On April 7th the final instalment of £4320 of my university tuition fees for the first year of my course. My last day at university was on April 1st, I have just paid £4320 for nothing because I am not going and have completed my exams. While I as at university I went in for only 7 hours a week, and when I asked for help for my coursework I was refused because 'We are not allowed to be helped and it is not on the class schedule for teachers to help us'. So I am paying £9000 per year for 7 hours of work a week and no help? How can it be justified that students are charged such a large amount of money? And why has no one campaigned for fees to be lowered sooner? I hope that with enough signatures fees can be lowered to a more acceptable and affordable amount of money.

9 grand for 7 hours a week is a joke. i barely see my tutor and most of the work is self taught anyway. something needs to change soon.
