Reasons to go to uni… …and reasons not to.
My friends are going to university.
That’s not a reason. Don’t go!
I want to be a Doctor, I know what being a doctor involves and I know I must have a degree to be one.
Definitely go, Doctors are among the highest paid graduates.
I want to be a civil engineer, or a scientist.
Definitely go, you must have the mathematical knowledge to do these as careers. This must be acquired through university.
I’m interested in sociology, I enjoyed it at A-Level.
Don’t go! Read a book in sociology if it interests you.
I don’t know what to do with myself.
Do something else! There’s a high chance of you dropping out, or changing course, which is expensive.
Only go to university if you know what you want to be, and it’s a necessary path in achieving your goal.
