Nobody doubts these days that progress in the world depends on progress in education, higher education in particular. English universities usually consist of colleges. The academic year is divided into three terms.The structure of courses does not differ from Russian courses in size of groups. Methods of assessment differ from university to university. Conditions of student life in Britain differ from those in Russia.The English assume that anyone from age eighteen is an indepen­dent being capable of making up his or her own mind and capable of looking after himself or herself. English students receive a grant from the state for the expenses of daily living. The level of the grant depends on the income of the'student and of the student's parents. Students can take out a special student loan which they do not have to repay until they are earning. Loans are not means-tested4. In the opinion of the English there is one more obvious difference be­tween British and Russian students, however.There is a widespread opinion that conditions may be different but goals of getting higher education are the same everywhere. Many peo­ple admit that for the majority of young people today success in life is measured in terms of the money young people earn.  They want to obtain prestigious diplomas to get higher wages and advancement.
