Students at the University of Limerick have hit out at the college for not issuing refunds for an international trip which was cancelled due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

More than 100 students at the Kemmy Business School (KBS) are out of pocket and have requested a refund of up to €1,690, which was included in the cost of their postgraduate fees for the 2020 academic year as a mandatory workshop which was described as an "integral part of the programme".
