Should the UK abolish university tuition fees?

Yes, for medical students who will later pursue a job in the NHS

No, education is not a right it is an advantage.

Yes, but only for degrees which are for jobs such as Nursing, Ambulance Service, and Policing. However, only reduce for other degrees.

I feel that tuition fees should be abolished for citizens of the UK, however I feel that it should not be so easy to get into University. Every man and his dog has a degree in something or another these days, meaning that the value of a degree is diminished. There is so much competition for graduate jobs it is not worth applying for them. Degrees should be for the best achieving acadmics - OR for those who are GENUINELY pursuing a particular career that only a degree will unlock. Not just something to do after college / 6th Form for lack of anything else.

Yes. Free education enables everybody from all backgrounds the chance to improve their lives

Free for subjects like medical or science where we want the best regardless of income. other degrees should be paid for and improve the quality of subjects

no but needs to be greatly reduced. Core subjects like nursing, doctors ect become free. Reduce the amount of courses needed, and make them more relevant to real world industries

the current state of universities is a sham
you have allowed london and other city universities to become a breeding ground for mental illness and activist recrutment

Tuistion could also be done by AI so why we still employing teachers? get ROBOTS in

Yes, on a sliding scale depending on family income, similar to child benefit rules, to level the playing field for students from lower income families.

Yes, but only after the student finishes university. If someone goes there and doesn’t get anything out of it then they should pay the full amount as they have wasted time and a place that could have benefited others. Someone who finishes uni with top grades should get a reduction to how much they pay as they have put in the time and effort

Yes, but on a merit based system with an overhaul of degree courses to make them more relevant.with fewer but higher calibre universities and should not be "pay to win" and it feels like current system is more designed to keep people out of the unemployed stats

Tuition fees should be a reflection on the degree and resources required for that degree. With a cap to prevent runaway quotes.

It should be reduced, it should be free for certain areas such as NHS and free for low income families

They should be reduced and everyone should pay something back towards them no matter what their income.

Tuition fees should be dependent on the performance of the respective universities. Universities which support students and obtain higher degree standards and a higher percentage of students graduating into relevant work following their degree should be allowed to charge the most. With poorer performing universities should be supported to improve.

Yes, the relevance of a degree in the current job market is irrelevant as most companies only utilise it as a buffer to filter candidates and not as any actual requirement for jobs as the demand for experience in entry level positions has become ridiculous.

Courses beneficial to society or businesses where the students use what they have learned should be free, others Courses should have to be paid for

No, but ensure that fees are going toward research or development funding, rather than the pockets of higher level faculty.

there should a flat rate regardless of course & location which is based on the length of the course only and it should cost more for those coming from outwith the UK

Yes, but only for low and middle income families or students who don’t have support- must be a UK citizen.

The UK should abolish tuition fees for any job that requires more than 6 years of education. Anything less than 6 years of education should have financial support based on their income and financial state.

Yes, reduced the amount of courses there are. And make doctors and nurse qualifications free. Maybe make nursing an NVQ

There should be a reasonable cap, of £1,000, for example. That would generate some maintenance budget for institutions without limiting access to higher education.

Remove courses that don’t have a direct correlation with an industry or job sector. Increase and all make universities harder to get into so it filters out the dross and pulls through the best

yes in certain circumstances - low income, with a sliding scale of support, and for high demand skills regardless of income

Abolish fees, and close universities which are of a lower standard. Encourage students to take other paths (not university)

Remove the fees if they complete the course but pay full fee if not complete. For those that do complete tax the companies that require degrees for their vacancies

Some jobs require a university degree,and for those that require it as an entry level,then in that instance it should be free for those struggling financially and/or is a must to get a degree.

End of degree has a grade. 1st class is 70%+, pay 30% of the loan. 2;1 is 60%+, pay 40% of the loan etc.

There needs to be more support for people from lower income families and areas of lower opportunity.

A graduate tax but this should range depending on the impact the graduate has for society, if they provide great benefits, such as a doctor then the tax should be lower.

I think they could definitely be reduced and the inflation on the loans should be abolished. If we require people to have degree to get the jobs we want them to have, then think about abolishing tuition fees

Only for jobs that are in high demand and allow current graduates to re-train if they already have a degree.

For low income families and studying fields of high demand in public sector eg medicine and education

No, but they should be reduced for both UK students and Commonwealth students (Including ex commonwealth members like Hong Kong)

University degrees in fields that are necessary for society (STEM subjects, law etc.) should be free for all. Degrees like Classics, which aren’t that useful to society, should cost money.

No, and tuition fees should be set by the market without any government intervention, funding or subsidy.

No, but abolish the interest rates on student loan repayments, a higher skilled workforce is beneficial to the country long term.

The government needs to invest more in the sector and overhaul the financial model to make it sustainable.

No, the UK should return to sending no more than 10-15% of the population to university, whilst purging the universities of the gay race communists who teach there

No because they provide funding for research, but they should be decreased for citizens and low income families

It should be reduced, with extra support for low income families. If tuition fees still exist, they should be at least partly government funded in order for fees to be reduced whilst maintaining quality of education.

I think for some basic courses they should abolish fees, but courses that take like 4+ years or are just really intense courses shouldn’t be, eg law, doctor

No, only for low-income families alongside those that are studying - or plan to study - subjects relevant to fields that are of high job demand or otherwise provide a vital service to the country.

Mixed - encourage professions with low uptake rate by lowering or abolishing fees for certain fields.

No, but they should be reduced for UK Citizens and the system should be reformed to make it affordable for the whole population.

They should not be abolished, however subsidies for students who are from poorer backgrounds and doing studies in fields of high demand should be given.

I think they should be there but be reduced and I think and bursaries should be increased for the poorest members of society.

Universities should be run like non-profit organizations and the students fees should cover the cost of tutors, facilities etc. The university should not be allowed to make enough money to invest in oil and weapons manufacturing.
