What does Brexit means for young people? Your questions answered

With 51.9% of the UK voting to leave the EU, the big question is: what happens next? What does Brexit mean and how will it affect young people?

Dr Darren Sharpe joined us on TSR to help answer your questions on the UK’s exit from the EU.

Dr Sharpe, a sociologist at the University of East London, is a leading expert on the social, economic and cultural issues that affect young people.

This Q&A has taken place. Anymore questions asked will NOT be answered. This is a discussion thread only now.

As I don't want to work in Europe, and my line of work is in education rather than anything directly "market related", how will Brexit affect me?

Will it affect applications to universities next year from an English student, both in England and Scotland?

Will this affect things like the minimum wage, holiday leave and ease of getting a job for English graduates?

Coming from the Eu, if i start studying my engineering course this year (2016) with a tuition fee of 9,000 pounds (paying 3,900 pounds, because the Welsh government is helping me with the fee), will my tuition fee for my fourth year (2020) be the same as the first? I don't think that they should change it mid-course, because i would have already agreed on a specific tuition fee at the start of it.

As both a worker and potential chemistry undergraduate, what impact will Brexit have on tuition fees, the cost of food, rent and transport? Will house prices and car insurance really go down?
