Can you put a price on education?

 "An investment in knowledge pays the interest."

Can you put a price on education?


Once upon a time the world was different; education used to be available to everyone without the fear of student debt following them around for the most of their working life. Sadly times have changed and so have education prices. 

I talked to Celso Lopez earlier, a guidance counsellor at City of Westminster college:

Do you think the increase of price education will lower the amount of youths and young adults going to college and university?

Would it be better for potential students to study more than one topic if the price of education stays as it is or increases in a few years?


How many students come to you asking for advice about student fees?


Would having a college or university education really affect your chances of getting a job?

Is the price of education worth it?

An article written by Sean Coughlan writes: "Fees will rise to £6,000, with an upper tier of £9,000 if universities ensure access for poorer students." a dramatic and very noticeable increase from the current £3,290 per year. How will students who already struggle to pays fees manage a near double in prices?
