Actress Chloë Moretz’s future plans don’t involve traditional classroom settings or graduation caps as she doesn’t plan to attend college.

“I love education. It’s always been a huge part of my life. I’ve always really prided myself on being a smart young woman,” she said in an interview with Bustle while promoting her new film, “Neighbors 2.”

She continued, “But the problem I have with it right now is that I’ve made all my own money since I was a kid, and I just really don’t agree with our educational system right now, with the fact that I would have to be spending so much of my hard-earned money to go to college to get a higher education.”

The actress who is reportedly worth an estimated $8 million doesn’t want to pay back large sums of money for a college degree—a common occurrence for new graduates. According to Forbes, 1 percent of new graduates accumulate more than $40,000 in student debt. In addition, “student loan debt has reached a new milestone, crossing the $1.2 trillion mark—$1 trillion of that in federal student loan debt.”
