College Degrees With The HIGHEST Dropout Rates!

Which college degrees have the highest dropout rates? That is going to be the topic of today’s video. College dropout rates are a topic that aren’t discussed enough in my opinion as it’s a great indicator that something is wrong with either the major itself, or the university that you’re getting the degree from.

So what percent of people drop out of university? About 40%, probably much higher than you expected. Now some of them dropout because they wanted to switch universities or other miscellaneous random life reasons that have nothing to do with the school or the degree. But a significant amount of them end up quitting because they’re taking one of the hardest college degrees and they’re stressed, or because the expectation that they had in their head of what the major was going to be like was totally different than the reality, or because they realize (after spending a lot of money on college tuition usually) that the degree isn’t going to lead them to getting a job in that field, and they’re essentially getting paid to learn things they could study for free online (No seriously, you can take the same classes from the best universities in the world online for free with the same lectures, textbooks, and tests, you just don’t get the degree at the end.)

So how many people drop out of college every year? Over a million. And one thing that can be really tough about dropping out is if you don’t finish your college degree, unfortunately, you still have to pay the student loans you took out.

And what degree has the highest dropout rate? Well, you’ll have to watch the video to see, but go ahead and guess below!

Enjoy :)
