Nope, college was the best decision I ever made. Nowadays people without are at a huge disadvantage. This doesn't mean the folks without are SOL or anything. I just like to stack the deck in my favor.

Nope.
First in my family to go to college and zero regrets.
Added bonus... met my husband while we were both undergrads (different schools though).

I regret not going sooner. Now that I am older, it's harder to attend.

No way. College gave me memories to last a lifetime... truly a spectacular experience, and I have a career I love.

That said, one can still be successful without going to college, but for me, college was the right choice.

I regret not going earlier (and when I was offered a scholarship)
I ended up going much later, which was much harder, and I missed out on the whole "college-life"
And I regret not managing my loans better.

But I do not regret going back at all.

Great experiences, memories, pride, and a degree that so far has served me well.

Overall no I do not regret going to College but I don't use the degree for my profession so the reality is that it was a waste of time and money.
