Students should pay the full cost for their own study, because university benefits individuals rather than society. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Whether learners ought to pay the whole fee for their studying, as people take advantage of university education

instead

of society, is a controversial problem.

This

writer disagrees with the view

due to

unaffordable cost and reduction in the number of potential

students

. It needs to be understood that university fees have become higher and higher in recent years. Some

schools

have educational costs that the poor cannot afford to pay. Because of that, many

students

must give up learning and find a job to support their families

instead

.

Additionally

,

this

situation means that the rich can dominate

universities

, which might lead to discrimination of poorer classes. Take Korea as an example, where bullying seems to often occur at the

universities

for the wealth.

However

, many supporters argue that

universities

also

need money to pay for teachers and equipment, so that

students

paying the whole cost is a good idea. Though

this

idea has its own logic,

schools

and

universities

are usually invested in and funded by businesses and companies,

in other words

, they can focus on teaching without thinking about income.

That is

the reason why it is unnecessary for

students

to pay

such

a high price. It is

also

acknowledged that high fees may lead to a decrease in potential

students

. Because of the costly price, many people decide to choose another university

that is

suitable to their financial background.

This

makes

schools

lack

students

and might end up closing.

Therefore

, the reputation and quality of

schools

can be damaged by the high fees. In brief, it is unnecessary for

students

to pay the whole cost.

Hence

,

schools

should offer scholarships to support

students

who are in financial difficulties,
