You can't find a job if you don't have one because they give those job to illegals.
You can't find one if you do have an education because the job market is full.

Overpriced and not worth it unless youre going into some specific field that needs it. I dropped out 3semesters in and started a business with my dad

Expensive, but the loans aren't predatory. The learning and effort curve are pretty steep, so first year is a dawdle, second year is difficult, and you feel totally unprepared for third year. Thankfully it levels out for fourth and Masters.
Having student organisations is nice for some, but they're focused around interests as they relate to degrees, so I feel like they're not social for anyone outside that specific field. Plenty of STEM degrees just don't have any reason to have a club presence, so you get groups like comp-sci who are a collection of all sorts of nerds, but they tend to naturally exclude anyone who isn't highly tech-literate. Most after-class socialising being at the campus pub is nice and casual, but it makes day-drinking appear normal, and encourages people who might not drink to start.
There's way too much support for students struggling academically, but nothing for those who struggle socially; a huge barrier for entry to the really helpful stuff. Private chats where people post everything from rumours and tips about the course, all the way to answers and guidance on assignments, are locked behind being in the cool-kid's club. You can't get an invite unless you know the right people, and unless you're willing to put yourself out there, are able to make friends with the fun attractive people who cheat, become willing to day-drink and go to clubs etc. you'll never get in. The best you can do is be friendly with someone in the know who might share with you some important details every so often.
