Good news: the prestige of a university doesn't matter. 10 years later, the salaries are the same.

A comprehensive survey of university graduates ten years after graduating reveals that for most majors, families are probably wasting their money by choosing a more prestigious and more expensive university. Students who attend low-cost universities will eventually catch up in the years following graduation.

I live in California. The number of Chinese students at universities here is still very high. And I don’t just mean Chinese American students. I mean students straight from the PRC. Heck, some apartment complexes near some of these universities are mostly inhabited by Chinese students. What I’ve been told is that these are the rich kids who didn’t get into a good program in China and so their parents send them here to get a “prestigious” degree to compensate. From the number of BMWs, etc., they drive, I believe it.

Great information today. I have six earned degrees including multiple bachelors, a masters, and a doctorate (PhD). I learned years ago that education is a business and I'm a consumer. I initially went to two years of community college and saved a bundle. I had to figure out what I was willing to pay and that meant I had to make financial decisions rather than emotional or prestige decisions. I didn't graduate from any Tier One Universities and yet at seventy I can look back on a long and successful career. I pity today's young people and think the kind of debt we've piled on them for education is criminal and driven by greed in our institutions of higher learning. Reforms are long overdue. Many of my friends and their children and now grandchildren have paid more in recent years for their BA or BS alone than I did for all six of my degrees combined.

The study itself is defective. What should have been measured is what is the percentage of students get jobs in their fields of study immediately upon graduation? It has always been the experience that almost 100% of those who graduate from top universities get jobs immediately, especially with top-ranked corporations. And most glaringly, the study totally avoided mentioning the fact that it is still WHO YOU KNOW and not WHAT YOU KNOW that matters. The study should have noted the universities from which Management & HR graduated from, because this is a huge factor in the hiring process.

The message of this video is largely true. I have been hiring engineers/scientist in Silicon Valley working with high-tech companies. I would not say the graduates from community colleges will perform at the same level as decent universities. However, I generally don't like to hire graduates from elite schools because they come with over confidence (and/or arrogance) which leads to be selective on work assignments. I have a PhD. degree in EE and I would say, if you want to work on the frontier technologies/science, you need to get your PhD. degree under outstanding professors (who are mostly found only in elite university). Other than that, if your goal of education is income, a decent university which accepts you to enter a field of your choice, is just fine.

The last year's of US high school offers options in tek schools and luckily I had stricter than 'average' parents, having been little kids during ww2 in EuroAsia. They oftentimes had to run from bombs and falling airplanes from the sky, so as my childhood, I was always taught to trace pictures of homes, cars, airplanes, scenery and the third time or more, I'd learn to draw things easier along with plans as a teenager and weekend classic car hobby shows. After I was able to win the NY state tech school competitions award for architecture and design and very soon after I was approached by Boeing Aircraft Company top architecture department man yet I declined because I wanted to prioritize families home improvements cheap or free for years and never expected return favors making sacrifices. Family proved to me independent business and more resources have made towns and attracts others, as various executives requested me as a teenager driving limousines part time, and I always make people laugh, so this adds confidence and ideas. They oftentimes repeatedly said they'd be happy to retire to a happier healthier farm type lifestyle or the country life, because you can't but your health or happiness in many ways. Some of those weekly property maintenance customers turned into home improvements customers and some of them are Chinese and Asian. Those are the only ones insisting on returning fair favor for years of favors before they grew more ways, as I'm always happy to share skills knowledge and abilities with other wiling to learn. Noticeably Asain people are more positive minded. 😊 Yet recent years many many young ladies have communicated hundreds of times wanting a good man for their family and thier business, because other large companies often respect a man more than women. So my renewed passport is ready to go to China and share business with others because we really need to improve our lives and promote modernization and our US greedy corporations are treating people as Sheeple and mislead our government into Trillions of Dollars more every year for free subsidies and the military industrial complex gets more Trillions of Dollars other ways. We veterans love our country but our government operates in corporations favors, with agendas for profits over people's interest 🙄 Hopefully things return towards traditions and virtues which proves best life long results as our grandparents teachings proved 👍 🙏 Thanks for your attention for modernization 😊

As more Chinese universities are moving up to the top of international prestige there is no more advantage to study abroad which would cost them multiple times the cost of studying in China.

Study as much as you can online for cheap and intern while in school so that you can earn some money while gaining skills and experience in your field. You can even likely study for free in many foreign countries such as China and Germany.

