Reduced Tuition for Seneca ANI and ILU Students

The Issue

It seems that for the Fall semester we will have online classes. This is obviously very upsetting considering the in-person component of our programs is absolutely vital. I feel that by making it online only, we lose the ability to network, attend life drawing, take advantage of the resources (computers, hardware, licensed software) in the Animation Center, and, lets face it, the online lectures over Zoom in no way compare to getting actual in-person feedback from our profs.

We did not enroll in an online school. If we are getting a reduced program we should be paying a reduced rate. We all love Seneca, the program up until now has been fantastic, it's upsetting that this situation is happening.

CERB will run out by September. Some of us might be in a dire financial situation as it is and sending us out without a full education and still having to pay the same amount may leave people in a very bad spot.    

We obviously care about our education, and Seneca has given us a lot. We just want what’s fair. We want to be able to leave Seneca with the same level of skills, experience and network as previous graduates. Barring that we shouldn’t have to pay the same rate they did.
