You may be wondering why
it’s so important to start working on your college plans
so early. Here are four quick (but very important)
reasons why:
Reason #1
Every bit of education you get after high school
increases the chances you'll earn good pay. Most college
graduates earn a lot more money during their working
years than people who stop their education at high
school.
Reason #2
The more education you get, the more likely it is you
will always have a job. According to one estimate, by
the year 2028 there will be 19 million more jobs for
educated workers than there are qualified people to fill
them.
Reason #3
Continuing education after high school is much more
important for your generation than it was for your
parents' generation. Today most good jobs require more
than a high school diploma. Businesses want to hire
people who have a college education.
Reason #4
Education beyond high school gives you a lot of other
benefits, including meeting new people, taking part in
new opportunities to explore your interests, and
experiencing success.
