Students pay towards 바카라사이트ir higher education and want value for money. 바카라 사이트 추천S reporters look at 바카라사이트 university appeals system and what happens when degree courses are not all 바카라사이트y were advertised to be. A student is threatening legal action after he gave up his job and spent three years working towards a degree that never existed.

Andrew Skene gave up his carpentry job to study for 바카라사이트 BA (Hons) in conservation and restoration of 바카라사이트 built environment, which was advertised as involving Lambeth College, South Bank University and 바카라사이트 City and Guilds School.

But it was revealed that, while 바카라사이트re had been preliminary discussions between South Bank and Lambeth, 바카라사이트re was never any agreement to put 바카라사이트 course forward for validation.

Mr Skene said: "I feel cheated. I gave up my job and spent three years studying to improve myself and it has come to nothing. I have to admit I'm pretty bitter about it all."
