Irish students are turning to turning tricks to pay for college:

Escort agencies are encouraging students to take up work as prostitutes.

The Irish Independent has learned that many students are turning to prostitution to fund increasingly costly college lifestyles, in some cases estimated at more than €7,000 a year.

One student confirmed he was working as an escort to fund his way through college and was earning from €160 for an hour to €500 for a 12-hour overnight stay.

One agency said students could earn up to €135 an hour as an escort, with the potential of earning €2,000 a week.
