Yeah on second thought I guess I shouldn't really be so surprised here. Anyone who can take this route is in a highly privileged situation and presumably has a strong financial safety net via their parents.
But I think it's incorrect to say "most people interested in this..." when it's really "most people who can do this..." Few children of even middle income parents could do this.
