[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Race based affirmative action is considered unlawful in Europe, but there are SES preferences.[/quote]

This is more equitable.[/quote]the ones I know about do not ask for parents income[/quote]

Exactly. European universities are so affordable that, as a general rule, parents' income is not a factor. Now what about Asia Pac? It seems this thread has not focused enough on universities in Singapore, Korea, China, Australia, which are going to become more and more important.[/quote]

UK universities can charge up to £9,000. At $1.60 to the pound, that's hardly affordable for low income families.[/quote]

Is the UK the only country in Europe?

And, even your example is misleading. Until last year the maximum tuition was like 3,000 pounds, now increased due to budget problems. A joke by American standards.[/quote]

Okay, I'll try the "I want to pay tuition at last year's rate" line and let you know how that works. [/quote]

If that doesn't work, try the "England is not the only country in Europe."

And I say England because universities in Scotland and Wales are still essentially free.

Funny. My Scottish cousins were just over here, and they werre complaining about the cost of university in Scotland. My Scottish cousins are middle class and most have PhDs. Sure, it's low in Scotland, but it's not "essentially free".

Ignoramus.[/quote]

For Scottish students, current undergrad tuition in The University of Edinburgh is less than £2,000.

And..."The Home-Scotland/EU rate of fee has not yet been confirmed (for 2014-2015) by the Scottish Government but the indicative fee is £1,820."

Who is the ignoramus here? Do you have fun with your whiner cousins?

So what you're saying is, all those kids in London should go back in time and get born in Scotland? Or maybe they should establish residency in Scotland?  Maybe we should all establish residency in Scotland? Scotland is lovely (except in December), but it's pretty hard to just up and move there.

You make no sense.[/quote]
