Blog 3: For Profit Colleges

I found the video about for-profit colleges very informative. The video exposed a side of colleges I never knew existed. I have many friends that have gone to these for-profit colleges and are suffering the same problems that were pointed out in thevideo such as debt problems and difficulties attaining employment. Some of the cases are sad because some of these people saw this as an opportunity to relieve themselves of financial troubles. Instead, they find themselves deep in a much bigger debt. At the same time, it's the person's responsibility to find out if the college they're about to enroll in is accredited. It would be irresponsible if a person wouldn't check the value of the certification given by the establishment. I believe that if people do their research on their college, this problem wouldn't occur.
