Many high schoolers left out of system

OTTAWA(CUP)--Hundreds of high school graduates scrambling to get into university may be out of luck as many institutions across the country impose stiff enrolment res- trictions for the first time.

Along with community college tansfer students, high schoolers asre competing fiercely for the few spots available

in already overcrowded universities. They are trying to return '

to school after suffering another summer unemployment rate of 20 per cent.

The competition is especially intense in Ontario. At the University of Toronto, more than 25,000 students have applied for only 6,300 spaces. At York University, which is iccepting 200 fewer first year students in September, nearly [9,000 asre vying for 4,700 spots.

Administrators at both universities say strained resources have forced them to close their doors.

Sheldon Levy, York associate vice-president, said in- adequate government financing, cramped quarters and a desire to preserve the existing quality of education prompted the administration’s move to restrict enrolment.

At the University of Alberta, nearly 2,000 students have been rejected. They failed to meet the university’s new academic standards, which jumped from an average of 60 to 65 per cent this year.

The U of A student union recently took the university to court in a bid to remove the new standards. But an Alberta court judge ruled in favour of the administration, saying

enough notice had been given to grade 12 students who would need summer school to boose their grades for admission. - ‘

At the University of B.C., which has pegged. first year enrolment at 3250 students, has rejected 500 students who failed to make the grade standard of a C-plus average.

In St. John’s, Newfoundland, Memorial University is thinking of limiting access in first year to 3000 students. But Ward Neale, Memorial’s vice-president academic, said no official decisions have been made.

Although total numbers of rejections were not available before the end of registration, thousands are also being turned away from colleges and technical institutes.

Student debts “collected,

OTTAWA(CUP)—-The Secretary of State expects about 20,000 students to default on their student loans this year as more and more graduates find themselves without work. i “The number of students who default on their loans is rising,” says Theodore

i.l.,.

Kubacki, manager of the Canada Student Loan Program.

Last year about 16,000

students defaulted on their loans and in 1982, about 12,000 failed to muster up’the money.

Kubacki says students who were unable to find jobs several}; 'V f' _urned lto Schbol ' to“: "imp dye their chances. He says they ended up with greater debt-loads than ever. ‘

“Now they’ve graduated and there’s still no jobs”.

The manager estimates that

'$40 million must still be collected on from students who had loans extending as far back as 10 years ago.

The Liberal‘government has hired three collection agencies--FCA International

Limited or Montreal, Associated Credit Bureaux of Canada of Toronto and Canadian

Bonded Credits of Agin— court, Ontarionto ‘collect the$40million debt. V I y

The agencies are governed \ by a stringent set of regulations, says Kubacki. “Students are not to be hounded or chased down. The agencies are not to badger parents or convince students to take out another loan.” .

A collector will be removed from an account if program officialsfliscover that he or she has been using “in- appropriate behavior” in collecting a debt .‘

Students who encounter difficulty repaying their student loans should contact their loan officer, says Kubacki. Those who can . prove they are unemployed may be eligible for an 18- month extension “period in which no interest is collected. All students with loans are given. a six month interest- free period before, debt isdue. ~ "'
