Studying a 4 years degree is the minimal requirement for many good jobs today. A lot of working adults went back to college just to get the certification for a Bachelor or a Master so they will get pay more for what they do. And most of them do it part time while still working full time at their present job. This will take a longer time for each student to complete the degree. Instead of 4 years, they may take up to 7-8 years for a Bachelor degree.
