    At it’s best you’re paying (or better, your country is paying) to learn how to learn, with a specific discipline as a workspace. As with so much else it has enshittified due to rampant greed and power’s fear of a well educated populace, still, if you go into it with that goal, some vestige can still be had.

      At place where I teach, only small minority of students pays tuition, most have their education paid by state.

      Saddest part is that reason to study for most of them is simply pressure from their parents or from peers, so good luck finding motivation in there.
