Hi price - looks like 2 first rounders. 😳

Rational actor?

They are not wrong … but they obviously haven’t spent time in higher ed … 😂

Cats and dogs living together and can’t agree … what’s next in 2025? 🤷‍♂️

Same … assigned to my foundations masters class.

Yeah … lots of move to full cost models in many places.

A comparison would be interesting…

There are also many individuals (too numerous to name) thank as well. Lastly, The article is open access and we are very grateful for the support from academic library consortium of Virginia providing this (vivalib.org/va/collectio...).

This was a long process to get this paper here - lots of support over the years. Grateful for the support from Research Council of 🇫🇮 (www.aka.fi/en/), Finnish Institute for Educational Research (www.jyu.fi/en/fier), Fulbright Finland Foundation (www.fulbright.fi), & @oduhied.bsky.social.

Lastly, we found it changed the behavior of fee-paying students in their first year of studying (earn more credits, ECTS) but it didn’t change their work patterns (i.e. earning more money).

Additionally, when fees were implemented, it changed the composition of fee-paying international students (more from the highest income countries and less from lower-middle income countries).

We found an inverse relationship between price and fee-paying international students (price goes up, enrollments go down) - roughly for every €1000 increase there is a loss of 1% of fee-paying international students.

Thank you for the kind words. We are really happy with the inaugural issue and look forward to publishing more high quality work in the future - we hope you will continue to read and maybe even submit something in the future!
