Education and Earnings
While there is widespread concern about student debt and the cost of higher education, data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics makes a strong case that higher education leads to higher earnings and lower unemployment rates.
In 2022, median annual earnings for a full-time worker with a bachelor's degree were about $30,000 more than for a worker with only a high school diploma, a difference of more than $1 million over a 35-year career. Even so, it's important to be realistic about taking on debt in relation to expected earnings, as the job market and potential compensation can vary widely for different fields of study.
