Students who reside is in NI who study in the South/England/Scotland/wales not be included in this payment? They all apply to their local student finance in their Board area for student loans?This should also be the way it is paid out to students as systems are already in place!
@AnnaOMcCleave highlighting the plight of students who are now working from home, paying rent and fees of over £9000. Never mind missing out on her field trips,lab work and study abroad to Madrid @BBCWatchdog@dundeeuni@Geog_UoD#rentfornowt
and as we are approaching the end of January 2021 I am still at my family home in Belfast paying rent for my student accommodation in Dundee which is not being used and it is unlikely I will be returning to Dundee anytime soon @NicolaSturgeon@CMAgovUK@BBCWatchdog#rentfornowt
#rentfornowt@BBCWatchdog students living in privately rented accommodation are being forgotten about. We are paying hundreds of pounds per person per month in rent for a house we're not living in and cannot return to until face to face teaching begins @CMAgovUK
#rentfornowt I was at home from March 2020 to September 2020 studying online while alsopaying rent at my private student accommodation. I returned to my accommodation in September for uni to begin and had to leave it again at the start of November as the covid situation worsened
Reminiscing about these these pictures we took on our final fieldwork trip a year ago, it’s sad we won’t be able to do the same on any field trips this year like we had hoped :(
Have been told to stay at home until at least the start of March by #university what about the £9250 fees many including myself have paid for this full academic year of online teaching (so far)? #studentfee#remotelearning
And the rent upwards of £400+ each a month we are all paying for houses and flats that are not being used, with #studentloans#studentfinance that don’t even cover the cost of the accommodation @SF_England
How can they cancel alevels and gcses but expect #university students to continue to perform at high levels, on top of paying rent for empty houses and thousands of pounds (£9250) in fees for nearly a complete year of online learning??? #COVID19#university@NicolaSturgeon
The health and wellbeing of our students and staff is paramount. We have decided to suspend the face to face delivery of learning and teaching from Monday 16 March to help reduce the risk of spread of coronavirus within our community.
