This petition is in support of reducing tuition fees for Physiotherapy students due to the limited academic experience we face at Brunel University this year in regards to the COVID -19 pandemic. As students, we pay large amounts of money to have in-person lectures, access to the facilities on the campus, and an appropriate social experience with students and professors. 

The University experience in which we pay a significant amount has been largely reduced this year, especially for a programme such as a physiotherapy. There are limitations or no access to study rooms/classrooms causing students to be isolated to their rooms, the social life on campus has been significantly depleted, and the majority of our learning has been pushed online. Understanding that there is a pandemic occurring, the students in the Physiotherapy programme (MSc and BSc) believe that the annual increase of tuition should have been suspended, and 2020/2021 tuition should be reduced to reflect the quality of our University experience! 

If you are a student in the Physiotherapy Bachelors or Masters programme and feel strongly about reducing the tuition for the 2020/2021 academic year then please sign below.
