Why now?
Coursework cannot center around real-world work experience.
Why is this a problem?
Students are less prepared when they enter the job market because they have not had sufficient hands-on, real-world industry experience. This not only makes them less desirable to potential employers but it impacts their confidence level and self-worth as a potential employee.
Now, more than ever, colleges need to provide a broader, more in-depth experience for students.
WRX exists to fill this need.
What’s the Problem?
Why now?
Why now?
Colleges are finding themselves on a very slippery slope due to a serious, long-term trend of declining enrollment.
A growing number of people are no longer sure the juice is worth the squeeze.
A few contributing factors for this are:
01
Cultural change in attitude
Society’s overall confidence in higher education seems to be waning. Some people worry that they will commit their time and money only to buried under an avalanche of debt and unable to gain employment in a weak and very unpredictable job market.
​
​
02
Fewer college-age students
The biggest structural reason is simple: there are fewer 18 year olds today. Birth rates dropped sharply after the Great Recession, and that cohort is now reaching college age.
​
Undergraduate enrollment has already fallen 15% since 2010.
03
Rising cost vs. perceived value
The cost of college has outmatched what is affordable today. Many students (and their parents) are struggling to find ways to pay and question the ROI: “Is college worth it?”
Surveys show that over half of non-college-bound students cite cost as the main reason to delay attending or not attend at all.
The average cost of college in the United States is a whopping $38,270 per student per year, including books, supplies, and daily living expenses.*
