In my opinion, I believe that everyone should attend a university. To begin with, if you go to a university, you can learn valuable skills. For instance, you can learn about math, history, or another language. A second reason is that you can be hired for a great job if you go to a university. Many employers only want to hire people from really good colleges. Finally, when you attend a university, you will make your friend and family very proud. They worked very hard for you, so it is nice to repay them by working hard yourself. To conclude, it is necessary to go to a university.

In my opinion, I believe that everyone doesn’t need to attend a university. To begin with, if you go to a university, you may waste lots of money. For instance, college tuition can be very expensive. Many people don’t have the money to attend really nice colleges. A second reason is that you may not learn things that you actually need. If you become a doctor, you probably won’t need history classes or some other classes so they are a waste of time. Finally, some people are better off working straight away. If they don’t have the desire or passion to study very hard, it is not smart to attend a university. To conclude, it is not necessary to go to a university.
