He said;
I use OOU as an example of how students will have access to funding to be able to pursue their careers.
Take for example if a student has access to the loan, I‘m very sure 2000 of them out of 10,000 would not be applying for leave of absence every year due to lack of funds.
Out of 10,000 students, I believe with students loan, the number of students that are dropping out of the school year as a result of lack of funding will reduce drastically.
