Those students who are eligible for living cost support as a result of
Bidar will also be eligible for DSA. This will only affect EU Nationals and
the children of EU Nationals who have resided in the UK for three years
prior to the start of their course. Other EU students will still normally
only qualify for fee support, unless they have EEA migrant worker status.
LEAs can revisit cases for students who started in 2004/05, so if you are
aware of students who met this criteria and were refused living cost
support you should get them to contact their LEA.

Hi all,
Here's an interesting one for you, does anyone know if the recent Bidar
case re: eligibility to Student Support has affected the rights of
disabled students from the EU to claim DSA? That is, can they claim
now?
Regards
Pauline
