Uni students want info on how tuition fees spent

THREE-QUARTERS of students want their ­universities to give out more information on how their tuition fees are spent, a new poll showed ­yesterday.

A study of over 15,000 undergraduates conducted by the Higher Education Policy Institute (Hepi) and the Higher Education Academy (HEA) found that only 18 per cent were happy in their knowledge of how fees are spent.

The question was put for the first time as part of the annual Student Academic Experience Survey.
