Agri universities to issue rent refunds to students
19 January 2021 |
Arrangements for lockdown rent refunds have been confirmed by numerous universities
Numerous land-based universities and agri-colleges have confirmed they will issue rent refunds to students due to the UK s current lockdown.
The government is seeking to reduce the movement of students into and across the country to minimise transmission risks.
Current coronavirus advice is that students should not return to university campuses until at least February.
Harper Adams University said students whose courses will continue online, who are not permitted to return to university-owned accommodation, will receive refunds.
Students in catered accommodation will receive a refund for the catering element of their accommodation fees for the period 9-18 December 2020 as well as the full rent refund.
