Topic: Why the fuck do people in Scotland get free university placements?

Anonymous A started this discussion 15 years ago #8,492

No-one in Scotland pays tuition fees, yet in England we pay the same amount of taxes, but are lumbered with insane amounts of debt after leaving university. Why is the system like this when it is so blatantly unfair? I hate Scotland.

I would rather not have upwards of £30K (~$50K) worth of debt given the choice.

Who the fuck cares about the logistics, dickhead? Debt it debt. Personally, I would rather not have debt given the choice.

But my brother's English and according to him, uni is free. Which I don't understand, given that he's got student loans and all...

Would tuition be similar for someone on a student visa from America?
Would I get the scotland-rate if I decided to go to university in Scotland?
Would I have to become a citizen first to get the rate?

@148,762 (Triptych !!DP4/G/5A6)

He is mistaken.

@previous (stickybuns !bENfolDsOU)

I believe it's free in Scotland if you're an EU citizen, definitely not free for Americans. It's hard to get citizenship, you would need to acquire a student visa and dig deep like the rest of us.

I shall get my visa, get there, marry someone, and all will be well.

Or, I'll just apply like a normal person and hope for the best.

Oh, is that because Glasgow has more murders than any city in the UK? Or because there is three times more serious assaults, robbery and violent crimes than the UK average? Or is it because Glasgow has the highest unemployment than any city in the UK? Just curious.

@148,779 (Voice of !WisdomHsuU)

Ethnicity doesn't come into it you dumb fuck. University isn't free in your country of residence either, so it "sucks" equally as much as England on that one.

Marrying someone doesn't guarantee citizenship, you will have to do all sorts of things to prove that it isn't a sham marriage. You will need all the luck you can get.

My aunt/uncle did that, except from England to here. It went well (I think). I will make sure it isn't a sham marriage.
And I may just apply for citizenship like a normal person, anyway.

We've had this conversation many times before. Muslims are a minority.

Besides, it's the capital. There's a lot of everything in it.
