Student voters in Ontario look for tuition, mental health help
Lily Eskin has a lot to look forward to. Just wrapping up her undergrad at McMaster University, she has already been accepted into the school’s Masters of Political Science program, secured a scholarship and a job as a teaching assistant.
But Eskin is over $30,000 in debt from a bank loan she had to take out to pay for her undergraduate studies.
“I just know it’s going to take me a while to repay that, because I’m uncertain how much money I’m going to make,” she said.
One of the most pressing concerns for college and university students, as the election nears, is the cost of tuition, say Eskin and others.
