Funding
FINANCE should not be a barrier to education, say university bosses.
They will tell students, parents and teachers next week that anyone who wants to go to university can afford it.
An evening talk and Q&A session at Plymouth University next Thursday will explore the issues young people might encounter as they consider applying for university places.
Would-be students will be given advice on the various forms of financial assistance that are available.

“It's all very well for uni bosses to boast that anyone can afford to leave university tens of thousands in debt with little chance of a job that will pay it off. They never had to face that prospect themselves.”
