SCHOOL FEES DISCOUNT(Nigerian International students)

This petition aims to foster discount on our increased tuition fee for 2024/2025 semester year. We Nigerian students paid £15,600 during our first university year (2023/2024) semester as there was a discount on our tuition fee. However, this year, we realized that the discount has been eliminated and we are ask to pay £17,200 a whopping more than 10% increase. This increase is financially daunting for us, our parents, family and supporters due to the stupendously high currency exchange rate as our currency (Naira) is constantly reducing. Therefore, we seek a discount (possibly back to £15,600) for this new term’s tuition fee to enable us meet up with payments.
