What would be a thesis statement for an essay about how college is not worth the cost

Question

I am writing an essay on how college isnt worth the cost. So what would be the thesis statement?

Answer 1

Another statement you may consider:

 

The cost of a college education far outweighs its benefits.  You may then gather, analyze, and report facts to support the statement.  For example, the years it takes to pay off thousands (or even tens of thousands) of dollars of student debt, the high unemployment (as mentioned by the tutor) or underemployment of college graduates, etc.

Answer 2

Simply stated, college degrees are not worth their cost, evidenced by the number of unemployed college graduates.

 

I would be looking for different words to use in place of "Simply stated" and "evidenced".   I think there are words that would be more meaningful in these places in the sentence.  Also, use an adjective to describe number.
