Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

  • Option : C
  • Explanation : More opportunities of employment for less educated, Government policies, and competition from foreign universities make access to Higher education easier. Language of instruction in Higher Education is mostly English which is a deterrent for a large number of students from vernacular mediums. Economic status is a barrier because higher education is expensive and unaffordable for those having humble means. Gender discrimination in society results in less women enrolling for Higher Education. More opportunities of employment for less educated, Government policies, and competition from foreign universities facilitate access to Higher education.
