OfS sets out risks to the financial sustainability of universities and colleges - media coverage

There is substantial coverage of our annual report on financial sustainability in higher education, which was published today.

Today’s report finds that while university finances generally remain in good shape, significant variation remains in the performance of higher education providers and there are growing risks from an over-reliance on international students and inflationary pressures.

The report received coverage in the following publications:

WonkHE
Times Higher
The Telegraph
The Times
The Guardian
The National
PA (shared in The Independent, Irish News and Daily Mail)
Research Professional

The report was also mentioned on Radio 4 (starting at 08:36:20), where Professor Frankopan (author of Silk Roads) was asked about it as part of a wider discussion on China.
