Listen Later

A new poll conducted by The Wall Street Journal in collaboration with the University of Chicago found that 56% of Americans believe that a four-year degree is no longer worth the cost. Skepticism is highest among those aged 18 to 34, the target demographic for colleges. The poll also found that only 44% of women, regardless of political affiliation, believe that college is worth it. College enrollment is down by 1.3 million students over the past four years, equating to $60 billion in lost tuition revenue for colleges.
