Article Abstract:

An analysis of the long-term impact, both psychological and economic, of dropping out on one-time university students. It is argued that the mismarketing of university education in an attempt to expand the number of people becoming students will inevitably result in more and more people simply dropping out when they realise that the reality of university education does not match what they were led to believe it would be.
