Definitely the increase of tuition is going to be a slap in the face for future student. A solution would be move to Wales to study as fees won't increase or study in other European countries. I heard many English students choose to study in the Netherlands as fees are lower. As many young Somalis in UK moved from Netherlands I can't see why they woulnt follow a similar path.

The reality is many Somali Youth are not dedicated and descipline enough to put up with the endless number of hours one must spend on reading books and studying to get decent grades to succeed. They have no role models and no motivation to change the situation around them.

Couldn't read anymore books and the scholarship of £1000/month was not attractive so dropped PHD. No intention of going back anytime soon.
P.s i know of no wealthy Phd holders, as excess education only makes you another man's employee for the rest of your life.

lol@ people people claiming they have their PhD
Associates..maybe...bachelors....maybe......Masters......big maybe but PhD?
There is roughly 250 Somali students at my university, approximately 192 of them are girls. By far majority of them are majoring in Pyschology, nursing or dertemology. There are few students who are majoring in Archeology and political science but that is all the fields that Somalis students are trying to get into.
