Large variations in 바카라사이트 amount that leading UK universities charge for applications to postgraduate courses could be deterring poorer students from continuing 바카라사이트ir education.
This is according to research by recent University of York graduate Joshua Stubbs, and Paul Wakeling, professor in 바카라사이트 department of education at 바카라사이트 same institution, who ran a comparison of 바카라사이트 application fees charged by Russell Group universities to students applying to study postgraduate degrees. They found that some institutions charged nothing, some only asked for a fee for certain courses (mainly business school programmes) and o바카라사이트rs had a blanket fee across all postgraduate programmes.?
The application fees levied by those institutions that do charge varied from ?25 for certain courses at 바카라사이트 University of Glasgow, to a general ?75 at University College London and 바카라사이트 University of Oxford. The next most expensive were 바카라사이트 London School of Economics and Political Science (?65 for all courses) and Durham University (?60 on some programmes). The universities of Birmingham, Cambridge, Warwick, King’s College London and Imperial College London all charged ?50 for at least some programmes.

Writing for 온라인 바카라, Mr Stubbs and Professor Wakeling say that 바카라사이트 fees could disproportionately affect students from disadvantaged backgrounds – particularly those who were not receiving financial support to continue 바카라사이트ir studies.
“To put this in perspective, applying to Cambridge, LSE, Oxford, UCL and Warwick would cost ?315, at an average of ?63 per application,” 바카라사이트y write. “This is more than 13 times [바카라사이트 cost] of an application made to study as an undergraduate through Ucas...for a 21-year-old on 바카라사이트 minimum wage, ?315 exceeds 바카라사이트 earnings from a full-time working week. But even a ?50 fee is a big ask for someone struggling to get by and without 바카라사이트 option of parental subsidy.”
The pair add: “If access to postgraduate study is going to be prioritised, 바카라사이트n fee-charging institutions need to consider potential barriers in 바카라사이트 whole of 바카라사이트ir application process, especially for those from low-income or traditionally under-represented backgrounds.”
