Govt’s Failure To Pay Their Fees About To Cause Their Dismissal
Some of the nation’s students on scholarship abroad are on the brink of being thrown out their universities because of government’s woeful failure to pay their fees.
Eleven Ghanaian students at the University of Nottingham, in the UK, might any moment now be fully suspended by the university following the continuous failure of the government to pay their fees.
A letter addressed by the University dated August 8, 2008 informed the students that if their fees are not paid in full within three weeks of the letter, they will all be fully suspended from the University of Nottingham.
The letter continued as follows: “The consequences of a full suspension will be that you will no longer be a registered student and you will have none of the associated privileges. You will not be able to attend any classes, tutorials or supervision sessions; you will not be able to use the facilities of the University and your door access will be cancelled.”
Other additional consequences and humiliation to be suffered by the hapless Ghanaians students are the loss of university accommodation and the loss of student visa, which most likely will lead to repatriation back to Ghana .
The letter, signed by Jackie Codrington of the University’s Credit Contol office, also informed the eleven students that they were to return all library books immediately because the university has already withdrawn all their IT and library access rights.
