What the petition asks
all the universities across UK are closed and students cannot use the facilities and services completely, it is not fair to pay the full tuition for a normal situation in this crisis.it is not right to pay for the services which students cannot use.
so many people across the world an in UK are not working and they are experiencing anxiety these days, it is not ok to pay extra money for something that is not available at the moment. universities can give students partial refund of their total tuition fees and it is also better if they consider the difficulties of students and force the universities to extend the deadlines for assignments and exams and also making a safety nets, so that the academic performance do not get disadvantaged.
