London Economics were commissioned by the LSE and University of Sheffield Students’ Unions to undertake a piece of analysis on higher education fees and funding. Underpinned by the significant financial constraints facing higher education institutions as a result of the pandemic, we were tasked with analysing a range of alternative approaches to provide domestic students with a form of financial rebate equating to 30% of the tuition fee that would be both fiscally neutral for higher education institutions and HM Treasury. The full analysis with all the different scenarios modelled is available here.
