Students in third level education have never had it as bad as today. Faced with crippling tuition fees, mountains of debt, low pay and poor housing, it is no wonder more and more are opting out of university.
Since 1998, students have faced tuition fees and student loans, leaving them with average debts of over £12,000 upon graduation. This system, far from making higher education more accessible, has seriously disadvantaged students from poorer backgrounds. Students from more affluent families can afford to take out smaller loans and get more help with paying their debt off.
