| Abstract: | Higher education (here as: h-educ.) participation in Ethiopia is very low, about 1.5 per cent. The h-educ. system in Ethiopia is moving away from exclusive and dismally low enrollments towards increasing participation. The introduction of cost sharing is necessitated to supplement public finance. A significant number of students are enrolled in fee-paying programs in public and private institutions. A modified model of the Australian type Graduate Tax, as a more attractive, simple and manageable scheme is adopted in the Ethiopian h-educ. education landscape. |
