Fees reduction for international students by 50% at least for this year!

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

We, International students want at least a 50% fees discount only for the academic year 20/21. because we never paid for online classes. we all came here for international exposure but here we r not even using the campus facilities. And we have suffered and we are suffering more than anyone.
Government has to do it if they want to increase the number of International Students in the country.
Right now international students are suffering financially a lot because they all come from developing countries and their businesses and jobs are affected more than anywhere in the world and because of that they are suffering mentally.
The UK government will create an example globally if they come up with a relive package for international students.
