Government should refuse student loans to anyone under 21. Let them live and work in the real world before making such a decision. I bet this would cut down on the number of people enrolling in useless programs like gender studies or literature. Too many immature kids are treating university like an extension of highschool. It isn't, and this practice should be discouraged. Most highschool grads should be doing vocational training tbqh.

18 and will finish next year but I would go to France to get master after graduation
I can't even speak French at the moment tho

I agree with most of what you said but I don't think humanities are a meme, quite the opposite(except gender studies etc...) but more that less people should specialize in them.

Too bad you go now that the price went up

Parents taught me when I was 3-5

You mean the tuition of unis in France?
Didn't know that :(

I don't have a problem with the humanities per se, I just think that there are too many people enrolling in these programs. In my province the local university liberal arts department will take in any fool who graduates highschool with a 75% average. I believe that this policy does a lot more harm than good. They can't get accepted into competitive programs so they end up taking massive loans to spend 4 years learning shit that won't get them jobs. Most of these people are not going to do graduate work or become professors or whatever. They will finish university no more employable than when they graduated highschool, but now they have a 40k debt over their shoulders and a 4 year gap in their work history.

Is this common in Colombia? Here most people don't finish highschool until they are 18.

Not speaking the native language isn't a problem at Canadian university. Supposedly foreign applicants need to pass a proficiency test, but there are a lot of student's there who don't speak our language. I think the schools just like getting all thos foreign monies.
