What the petition asks
All international students should be reimbursed of this years tuition fees as universities are now online only due to COVID-19, with only powerpoints online for learning materials which is not worthy of up to £12k to £15k.
All University practical labs are not available for the study and research. It is very vulnerable for the Engineering and other students who haven't get access of the lab and libraries.
Lastly, the extended strikes of this year have severely disrupted student-staff interaction and personalised help, with staff not replying to emails or available for meetings. Grading is also being delayed. Overall, university quality is poor this year and certainly not worth up to £15k.
