In the UK, initiatives like the open university can offer you that, proper math degrees at a reasonable price.
The problem is that in the marketplace, a degree is still more about prestige than actual knowledge.
- MagnumOpus 7y agoOpen University used to be cheap before the uni fee hike in 2012. Now each course costs £1500, putting the cost of a degree at more than £18000. Cheap only compared to the US, but not if the alternative is an Oxford/Cambridge branded degree for £27,500.
- ramblerman 7y agoI was unaware of the hike, that's a shame tbh, as it lessens their value. Thanks for the correction.
