People from cities go to university more often than those who live in the country. Some people think that the government should make it easier to enter universities for people who live outside of cities and towns by setting lower entry requirements and tuition fees.

The opportunity to go to a university is availed more by people who live in cities than those who live in the countryside. It is believed that government should take action to lower the standard of entry
requirements
and reduce
tuition
fees, making
admission
easier for people who reside outside of cities and towns. I agree that the cost of
tuition
should be reduced but I disagree that the
admission
requirement should become easier.
To begin
with,
admission
requirements
should not be modified because
this
would be unfair to the
students
who live in the city and will challenge the
students
who belong to the rural
areas
to work harder.
For example
, a medical entry test is conducted every year in Pakistan so that
students
get a chance to study at the best medical colleges.
This
exam is taken by
students
from urban
as well as
rural
areas
. The syllabus of the exam is kept the same providing
students
of different
areas
with an equal opportunity to gain
admission
.
As a result
, by not changing the
admission
requirements
,
students
won’t feel any discrimination.
Furthermore
, the
tuition
should be reduced for non-affording
students
living in rural
areas
. Their financial situation should not hinder them from going to college if they are eligible to study in the university they have applied to. For these
students
, scholarships and grants should be provided by the government.
For example
, in American universities, scholarships are granted to
students
who have been high achievers in their school with high GPAs and awards shown as proof of their academic performance.
Thus
, giving them a chance to
further
their education.
To conclude
, I believe that keeping the entry
requirements
the same and lowering the
tuition
fees with the help of scholarships will make their
admission
easier. The
students
will be motivated to get
admission
and their financial circumstances won’t hold them back from gaining
admission
.
