Pros/Cons of dropping out of college after a year?

cons: it is always a big advantage to have graduated with a degree to prove your hardwork and success. being not able to graduate and not educated well will lead to refusal of your job application. many companies always look at your college background and transcript of record for your ability and traits. most likely, degree holders tend to be accepted by companies even though they are not that intelligent but devoted.

pros: although drop outs of college, bill gates, steve jobs, einstein, and etc, were all successful because of their abilities and intelligence. maybe someday you could be one of them if you continue to do what you are good at even out of school.

Cons of Dropping Out:

You'll have wasted a year of time and money.

You'll be passing up the chance to learn and discover new interests.

Once you drop out, you're unlikely to go back.

Without a degree, you'll have trouble finding decent employment.

Without decent employment, you'll struggle to make ends meet.

If you're always struggling, you and your future family will have a poor quality of life.

Pros of Dropping Out:

Can't think of any.

That's terrible. Letting Y!A decide your fate I mean. Let me introduce you to coursera.org where you can learn introductory courses for free from prominent universities. See if you dig anything they offer. If you don't look for a different path in life. Your life is what YOU make out of it. Sensible yahoo-answerers can only offer you sensible suggestions. Chances are the more educated you are the more sensible answers you will be able to provide and the more you will be able to distinguish sensible answers from their counterparts. Good luck.

By dropping out you essentially lose all of your first-year tuition money, leaving you with just your high school diploma to tackle the job market with. However, you do have options

I don't usually suggest dropping out, but it really doesn't make sense to stay in school during these economic times if you are not interested in anything. If you are taking loans out and incurring debt than I would suggest dropping out if you don't find anything that peaks your interest in the next year.
