re: 1 out of 4 bachelor degrees and nearly half of masters degrees have a negative ROI

USC is in Los Angeles. I can see why a young dreamer would go to school there to study acting. I don’t think it’s a wise choice, but I can see why a teenager would think it is.

This is the reason the thread is broken.

If you can get accepted to USC’s film school, the cost is irrelevant, despite the fact it’s a junk degree anywhere else.

A quick google search shows how many A-list actors have film degrees from Harvard, Yale, USC, etc.

Interestingly, the most prestigious degree at UConn was puppetry.

It was an immediate pipeline to Jim Henson in NYC. But, you needed to carry a minimum 3.8 into your junior year for acceptance into the program. Most competitors paid out of state tuition…and many sophomore tears were shed when they finished the fourth semester with “only” a 3.79….
