No student accommodation provider should be able to avail of financial supports from the State if the provider is not prepared to refund students who have been forced to leave college early. This not only applies to private accommodation providers. The University of Limerick had to be shamed into refunding students. It is not good enough that students are not being refunded fees for half a semester despite the call from the Minister for Education and Skills that he would like to see private providers of student accommodation provide pro ratarefunds to students.
