This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

If you on a full or part-time NHS-funded course which will lead to you registering as a doctor or dentist the NHS will already pay your tuition fees.

We could accept a petition calling on the Government to fund tuition fees for other medical courses, but it would need to be clear what courses you wanted the Government to fund free tuition fees for.
