Reduce tuition fees for International Students due to COVID-19

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

International students have been entirely neglected this school year, and I urge the Government to reimburse tuition fees for International Students enrolled in UK Institutions.
International Students are paying c.£18,000 tuition fees this year alone whilst being taught online and/or are unable to return to their institutions’ campus. Their education has been severely neglected and I urge the government to rectify this.

Why it was rejected

There was already a petition about this issue. Duplicates are rejected so signatures collect in one place.

Fees for international students are set by individual universities, not the Government or House of Commons, but you may wish to sign some of these petitions:
