The Gross Enrollment Rate of Higher Education Level (Tertiery Education) can show the quality of government services to the right of the community to access to higher education. The Gross Enrollment Rate of Higher Education Level also shows that people can easily access to tertiery education. This study aims to determine the factors that influence change in Gross Enrollment Rate of Higher Education Level. The analysis was conducted by looking at four aspects that replaced the change of the Gross Enrollment Rate of Higher Education, namely aspects of government, school, household, and regional characteristics. The data used are provincial level panel data, which is estimated using econometry through the analysis of the Fixed Estimation Method (FEM). The result shows that not all used variables in this study significantly affecting in change of the Gross Enrollment Rates of Higher Education. Significant variables on changes in Enrollment Rate of Higher Education include: (1) central government allocations in the field of higher education to GDRB (representing aspects of government); (2) Lecturer-Student Ratio (representing aspects of Higher Education); and (3) population (representing aspects of regional characteristics). Meanwhile, the number of Universities (representing aspects of Higher Education) and GRDP per capita (representing aspects of the Household) are not significantly to affect the Gross Enrollment Rates of Higher Education. This study may be used as input for the Government to formulate the policies as an effort to improve access to higher education through increasing of  the Enrollment Rates  of Higher Education. Keywords : gross enrollment rates, universities, provinces, data panels Abstrak      APK Perguruan Tinggi dapat menunjukkan kualitas layanan pemerintah terhadap hak masyarakat dalam memperoleh akses pendidikan tinggi.

This paper deals with the current reform of higher education which is now being discussed in the Czech Republic. The Government and the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports propose a tuition fee for students at universities but there is still no clear concept of it. University leaders and students are against the tuition fee because of their fear of getting into debt during their study. The aim of this paper is to show an alternative way of funding higher education without tuition fee loans and from the point of view of tax justice. According to the concept of horizontal justice (Mankiw, 1999) taxpayers should pay taxes at the same rate, but it does not work this way. The result of research is that changes in Act 586/1992 Coll., on income tax and in Act 117/1995 Coll., on state social welfare are required. Abolition of tax relief is proposed where discrimination against other taxpayers and groups of students could occur. By abolition of tax relief for a student and tax relief for a dependent child the amounts of 4,020 CZK and 13,404 CZK respectively could be saved. Changes in legislation could be politically more acceptable than the tuition fee. The solution could also lead to simplification for taxpayers. The target should be equal access to higher education for all students.

ABSTRACT This article analyses the widening access policies implemented by Brazil during the 1990s and in 2016. It cites and evaluates the different strategies used by the government, such as student loans, needs-based and race-based quotas. In the context of a highly privatized sector, in which for-profit higher education institutions account for over half of the existing higher education institutions in Brazil, the results display a relative growth in higher education access based on minorities and needs-based communities. However, it also showcases some trends not achieved as originally planned by the government (specially increasing higher education participation in regions other than the south and the southeast) and serves as a point requiring further research to evaluate the influence on the lives of students and graduates. This study uses government and publicly available sources to analyse the impact of this strategy over time.

Privatisation of higher education is a global trend. There is an increasing demand for higher education due to the nature of work and economy today, and public universities and colleges cannot meet the demand with their limited financial resources from the government. Private higher education institutions (PHEI) seem to be the most attractive alternative to public universities and colleges in opening greater access to higher education. Malaysia is no exception, having about 25 private universities, 22 private university colleges and 410 private colleges and institutes. About a fourth of these PHEIs are Islamic institutions going by the name of the institutions or their ownership. However, private higher education institutions have their own issues and challenges. The most serious of them are preserving the philosophical goal of a balanced and integrated education despite market demands and sustaining its operation financially amidst a competitive environment. Yet, there are several opportunities for Islamic PHEIs especially in terms of international collaboration and exchanges. This article is an attempt to examine these issues and challenges or opportunities.

Women in early centuries were restricted to their home, a very few women had the access to higher education. They were forced to be at the mercy of their father and husband. But in the present scenario, women working everywhere can be seen in India or outside. As the education, awareness and opportunities for the women provided by the government are increasing day by day, and they have been honoredso the women started working outside. Dual career couples are attracting fresh attention in recent years mainly due to the growing involvement of women in the workforce.


