Wolverhampton South West: What effect will the student vote have?
Students make up just 3 per cent of the UK's population but the British Election Study says their votes could dictate the results in several marginal seats.
Sima Kotecha has been to the constituency of Wolverhampton South West - a marginal Tory seat with a student population of 20,000.
Students from Wolverhampton University aren't planning to vote in May, they're angry about the cost of tuition fees which they say has led to them being in a substantial amount of debt at a young age.
War Studies student Abdul Kadir says he's not planning on voting:
"David Cameron hasn't kept me in his interests, Nick Clegg has lied, and then Labour hasn't come out to say anything about student tuition fees or anything regarding us so I'm probably going to abstain."
The National Union of Students say more than 70 percent of students have registered to vote in this year's general election.
