Why people attend college or university

The title of this article is an example question of the writing part of TOEFL iBT test.
Today, I would like try to wirte about this answer in 10 minutes.

------------

In my point of view, there are 2 major reason to attend college or university.

First, a degree is very important to get a good job, especiall in Japan. In Japan, many job offers require a degree in college or university even if the job is no relation with the major of the applicant. For example, a company I applied before was reqruiting various type of jobs, but almost all positions require a degree of college or university except factory works. Therefore, to attend college or university gives students more chance to get a new job. This is the one reason that people attend college or univeristy.

Second, people enjoy college/univeristy life as "holidays in life". In Japan, both of children and adults spend very busy life. Children always take paper tests and think about how to go to a good junior high school, high school, or university. Similary, many people have worken long year without a long vacation after graduate college or university. On the other hand, college/university life gives students much more free time compare to the other life stage. Hence, many students attend college or university because they want to spend more free time and enjoy the campus life.

In conclusion, I stated 2 major reason why people attend college or university in my point of view. The one is a big merit for job hunting for freshman, the other is to take "holidays of life".
