Get our student loan back!

Rejected 10 signatures

What the petition asks

With COVID ruining the time we spend actually at uni campuses, we have basically wasted money on our year at uni in the hope of being at uni and most of it being online.
If enough students vote, we could potentially try and get our student loan back or part of our loan back for this year meaning that in the end of it all, student loan debt Wont be as bad for students.
