This year the total amount of student loans outstanding was £89 billion. This is projected to increase to £500 billion in the mid-2030s and £1 trillion in the late 2040s."

The Committee wants to hear your experiences and view of tuition fees, and your opinions as to whether higher education provides value for money or prepares you for employment. You'll get a tour of Parliament, meet members of the Committee and get the chance to speak about careers in Parliament. Travel expenses will be reimbursed.
