I didn’t go to college due to circumstances. I don’t regret and will make the same choice given the same circumstances. But if you can, I think it’s the safest decision to go. People in this thread give a bunch of reasons, which I challenge: 1. Immigration: I’m 25 from a shithole country. I have lived and worked in Asia, Europe and America. A bit more difficulty, but nothing major. Surely with a German passport this wouldn’t be a biggie. 2. Learning: Admittedly, the internet has a lot of noise. But there are good resources like MIT OCW, teachyourselfcs, etc. I will argue some universities are worst than some of the online resources. 3. Social connection: This wouldn’t be a problem if you have hobbies, community and a life outside work. You can always make life long friends. 4. You will learn or experience something vague: Please be specific? Usually, there are other ways to learn or experience these things. The biggest issue I had to deal with was I thought all the college folks were better than me. But that went away when I joined bigger companies and started interviewing and working with college folks. They were not special.
