Deciding where to go to college is one of the biggest choices a person will ever make. However, while the traditional path often pushes the necessity of a degree, more people are starting to see the value in alternative routes that can be just as rewarding.  My guest this week is challenging the necessity of college degrees, and is here to share how she achieved business success by investing just $362 into her education.

This week on The Profit Express, I sit down with Hannah Maruyama, co-founder of Degree Free. Hannah, along with her husband Ryan, has dedicated her career to helping students avoid what she says is the costly mistake of pursuing unnecessary degrees. She shares her experience of leaving college and successfully transitioning into a tech career without a degree.

In this episode, Hannah discusses the importance of thinking strategically when it comes to college decisions. She shares tips on talking with your children about their future, and why the idea of “following your passion” may not be worth the cost.
