국내 대학생 10명 가운데 3명은 등록금이 없다는 이유로 휴학을 계획한다는 사실이 알려졌다.
취업포털 사람인이 대학생 271명을 대상으로 설문조사를 한 결과, 조사대상자 중 27.3% (74명)이 ‘학비 마련을 위해 2학기 휴학을 고려하고 있다’고 답한 것으로 26일 전해졌다.
휴학 중 등록금 마련을 위해서는 아르바이트를 하겠다는 학생이 66.2%로 가장 많았고, 단기 기업 취업을 하겠다는 답변이 뒤를 이었다.
조사결과, 이상적인 휴학기간은 1년, 그 다음은 6개월인 것으로 나타났다.
학비 마련을 위해 휴학 중인 학생들은 늦어지는 졸업과 높아지는 자신의 취업 연령에 부담감과 조급함을 느끼는 것으로 알려졌다.

Three in 10 college students in South Korea are planning to take a semester or year off in order to secure tuition fees, a survey showed on Monday.
Job search site Saramin conducted a survey on 271 university students and discovered that 27.3 percent, or 74 students, were considering a leave of absence to raise college funds.
When those surveyed were asked about their plans during the voluntary break, 66.2 percent answered they would get a part-time job. Another choice favored by students was to get a short-term job at a company.
Most students said they would take one year off from school, while a six-month leave of absence was also preferred.
Suspending their study, however, comes at a cost.
The survey showed that students, while taking one or two semesters off, tend to come under pressure such as delayed graduation and restrictions in applying for a job due to an age limit. Most Korean companies set an age limit for job applicants.
