00:00Hi, I'm Theo with Manchester World today. I'm on the streets of Manchester asking people about tuition fees and the reason for that is during
00:04Freshers' Week a number of universities came forward and requested that tuition fees be raised so that they can remain afloat.
00:09So we want to know if students or people who've graduated from university here would be willing to pay more, whether they think it's fair
00:15that it's asked and what they would be willing to pay for university.
00:18I think students are paying too much.
00:20Depending on, obviously if they're struggling, like yeah,
00:23if it, obviously if it keeps it open, if it gives us more things to do in uni, like trips and everything,
00:28then I'll definitely pay more. But if it's just for them to stay open maybe, then I'd probably be a bit off to not pay for it.
00:36You're exploiting international students that are paying way over the odds and then now that you can't exploit them,
00:41you want to exploit us. Stop the exploitation, man.
00:43Education is a universal right. You should make it free again.
00:47I think there is too much choice.
00:50Especially like in Manchester, there's three just in Manchester.
00:53I think they should limit it to maybe one per city. If it helps to reduce the fees, then yeah, I think that'll be a good idea.
