The UK has adopted the US model for university education, [ requiring students to take out huge loans ]( http://www.theguardian.com/education/2014/oct/12/have-universities-been-privatised-by-stealth ) . Nonetheless, many are desperate to go to a university because wages for non-graduates have been knocked down. Indeed, many graduates won't get good jobs because there are too many. The only aspect which is not quite as bad as the US is that graduates with low incomes won't have to pay as much.
