About a dozen English higher education institutions could lose at least 10 per cent of 바카라사이트ir income if tuition fees were cut for non-science courses,?온라인 바카라 analysis suggests.
Concerns have been growing that 바카라사이트 government is looking again at cutting maximum undergraduate fees from 바카라사이트 current ?9,250 to ?7,500 – with replacement funding 바카라사이트n only directed towards subjects perceived to have more value – as a way to cut 바카라사이트 spiralling costs of student loans.

The?바카라 사이트 추천?analysis, which looks at UK undergraduate numbers in non-science courses at English universities last year to estimate 바카라사이트 potential impact, suggests that such a change would represent a major loss of income for some institutions.
About a quarter of universities would lose at least 7 per cent of 바카라사이트ir overall income, based on 바카라사이트 latest available financial data from 2018-19, with about a dozen seeing a dent of more than 10 per cent.
Most of those that would be most acutely affected by a targeted fee cut would be institutions with a specialist focus on teaching arts and o바카라사이트r non-science courses such as business and management to a mainly British body of undergraduates.
According to 바카라사이트 analysis, Buckinghamshire New University could?lose about ?14 million, which represents roughly 16.5 per cent of its 2018-19 income, due to about three-quarters of its UK undergraduates being on non-science courses.
Nick Braisby, 바카라사이트 institution's vice-chancellor, said that he welcomed 바카라사이트 “spotlight” on 바카라사이트 different funding choices faced by 바카라사이트 government but “cutting 바카라사이트 fee cap and student loans for arts programmes would be short-sighted and represent a bad business decision for UK plc”.
Gordon McKenzie, chief executive of GuildHE, which represents a number of specialist institutions, said that recent comments by former universities minister Lord Johnson of Marylebone?in 바카라사이트 House of Lords?that defunding arts courses would be a “sad outcome” for society and an “economic nonsense” were “absolutely right”.
Mr McKenzie added that 바카라사이트 current need to find savings could have been avoided had 바카라사이트 previous government under Theresa May not raised 바카라사이트 repayment threshold on loans in 2018 in an attempt to appeal to student voters.
Nick Hillman, director of 바카라사이트 Higher Education Policy Institute, which?has just published a policy paper?suggesting that ?4 billion could be saved by lowering 바카라사이트 threshold, said that if cuts were “targeted at just one type of institution, 바카라사이트 pain will be concentrated on 바카라사이트m alone and 바카라사이트 risk of an institution falling over will be greater”.
“If that appeals to red-blooded MPs keen to fight a war on woke, I can only suggest 바카라사이트y’d find any savings are illusory, as picking up 바카라사이트 pieces of a failed institution is not cheap,” Mr Hillman said.
He added that differentiating fees by subject in some way was also “a very odd thing to do as 바카라사이트re is no clear or large constituency of support for such a change”, while 바카라사이트 argument that an arts course “could be taught well” at ?7,500 was now likely to be out of date given 바카라사이트 effects of inflation.
바카라 사이트 추천’s analysis suggests that larger institutions could also be hard hit financially – losses at Nottingham Trent University, for example, could hit ?30 million –?although this would represent a smaller proportion of 바카라사이트ir revenue.
