College Cents

Is college really worth it? The answer can be surprisingly more complicated than you'd expect. Let's find out. It's not just a matter of tuition vs. higher income. It's about student loan debt. It's about school choice. It's about job prospects. It's about income expectations. It's about savings and opportunity costs. Everyone's situation is unique and there are no one size fits all answers. Let's weight the many factors and find out if college plans will lead to a successful and profitable career or a lifetime of debt.

College Cents will estimate college costs for your chosen school compared to expected earnings for the chosen job and industry. We'll also calculate the estimated student loan debt and take into account scholarships and grants.
