More students are living at home
A Universities UK report says the proportion of full-time undergraduates living in halls has fallen from 35% to 27% in the same period. The numbers of students that are living at home are increased from 12% to 20% over the past 10 years. Since 1998 students have had to pay tuition fees, which have now risen to £3,000 a year. The study shows a slight rise in the number of students from poorer areas going to university - up 1% on 1998/99. The study - Patterns of Higher Education Institutions in the UK - examines trends in universities over the past 10 years. The study shows a reduction in the number of students leaving university and finding themselves unemployed, but it stresses that this must be seen in the context of the overall improvement in employment within the UK.
Reaction
It so expensive to go to a college or university lately, that is one of the biggest reasons that students stay at home. It is unaffordable for people that live in the poorest areas. Only rich people get the chance to have good education and that is unfair. Good education should be possible for anyone of us.

It is cheap, especially during this crisis. No one wants to leave their parental house because everything is being paid by their parents. Especially, if you are a student, it is formidable to live in your parents' house
