HIGHER EDUCATION AND SOCIAL JUSTICE : Student Social Needs Survey

Research shows that there is a conflict between student employment and educational practices. Higher education does not increase the chances of professional employment. Housing is one of the main preconditions for the social exclusion of students and creates problems for access to education. The housing problem is especially serious for those who migrate from the regions to the capital, which puts an extra financial burden on students’ families. Tuition, along with housing costs, is a major part of students' monthly expenses. The main sources of finances for covering tuition fees were the family and income from paid work.
