Rising debt and language fears bring big fall in overseas study
15th September
The Herald reports that rising levels of student debt and a failure
to encourage pupils to study languages have been blamed for a dramatic fall in the number of Scots attending university abroad.
Figures obtained by The Herald show that participation in the Erasmus
programme – which allows students to earn part of their degree in
Europe – has fallen by nearly 25% in the past seven years.
