Has anything put you or your family off university?
A level results this Thursday will decide the future of hundreds of thousands of young people in England, Wales and Northern Ireland.
There's been a sharp fall in university applications this year as annual tuition fees rise above nine thousand pounds and interest rates on loans are set to rise this Autumn from 4.6% to 6.1%.
Across the UK two in ten pupils in the poorest areas now go to university, compared with five out of ten from wealthier neighbourhoods.
That's according to a report from the education charity, Teach First.
In some of the poorest postcodes, including parts of Derbyshire, as few as one in 20 young people will go to university. In areas like Buckinghamshire, more than four out of five will progress to higher education.

Are you a student, or are you considering going to university this Autumn?
Are you a parent of a young person concerned by the rising cost of doing a degree?
Or, you might be a teacher or a lecturer - what might be putting off the young people you work with from going on to higher education?
Tell us about your experience.
