    A: Yes. Employers covet candidates with college degrees. A college degree could be the difference between getting a promotion or being passed over. On average, college graduates are more successful within their respective careers and earn more money over the course of their life than non-college graduates.

    According to the U.S. Department of Commerce, people with a Bachelors degree earn an average of 98% more income in their life than those that did not earn their degree. People with Masters degrees earn, on average, 170% more.

    Q: What is the cost?
