Compare the total cost of your degree against expected lifetime earnings to calculate whether college is a worthwhile financial investment.
We compare lifetime earnings with a degree vs. without a degree, then subtract total loan costs. A positive ROI means the degree pays off financially over your career.
On average, bachelor's degree holders earn $1.2M more over their lifetimes than high school graduates. But this varies enormously by major — engineering and computer science majors far outpace arts or humanities majors.
