In order to study at university students are required to pay expensive tuition fees. Not all students can afford them so some people think that university education should be free for everyone. To what extent do you agree?

would not be a financially viable option. Another point to consider is that offering all people

This
would not only be a waste of a country’s finances but also
a waste of human resources. Finally

but still offer some free places to gifted students from poor backgrounds. This
would ensure that talented, intelligent students who cannot afford to pay for higher education
would still get educated and trained. As a result
, society would benefit by getting the right people
trained and valuable financial resources would not be wasted. In conclusion, abolishing university
fees
is not feasible for most countries but offering free places to particular students who have limited financial means is a much better use of a country’s resources.Submitted by urol_berdiev94 on
