36% of young adults say their college debt wasn't worth it
#9
Is a degree worth getting? Yes. Is debt worth accumulating? That's a personal position- in our home we do not believe in debt TODAY, however, that wasn't always the case, and I think this question mixes up the value of a degree with the presumption of college debt. As if they are a package deal.

I'd be willing to bet 100% of the students who earned a degree with 0% debt would say it was worth it - and that's a much harder path than simply signing your name on a promissory note.
