but don't forget your sister won't be paying huge amounts back, if, as you say the career she has chosen pays a lesser amount over £21K she will get an extra 10% tax from her paypacket
the graduate on 80K per year will be paying back significanlty more than her
if she is passionate about the job and getting her degree then the debt, albeit a nasty one and a huge burden over her for a good few years will be worth it in the end
The debt will still be there for however long, growing at a greater rate that Students have to pay now. Not something nice to have in the background and will effect choices of where to work, live, buying a house, starting a family etc. The Gov't talk about it being writtern off after so many years but none of this has been anounced yet so is not clear and i'm sure they won't want to write off lots of loans as this is supposed to be a money saving exercise.
