Waive the tuition fee for universities,and colleges

Rejected 17 signatures

What the petition asks

I demand from the parliament to waive the tuition fees of university and colleges, because many British students go abroad for free education in countries such as Norway and Czech Republic

I want the government or parliament to take an action and waive the tuition fees of universities and colleges because Investing in our British Students can benefit the country because a lot of people are willing to study and get multiple degrees but unfortunately they cannot as the tuition fee is expensive.
I demand a review and action to be taken about this case

Why it was rejected

It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.

Petitions need to request a clear action for which the UK Government or House of Commons is responsible for.

The UK Government sets the maximum tuition fees that universities can charge, but deciding whether to waive these is a matter for individual universities, not the UK Government or House of Commons.

If you want the Government to abolish tuition fees and pay for all university education out of public funds, we could accept a petition requesting this, but it would need to be clear that this is what you want to happen.

Tuition fees are not normally charged for college education for 16-18 year olds, unless this is provided privately.
