As many of us
know, higher education has many associated benefits, not only for a person’s
career, but also for such things as a person’s happiness, well-being and
lifestyle. Albert Cyprys, currently a student at Fairfield University, knows
well the benefits of a college education, and is hopeful to be the recipient of
its many advantages sometime in the near future.
Albert Cyprys
choose to enter college based on what he believes are the primary, perhaps even
most interesting, benefits of a university-level education. He lists several of
these advantages below.
Salary Potential
According to a
recent study, a person with a college-level education tends to earn a higher
median salary than one with just a high school diploma. There tends to be a
direct correlation, says Albert Cyprys, between a college education and higher
earning potential.
Lower Stress
Another study, as
Albert Cyprys knows, has shown a link between lower stress and college degrees.
A person with a university degree tends to have not only a lower level of
stress, but also lower blood pressure when compared to those without.
Healthier
Lifestyle
Lower blood
pressure and stress aren’t the only health benefits associated with a college
education. Those with a college education, says Albert Cyprys, tend to be less
likely to engage in unhealthy activities, such as smoking, and are more likely
to engage in healthy physical activity and exercise.
Overall Career
Satisfaction
Those with a
college education tend to have higher levels of satisfaction when it comes to
career.
