Subject: Admin SLC
Dear All
It was clear to many of us who attended the recent SLC conference in
Glasgow, that one of the issues in dealing with the SLC is the lack of
communication about problems common to most HEI's. Many of us hit the
same problems and deal with the SLC to try and resolve them but there
has been no vehicle for institutions to compare notes or to alert others
to problems that they may be facing. It was worrying that an evening's
conversation in the bar, (mineral water only of course), revealed issues
that some of us were not even aware existed.
We appreciate that not everyone who subscribes to Admin Student deals
with this area of work and we felt that it might be better if
discussions on this topic went elsewhere. Therefore we have set up a new
list, Admin-SLC which is designed for those who deal with the SLC on
fees, loans and bursaries.
With the future centralisation of student support under the SLC we felt
it would be useful for there to be a forum whereby institutions could
share information and discuss common problems. Whilst sometimes it may
simply be an opportunity to let off stream, we also hope that colleagues
will find it helpful to see how other institutions are dealing with
particular issues.
