What made taking on the debt worth it as opposed to going to a university that offers a full ride?

I have to decide between attending a school close to where I live for a full ride or my dream school that hasn't provided enough aid. I've heard a lot of arguements explaining why I should take the full ride, but I really hope to attend my dream school

If you had to support yourself financially in college, how did you manage building your resume with internships while still making money Did you ever have to choose one over the other??

Thinking about going into accounting, I know internships are important. However, I also know I have to pay off student loans while in school.

Why do people say in order to succeed in life you have to get a degree in college?

Do we really need college to become successful. I’m genuinely interested because why give all this money to not become successful. Then a person who does not go becomes successful and not in debut.

Are internships worth the time investment if they don't give you money Are paid internships hard to come by? What would make a non-paid internship worthwhile??

I want to work as an architect but I don't know if I will be able to afford a non-paid internship after college because I will certainly have loans to pay off.

As new generations are emerging, should attending college still be consider as important as it used to be when many millionaires and billionaires contradict the need for a formal education?
