The spectre of Top Up Fees looms large in the minds of many parents and students. Therefore we suspect it is just a matter of time before a local entrepreneur decides to copy the Free Ride Sweepstakes.

Winners get four years of college tuition paid along with room and board, clothes, accessories and even a four-year car lease. While US college fees are considerably higher than in the UK, the debts of UK tertiary students are growing and we think a similar local lottery would be very popular with students and parents.
