Higher tuition fees a must for quality education

Professor Jacob Opadeyi

New University of Guyana (UG) Vice-Chancellor Professor Jacob Opadeyi today stated that if the university is to be rebranded a high quality tertiary institution, its administrators must, among other things, find ways to increase the “ridiculously low” tuition fees currently paid by students.

The standard tuition fee for most programmes at UG is an average $127,000 per year
