One-third of people view university degree as not worth the cost

A new survey shows that one-third of people believe a university degree is not worth the money spent on it. Meanwhile, a parliamentary committee is launching an investigation into student loan sizes and interest rates, hearing concerns from graduates.

A new survey has revealed that approximately one-third of people do not consider completing university a financially sound decision. The result coincides with a moment when members of parliament are launching a thorough investigation into the student loan system.

Parliamentarians are hearing from graduates who are concerned about both the size of their education loans and high interest rates. Many former students feel that the money invested in their education has not paid off in practice.

The survey results raise broader questions about the value of higher education and the financial burden on students. Critical voices share a common view: the loan system needs reform, as current interest rates make debt repayment extremely difficult for many.

The study reflects a growing public debate about whether higher education provides sufficient return at both the individual and societal level. The parliamentary investigation should provide a clearer picture of what changes are needed in the student loan system.
