Mrs. Kellett-Bowman

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what is the cost per student graduating from universities in (a) Great Britain and (b) each of the countries of the European Economic Community.

Dr. Boyson

The estimated average net institutional recurrent cost per student on a three-year degree course at a university in Great Britain, in terms of the costs prevailing in the financial year 1979–80, was £12,500 at November 1980 prices. Comparable data are not available for other European Community countries.
