You're fooling yourself if you don't think a majority of schools (private, charter, etc) colleges, churches, organizations are all about helping people. Granted you can land a good paying job with a 4 year degree, 2 year associates or no degree it is generally perceived that a college education never hurts your chances (unless they wanted to hire someone with less educational background for salary purposes) but help. The idea that having a degree gets you a job is so very far from the truth. Just like saying school and colleges want you to succeed.
