Petition Action

Allow university students to have in person graduation in 2021

Petition Details

Force university to hold an in person graduation, even if it is outside.

Additional Information

I am a 3rd year student who is supposed to graduate this year and would like to have an in person graduation as opposed to a virtual one. Football matches, the Brit awards and the current event that was held in Liverpool were allowed to go ahead. Celebrities shouldn’t be allowed more freedoms that student just because they’re rich. It’s bad enough we have to pay £9000 a year but to have paid £27000 and not be able to experience graduation is disgusting.

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions must call for a specific action that the UK Government or House of Commons is responsible for.

Decisions about whether to hold graduation ceremonies are a matter for individual universities, not the Government or House of Commons.

We have published the following petition, which you might like to sign:
