Student Loans: 93% Of Graduates Have Seen Debt Increase Despite Repayments

“Some people were saying maybe we should rename it as a graduate contribution system. I don't think that that would make much difference to the graduates materially.” The Sunday Times’s ‘End The Graduate Rip-Off’ campaign has called for a major overhaul of the student loan system, with a government inquiry due to publish its report on the “systemic issue” of graduation debt on Tuesday, says The Times and Sunday Times’s money reporter Mary Downer. Mary Downer was speaking to Rosie Wright and Calum Macdonald on Times Radio Breakfast. Listen live every Friday to Sunday, from 6-10am.
