Ya i saw that but from experiance i have known to take Wiki with a pinch of salt, but if its accurate then ok
So right now you pay it all up front, but as of the 2006-2007 academic year you pay after graduation. and have zero rate of interest unlike studant loans. :Edit: who negrepped me! have pity on a student who is trying to finish his final essay and has not slept much! |

The idea is no real increase as the value of the money is maintained. Not that I believe that inflation really effects the cost of goods in exact proportions though. That is a debateable idea though.

You would have no choice but to pay the inflated top up fee's now if you joined Uni in the coming years. A friend of mine decided, 2 years into his 6 year medical degree, that he didnt want to do it at the very end of last year. He changed his course and had the choice between the standard fee's that I currently pay (think its around £1250 for the year) or the new top-up fee's. but seeing as he came from the same public school as me his parents pay his tuition for him so it was an easy choice of the 1250 for the year that they pay leaving him not worrying about the 3grand a year. Basically your getting charged more and longer for what I, and other current students, currently get for less.
