University rejects appeals of 19-year-old who quit course after six days because of Covid fears
Like many students caught up in the pandemic, 19-year-old Gracie* has spent the last few months feeling desperately worried about her finances. The daughter of a single parent on a low income, she was told she owed Nottingham Trent University more than £6,000 in rent because she spent just six days living in the university’s student accommodation last September.
It is a debt that, until Guardian Money stepped in and took up her case, she had no idea how she would ever manage to repay.
