Petition Action

Student rent should be lowered and not exceed £300-£350

Petition Details

Student rent is really expensive. There should be a cap on how much rent you should pay as a student.

Additional Information

Maintance loan doesn't cover everything let alone your rent even if you come from a low income family

Students at best have a part time job normally at minimum wage

Landlords and letting agents rip off students- you have to pay for everything and once they have your money they don't care.

They think as a student you won't and can't do anything.

On top of the loan you have to pay back you also have to try and figure out how to pay your rent.. This sometimes doesn't include bills.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Student rents are not the responsibility of the Government and Parliament. They are the responsibility of whoever is providing the accommodation - e.g., private landlords, universities, and so on.
