The reality is that while some JWs do get an eduction, they aren't in the norm and tend to fall into two categories
they're already viewed as "spiritually weak"
they come from a "powerful" JW family
JW elders who encourage their children to go to college/university and who advise others to do the same will likely be removed as an elder. This was taught at the last elders' meeting I attended with the Circuit Overseer.The WT Society is afraid of educated people who will be able to rationally see through flawed logic of their teachings.

The memory of my own suffering has prevented me from ever shadowing one young soul with the superstitions of the Christian religion.
