Students face tuition fees rising to £9,000
Universities in England will be able to charge tuition fees of up to £9,000 per year, as the government transfers much of the cost of courses from the state to students.
Fees will rise to £6,000 - with an upper tier of £9,000, if universities ensure access for poorer students.
Universities Minister David Willetts said this was a "progressive" reform.
