Mrs Burt said in a press release: "This is an important step to benefit anyone in Solihull who would be considering university education.
"Whether you want to study locally or go further a field, the decision should be based on your aspirations, grades and intelligence, not the wealth of your parents.
"It's simply wrong to penalise people who want to make the best of themselves by saddling them with enormous mortgage-style debts from the day they graduate.
"My priority is making degrees affordable for people here in Solihull, and that means scrapping these unfair fees."
Party leader Nick Clegg said a Liberal Democrat Government would scrap all fees within six years of election.
Labour and the Conservatives “refuse to address the issue”, he said, and warned they could lift the cap on fees.
The Conservatives have backed fees.
