Students at the University of Sunderland are being charged up to £35 a ticket to have their friends and family at their graduation. This price includes nothing, no drinks, no buffet, no photographer, nothing.On top of this, we still have to pay up to £46 for our robes, which are compulsory! This is going to cost us a fortune. Have we not spent enough money in tuition fees and living expenses alone, and now, right at the end they are charging us even more! This is one of the only universitys in the county that do this! Sign this petition to ban the graduation fees, even if you are not graduating this year, you've got all this to come. Thanks for your support

Ridiculous. We already paid thousands for the degree, why do they need to squeeze us for more just to walk across a stage?

THE ROBE HIRE PRICE IS THE WORST PART. forced to pay it as if tuition isnt high enough. stop being greedy.

35 quid for a guest ticket is daylight robbery. Literally paying for a seat in a room. Absolute joke.
