I went to a small liberal arts school in Canada. The equivalent type of school in the US would have cost ~8x as much and I think the education would have been quite comparable.

I still graduated with debt, but it was manageable and I paid it off quickly.

I was never the most studious student, but college is where I got into entrepreneurship, and it’s hard to say what would have happened otherwise.

So for me, it seems like it was worth it. It depends on the situation you put yourself in.
