How is having a college degree good for your overall well being ?

Answer 1

College proves that you can do work in a timely and orderly fashion. Your GPA is a metric of how hard you work which is why companies like to higher people with higher GPA's because it indicates that they tend to work harder. It also provides a structured learning environment which is typically superior to learning on your own (in most areas). Overall, a college degree simply shows that you can put in the effort required to successfully execute tasks.
