> and earn on average 22k more than high school diploma would. Let’s dig into that even a little and see what we get. For starter they’re talking about on average. Just follow the reference in your article and you get to hear [0]. Look at how wide those range are for the college grads. 25% of college grads don’t earn more than the median (50% of) non-college grad. If you happen to be one of those 25% college might not look like the slam sunk financial decision. And I’m willing to bet that what percentile you fall into isn’t random, but strongly correlated to major and college.
