I feel like traditional universities is a dying breed. Of course some big and famous ones like MIT will stay, but in general it is not worth it. If you want to get a degree, instead of $36k a year, you can enroll into online university like UoPeople where the entire 4 year Bachelor Degree will cost you $4k.

Disclosure: I'm not affiliated with UoPeople, but I did graduate from there.

It's a nationally accredited university, not regionally, so you are out of luck getting into any regular university afterwards as all of them require regional accreditation.

1.) When did you graduate? 2.) How has employment been? Not snark; genuinely curious.
