COLLEGE AFFORDABILITY: A new poll has found that a majority of Californians no longer believe a University of California or Cal State University education is affordable.
University of California and Cal State University are now considered unaffordable by a majority of Californians, according to the findings of a new poll.
The results of the April 2022 California Opinion Surveys found that even though 77% of Californians strongly value higher education, they have serious concerns about affordability, and how far a four-year degree will get them. According to the poll, 60% of Californians believe UC schools — such as UCLA, UC San Diego, and UC Irvine — are not affordable. But strikingly, a majority of Californians also believe the more economic college choice in the Golden State, Cal State universities, are also unaffordable at 55%.
The poll also found that 63% of Californians believe that a four-year degree is no longer enough for a successful and profitable career —"many pathways" are needed. One of those pathways could conceivably include time at a community college, skills training center, vocational school, or technical education school, with 84% of Californians agreeing that degrees and certificates from these institutions are valuable.
