Yes. It just feels wrong that we allow ukrainian students of ukrainian universities to stay, but gave all other students of Ukrainian universities a random time period and they cant finish their studies.

Ukraine is at war. It's not the same.

Again: all of them are studying at Ukrainian universities. All of them could go to Ukraine and finish the studies there. Or finish their studies in Europe.

The EU makes the distinctive choice to let certain students stay and not let other students stay.

Ukraine is at war, obviously we're not sending students back to a country that's at war. Nigeria isn't at war. Their students can go back to Nigeria just fine, even if sucks to do so without the promised degree.

Well of course it does and it's very sensible to do so.
