Hmm, a thought provoking question...
I can kind of relate since I only have an associate's degree to my name and my partner has a bachelor's, so in that sense she is the more "educated" of us two. At least from personal experience, dating and therefore attraction at it's core has nothing to do with something external like academic background, college degrees, job, status, etc. It all comes down to the person's confidence in him or herself (especially if you're a man), which comes from first living your own life, experiencing as much of life as there is to offer, and focusing on continued personal growth. When my now girlfriend approached me in community college, I wasn't actively looking to date or anything, I was just focused on my own life and thinking about how to further improve my life. By this time, I had had the opportunity to live abroad in Europe for 5 years which in hindsight helped me build confidence in myself and allowed me to widen my perspective and have a more open mind after seeing and experiencing more of the world. It may sound cliche, but it is true that when you stop caring about girls and obsessing over them, and instead focus fully on becoming a better version of yourself, you will begin to attract them instead of you chasing them around.
Therefore, to answer your question, unless acquiring a certain college degree is part of what drives you, excites you, and what you want to do for yourself, a college degree is not important at all when it comes to dating.
