„Tuition fees in England (UK) are higher than in all OECD countries except the United States. Tertiary institutions charged tuition fees of USD 11 797 a year for a bachelor’s degree in 2015, about 4 times more than in 2005 due to changes to higher education funding. However, high levels of tuition fees are offset by a well-developed system of financial support for students. For instance, the great majority of bachelor’s degree students in England – 92 % of UK-domiciled full-time students – benefit from public loans or grants.“
