THE ACFT NOSE GEAR COLLAPSED DURING LANDING ON A STUDENT SOLO FLT. THE STUDENT AND CFI FLEW A DUAL FLT FIRST AND SOME AIRWORK AND 3 LANDINGS WERE ACCOMPLISHED. THE 1ST LANDING AFTER THE CFI GOT OUT OF THE ACFT WAS NOSE FIRST WITH A BOUNCEAND A GO-AROUND. THIS HAPPENED 3 TIMES BEFORE THE TOWER CALLED THE CFI. THE CFI WAS ON HIS WAY TO THE TOWER AND THE TOWER HAD TOLD THE STUDENT TO ORBIT UNTIL THE INSTRUCTOR ARRIVED. THE STUDENT PILOT REPLIED THAT HE 'DIDN'T NEED ANY HELP.' THE FINAL AND FOURTH LANDING WAS ALSO NOSE FIRST, COLLAPSING THE NOSE GEAR.
