The effects of your society can either break you or build you up. But in this case it can hurt you. What happens when you lose your job and you don’t have a degree? It is harder to find another job because they want someone with a degree and experience. Experience in a field can only get you so far. Also when you don’t have a high school diploma and you’re a statistic, you are basically denying yourself of college and you’re just like everyone else.
Another cause of not going to college is how you grow up. Everyone does not grow up alike. Some parents have never been to college. Some households don’t have the finances to attend college. Also the child probably doesn’t like school at all.
When a parent has never been to college, and the child sees or knows this, they believe they don’t have to go either. They also wonder why they should have to if their parents didn’t go. Next, not having the funds; money, scholarships, or financial aid, is an effect of how someone grows up. Last, because someone didn’t like college, they just dropped out. Usually it begins before they even get to college. In high school they didn’t like going, so when it became time to go to college, they didn’t want to go, someone wanted them to go so they decided to try it. When going fell through they quit.
There are many other factors that will affect a person’s life. But not going to college is one main effect. Society and how someone grew up are two of many causes of not going. Think about how not attending college can affect you before you decide not to go.
