| Some special features of British university life:
Over 90% of full-time students receive grants from public or private funds. The grants are paid towards tuition and living costs. Higher education is free for those people whose parents' income is below a certain level. Degree courses, leading to a B.A. or B.Sc., usually take three years. It is almost impossible to move from one university to another during a degree course, but if you do that, you will have to begin the course again.
University students attend lectures. They also attend tutorials. These are discussion classes for a small group of students. In these classes, a tutor sets work for his students. Then, the teacher and the students get together every week or fortnight to discuss and criticise the work done by each student.
