melissa: this is a big investment. a chance on this person and then the person going and spending all the time, how often does it happen somebody gets to the job, you though what, this isn't what i thought it was going to be? >> yeah. there is always that chance but if you compare it to, and again with our program practice, we have pretty high graduation rate. we work really hard to make sure people that are ready and help them and help support them in those struggles but if you compare it to what are most young people doing to launch their career. they will sit in classes and wonder the whole time if it is worth it and come out after four or five years with debt and still don't know if it is worth it and still have the experience in the first job. i would argue, even if you go work someplace, come say i don't have a lot of skills, let me start with low pay, so i can learn, three, four, six months in, not a graduate fit, you do that three or four times you will have better starting point of your career, spend same amou
