What the petition asks

Many students are currently tied into expensive agreements for education that they are not being provided with many students paying 9,000 or more We want all students to have the same rights. the type of education that was promised to us has not been provided. but we still have to foot the bill

We want them to place students at the heart of their decision-making and direct universities to review their agreements and policies to give students:
• a choice of exiting their course early so they can return home and start again next year with no financial suffering
• refunds for the students who wish to drop out
• partial refunds for students who remain due to lack of teaching that was promised
