Most big towns in Britain have both a university and a college of higher education. There are 91 universities in Britain and 47 colleges of higher education. Universities offer three- and four-year degree courses; colleges of higher education offer both two-year HND (Higher National Diploma) courses and degree courses. A degree is the qualification you get from university when you pass your final exams. You then get a BA (Bachelor of Arts), BSc (Bachelor of Science) or BEd (Bachelor of Education). Undergraduates (students who are studying for degrees) go to large formal lectures, but most of the work takes place in tutorials: lessons in groups of ten or more where the students discuss their work with the lecturer. 2. Only 25 per cent of the student population goes on to higher education. Competition to get into one of Britain’s universities is hard and not everyone can go. Students usually need three A-levels (school leaving exams). The students come to a personal interview and the universities then decide which students they want. The more popular the university, the higher the grades it will ask for. 3. British students have to pay to go to university, and they need money to live away from home while they are studying. Some students whose parents do not earn a lot of money are given a grant (money) from the local education authority. If students do not get a grant, parents have to pay for their children. Some students borrow money from the bank which must be paid back after they leave university. In theory, the grant pays for rent, food, books, transport and socialising. In fact, the grant is not a lot of money. Students have to work during the holidays to earn more money, but it is now difficult to find such jobs. 4. Not all students study full-time at university or college. Many people combine their studies with work. Some companies give their staff time for training one or two days a week or for two months a year. Large companies often have their own training schemes. If you are unemployed, there are two forms of training schemes: employment training for people who have been out of work for a long time and Youth Training Schemes for school leavers who cannot find a job.