Education is a powerful instrument of social change, and often initiates upwards movement in the social structure. The fundamental aim of the education is to bring about change in the person as well as in the society. His excellency, the former president of India late Shri A.P.J Abdul Kalam has rightly said that “Education is the most important element in the growth and prosperity of the nation”. It is the passport to accelerate economic growth. It is the key in building human resource capital and human resource capital is a vital ingredient in building a nation. Universalization of elementary education has been a cherished national goal since 1950. There were various education commission and policies giving direction and guide lines as to how this national goal could be achieved. Many programmes have been taken up by the government to achieve UEE goal, to accomplish this goal article 21A of Indian constitution (eighty-sixth amendment) act, 2002 (w.e.f. 01 -04-2010) directs the state to provide free and compulsory education to all children till they complete the 14 years of age. In order to fulfil this constitutional obligation, the access to educational facilities has been improved to a large extent by establishing a number of schools and the required facilities and the enrolments there in have been increased tremendously. Development in education is an important indicator of overall development of a society. Lacks of proper educational facilities have been one of the major causes of backwardness of Indian masses. In the process of educational development, the basic foundation is to enhance the existing programmes. With a good elementary education, there will be smooth passage to secondary education. Hence, the most urgent need of the hour is to realize the importance of elementary education to accomplish the objective of developing country and enabling them to compete successfully in the race of civilization. We have to accede fully that elementary education is our weakest link. All the efforts to improve secondary and higher education will end fiasco without effective improvement in elementary education. In a sense, we can hold that without its improvement, the progress of the nation as a whole is quite unthinkable. Elementary education holds the key in the educational system of any country. In fact, it forms the linkage to secondary and higher education

In spite of the initiatives which have been taken by the government of Tanzania towards access to higher education for qualified students who came from low - income backgrounds, the studies and real situation reveal the reality of how this group of people has been denied to parity and fair for accessing higher education. Thus, Tanzania government has established Higher Education Students Loans Board with the Act No.9 of 2004 aiming at giving assistance to the students who got admission in universities, but came from low-income families with no financial strength to support their schooling. However, since its inception higher education loans board had failed to identify students from low-income background resulting in some students dropping out or postpone their studies as they look for other sources of funds. This article is qualitative in nature with the use of document analysis technique. The author uses relevant literature, officially published statistical data and various theoretical justifications for examining the impact of HE loan towards students from low-income background. The results of this study identified some challenges leading to a misallocation of fund to the needy students, application of Means Testing being one of them. Meanwhile, the author concludes with careful planning and effective use of means testing with a sustainable operational mechanism which will address the issue of parity and justice for the needy students in accessing higher education in Tanzania.

Widening access to Higher Education has been a priority globally in recent years. This has helped shape projects that work with educational establishments in more deprived communities to remove barriers to continued education. One such barrier is often the difficulty that students face in transitioning between educational environments. In Scotland, the Government have made widening access a key initiative and have supported projects that work towards this aim. The Dundee Academy of Sport (DAoS) project was established as a venture between Abertay University and Dundee and Angus College. The project works with schools from an SIMD20 (deprived) background and attempts to remove barriers to Further Education (FE) and Higher Education (HE). The project works throughout the educational continuum and supports students at each stage of transition. This study focused specifically on the work within secondary schools, FE, HE, as well as the role of DAoS in supporting transition across sectors. Six practitioners from three partner schools, two partner colleges and one lecturer at the university were interviewed to give their evaluation on how DAoS worked with their institution. At secondary level, work with senior pupils was highlighted as being useful in preparing students for FE and HE. Changes in attitude and mind-set for the pupils were noted among those who previously may not have considered continued education. Financial support and skills of DAoS staff were identified as being beneficial to schools. This suggests that a contextualised approach in schools can be useful for engaging pupils. This also suggests that by offering access to FE and HE establishments can make pupils consider these as viable options moving forward. Areas for improvement identified included further embedding of the project into FE and HE courses, further integration of staff, as well as the project being focussed more towards the senior phases of secondary schools.

It is now well recognised and understood that the higher education is one of the important components in accomplishing the Sustainable Development Goals of United Nations for the countries. However this important sector continues to remain a matter of concern in India primarily because of supply demand gaps, poor quality of teaching-learning, disparities in access and constraints on research & innovation. The conventional mainstream systems of education are able to serve a very small segment of the society. Alongside, new demands of education are fast emerging from the working class and who are away from the centre of activities. The scarce financial allocations from the Government are not able to meet the demand of education. Such a scenario threatens the sustained high growth of the Indian economic engine. The advent of private sector and the opening of private universities and other institutions for higher and professional education has now emerged as important factors that are, now, running sizeable number of professional degree programmes particularly management and engineering and accounts for 59% of all the tertiary enrolments in India. Despite a lot of scepticism about the role of private sector, there has been a policy thrust for private sector's participation in higher education. This paper discusses the needs of private universities and their roles in making access of higher education in masses. The authors have tried to explore the roles of vast network of private universities in expansion of open and distance learning in accordance with the issues and challenges.
