Stop student accommodation rent and reduce tuition fees for final semester.

Rejected 12 signatures

What the petition asks

Students have been advised to go home and leave accommodations but stuck in contracts requiring them to pay for a place they are not residing due to universities closing. It is a circumstance that is out of our control and we shouldn’t have to be a further £3,000+ in debt at no fault of our own.
We also shouldn’t be required to pay around £3,000 for tuition for slides online and inadequate teacher videos and resources we are not able to access.