Going to school should be about self actualisation and maximising one’s talents and potential. It is a mistake especially for parents to equate education with earning potential. Class size and quality of teachers matter, and in many respects this where elite institutions enjoy significant advantages, especially at graduate levels where one can potentially work for Nobel laureates. But if we want to take about money, it is soft skills such as leadership ability and emotional intelligence that will matter most in the long run, and a common weakness among Confucian cultures that encourage blending in and avoid risk. Many of my book smart Berkeley undergraduate friends went on to get graduate degrees at Stanford or MIT and ended up working for places like Intel for 30 years and counting. Sure they all have nice houses and cars but they will never be mega millionaires as senior executives or kids who sold their startups.

The reality is much more nuanced that what was presented. On average, it is true that the degree you earn has low correlation to lifetime earning, but if you look at the truly elite schools, the situation is different. The study you presented aren't selective enough of what classify as elite. For example, I won't call Indiana University or Clemson University or University of Texas at Austin elite schools. Don't get me wrong. These are great schools, but they are not the elite schools I have in mind. The true elite schools are like MIT, Harvard, Stanford, Yale, Princeton etc... If you do an analysis of lifetime earnings of these graduates, you will find statistically significant difference compared to the rest, and the difference more than pay back the additional cost. In addition, the major you study plays a significant role in the correlation as well. There are majors that don't pay well no matter which university you go to. Therefore, we must be very specific in our analysis. Of course, you might say how many people can get into these elite schools, and you are right. Very few. But that's a different question. So, it is not true that the elite school degrees don't matter. They do. Outside of this small circle of elite schools, then the proposition is correct. The cost of tuition is not correlated to the lifetime earning of the students.

The selective school you go to becomes your identity, the proud and the few, more so than your professional status. People who talk negatively about these schools have an axe to grind because they or their kids did not go these schools. Friends and families whenever they see me, they talk trash about these schools and I just listen quietly, no response necessary, "Whatever", with a 🙄on my face while their faces become more intense 😡 as they talk on the subject . I went to one of these schools, and when I was young, it was a game changer with the ladies.😎🥰. So it's not all about money on where you go to school, there are other things that defines you as a person by going to these schools. which money can't buy. In the end it's all about what you want to be and by going to selective schools, these schools will forever define you whether you like it or no. By going to non-selective schools, the schools will not define you because you are dime a dozen.

My understanding is Some elite families get into elite schools in order to make connections with others from elite families. For example, look at president George Bush (the younger dull witted one) who amazingly got into Yale

“Finally there is encouraging trends in the US higher education. Thousands of adminisstrators are losing their jobs, entire department even universities are closing 0:18 …” Equating “encouraging trend” to people losing jobs in American universities. This guy definitely has some ill wills to America. The bias is stark. Most of the inventions that lead to the advances of the US and Europe’s economic strength came from American and Europe universities. Name one invention in modern time that didn’t come from one of higher institutions.

It’s good news for average Americans. In most these universities they have more administrators than professors, and they are paid more than the professors.

@@walkerpublications4418 The “ nonsense” is clearly yours. Universities are universities, higher learning institutions at which all modern inventions came from. I am a grad of the University of Michigan. In late 1970s, almost fifty years ago, we already started AI in our computer engineering curriculum. There maybe and should be cooperation between Universities and industries and innovations emerge from there. But almost always the new seed of knowledge are from the brilliant minds of higher learning institutions we call Colleges and Universities no matter what you dividing them by names. Steve Job was a graduate of a local community college in San Jose, not a research university. Bill Gates did not graduate from a research university, he dropped out. Elon Musk attended university of Pennsylvania, graduated with a bachelor’s degree, hardly from a research level. It is freedom and free thinkers that make the world go round with their independent innovations. This author’s view is sick and degenerate.

@@walkerpublications4418 The “nonsense” part is clearly yours. Steve Job pioneering in Apple computers and Iphone graduated from a community college in San Jose, CA. Hardly a research institution. Bill Gates, pioneering in software was a dropped out at Harvard undergraduate. Hardly at research level when he dropped out. Elon Musk obtained a bachelor degree in engineering at Upenn. Hardly at research level. Freedom and free thinkers that make this world go round. Free and critical thinkings are what the higher learning institutions in the West, we call colleges and universities teach students. Regardless of what you call them, universities are universities, the incubators of inventions from brilliant minds.
