I absolutely loved college and can understand the dilemma.

Most the social aspect for me though came from living near the college and not the actual classes.

If I was in this situation, I would just move as physically close to a major university as I could. Most of my social interaction at college came from eating lunch and all the people I met during lunch.

Actually paying tuition though for this reason is as bad an investment as I can think of.

Actually not a bad idea, thanks.

True, but my 'smart' financial decisions have led to a life I'm pretty unhappy with.
