Cancel tuition fees for University Students for the 2020/2021 academic year
Rejected
21 signatures
What the petition asks
Cancel all tuition fees for university students for the 2020/2021 academic year and reimburse students their maintenance loans to cover the cost of rent
Tonight, Boris Johnson has once again left University students in the dark about their future. Not even once mentioning university students in his nationwide address. England is to enter a lockdown with immediate effect and Universities are closed from tomorrow, all learning is now remote until mid-February. Deadlines are due in just a few weeks, final year students are expected to finish this spring and rent on empty student properties is still expected to be paid. We deserve to be heard
