Reduce University fees due to online classes and reduced hours on campus.

Rejected 19 signatures

What the petition asks

I want them to reduce the amount students are paying for university to courses. Due to coronavirus students have been given timetables for the academic year 20/21 and they are in as little as 6 hours every other week and the rest is online zoom classes.
I understand the recent situation means online class is the safest way however we should not be paying £9,250 a year for this. The amount should be reduced immensely as this is unfair on us getting in debt for something we did not sign up for.

Why it was rejected
