Welcome to It's Gonna Be Fine, the podcast where we highlight current topics and trends you may have missed, cut through the noise, and dig deeper to understand what's really going on.

This week, Matti takes a closer look at the changing landscape of higher education: the rising cost of college, declining enrollment, shifting birth rates, international students, online education, and the growing question of whether a traditional four-year degree still delivers enough value to justify the price.

And it’s not as simple as “college is too expensive.” What are we actually paying for? Is it the education, the degree, the career opportunities, the network, or the college experience itself? And if schools lower their prices, can they still provide the quality and experience students expect?

Add an increasingly unpredictable job market and rapidly changing technology to the mix, and the old assumptions about higher education start looking a little shaky.

So when it comes to college… is the math still mathing?
