SHOULD UNIVERSITIES COST LESS?

Universities can be expensive and because of this, I feel that the costs involved should be lowered.

Firstly, the student loan scheme means that students have a lot of debt.This means it  has to be paid back  which can add up and to a lot  of money in three to four years at university.

Another reason to lower the costs of tertiary education is young adults get put off going to university. Again it  is because of the debt they will have to pay off afterwards.

Another factor is students who fail on a paper or two will have to repeat these lessons. Even more debt will be added on to their education costs.

Lastly, young adults from wealthy families are probably more likely to attend university. This is because they have the means to pay for their education and not have to go into debt. What does this mean?It means access to university is restricted to the more wealthy members of the population, which is unfair to others. 

In conclusion, I hope that universities cost less in the future so many more young adults can enjoy tertiary education!
