Top-up will deter 67%

Article Abstract:

Two-thirds, 67%, of 16-year-olds in the United Kingdom may be deterred from attending university by plans to introduce top-up fees, according to a poll undertaken by the Liberal Democrat party of almost 2,500 students taking GCSE courses in 311 schools. The survey revealed that for these students, some of whom will be amongst the first to pay top-up fees when they are introduced in 2006, the possibility of running up high levels of debt will affect their decision to go to university.
