Petition Help fund University tuition fees for Asylum seekers

Education plays a big part in once life & the problem in this day an age is the tuition cost of universities. they're are many asylum seekers out there willing to study and learn but due to certain restriction such as them not being able to work it is more than impossible they could pay for the fees

More details

I am an asylum seeker myself and my case has been going on for over 9 years and I'm current looking to start university with my brother in September if I can get hold of the right funds. my position has been tough and I can only imagine that they're other asylum seekers out there in my shoes. During my first 2 years at college I met the required grade to get into university which was a D*D*D but because I was unable to get any form of funding and couldn't work meant that I had to pick up extra year at college which I have now finished and applied for Chester University hoping that this time around the I get the funding for me and my brother
