Review student tuition fees and accommodation costs.

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Tuition fees and accommodation costs should be reviewed because of the lockdown. Many of us are being told we are not allowed to go back to our accommodation unless we are on a specific course. Being expected to pay full tuition and accommodation costs is unfair when we aren’t allowed back.
The online lectures and seminars are having negative effects on students. We are being expected to pay full price for our accommodation when we are being told not to go back. It makes no sense and is extremely frustrating and confusing for students.
