Your friends in college will go on to work throughout the country in various fields. Not only are these important personal relationships, but they’re also essential business/networking relationships. In addition, college alumni often recruit for internships and jobs right on campus. For example, at Penn State University, there are 645,000 alumni across the world, many of whom actively seek out Penn State students for jobs and internships. This is typical of most colleges, no matter the size. The social network you build in college can jumpstart your career.
