The financing system for higher education employed in the United States and Englandin the previous years has a strong poweras it has increased the quantityof student's registrations while supporting the research budgets of universities.

The model offers ways for the better use of scarce financial resources, promotes faster and more qualified growth of the universities, and, eventually, formsa basis for sustainable economic growth the country.
