I decided not to go the University because I'd rather be paid to learn, than pay to learn. I'm 33 now, and have 15 years of experience in my field. I have a professional network that is incredible. I learned everything I know from online courses, or online documentation. People who graduated college are years behind, and in debt for it. So my argument is that a university is a poor place to build a professional network in comparison to your actual profession. Especially upwards where you will have contacts several places higher than you developed over years. A professional environment introduces you to new developments in your field.
