description |
This is the case in Jordan and this
quick note is based on a study to better inform
decision-makers on policy options regarding the development
and expansion of student aid programs in Jordan. The goal
was to give voice to primary stakeholders and allow them to
participate in the process, express their views and concerns
and thus become active partners in the programs rather than
passive recipients to pre-determined activities. The
specific objectives of the study were to assess: 1) how
university undergraduate students finance their higher
education and the extent to which they and their families
take out existing (student or consumer) bank loans; 2) how
secondary students in their final year of study plan to
finance their higher education; 3) the demand for student
loans among university and higher education students and the
potential demand among secondary students; 4) the degree to
which financial barriers keep eligible students from
continuing on to higher education or on to their institution
of choice; and 5) the degree to which access to loans or
other types of educational finance would influence
students' decision to go on to higher education or to
study in a higher cost discipline. |
