Due to Covid-19 restrictions, many international students are learning from their home country or from UK through blended learning approach. With that the main purpose of going to esteemed University is unfulfilled. Without access to the facilities and without access to the resources that are present on the campus, the learning experience has not been the same. so that is why some sort of relief is needed in tuition fee for especially international students. Since the fees for international students is way too high than home students.

In addition, Global economy has fallen down throughout this year(2020) so monthly income per capita shrink drastically and in these circumstances international students could not able to pay their hefty fees.
