Abstract

In India, higher education, and particularly university or higher education, is perceived as an important source for modernization, growth and development which has led to an increase in demand to access for education, backed up by a number of challenges and problems. This article focusses on summarizing the goals and aims of students in higher education, their basis for choosing the study programs or plan of actions, evaluating and figuring out the quality of higher education, the challenges being faced by the students and suggestions for improvement and upgradation, so that in short it can be said that student participation is determined by many variables.

The document is based on the case of a public and private high school college in Uttar Pradesh. Data collection was carried out through focus group discussions with students from different faculties and conducting in-depth interviews with students about the university and their marital status.

The results showed that the quality of higher education is the main problem in preventing higher education. they remain unemployed due to the low quality of higher education and unemployment is the main problem of Uttar Pradesh, which is why these students are not accepted or interested in higher education.
