According to the appeal, the students, for the purpose of granting them benefits, should not be coupled with their parents, and subsistence benefits should be granted considering students' economic situation, not their academic performance.
More than 6,000 students from over ten universities have signed the FESU appeal, which has been submitted also to the Riigikogu, the Government and the Legal Chancellor.
