Universities have been offering cash rewards to persuade students to join their courses

Sinead says she"always wanted to do" media and Spanish.

"Many universities have options for media so when I looked at the courses that didn't have Spanish, I was tempted.""This could affect their lives," says Nicola Dandridge from the Office for Students. "So it's really important they look at the broader qualifications and the sorts of learning they're going to get."

Sinead says you're"better off taking the year out and considering 'Is this course going to lead me to where I want to go, is it going to take me to the career I want?'"Clearing scholarships are seen as important by some in getting people into university.

This cannot be a surprise surely...

Bums on seats, nothing else matters to many of them......

Is the whole thing about what can be made out of the students for the wages and pensions of the tutors, rather than education I wonder.

🤔 Could just lower the cost of actually going to Uni. Just saying. Would probably help more in general. You know. Rather than this garbage.

So much for student debt huh

Like more information on how that is to work

Wish they did back in the day.

Why not just reduce the fees? I thought that they are all cash strapped. Obviously not.

In the U.S. the instructor can subtract points or even fail a student after a certain number of absences.
