Hi
At Staffordshire "dormant" students are given access to the library and
IT support. However they are not allowed tutor support they would need
to register with attendance. I am not sure of the licence issues
Students who are withdrawn/intermitting are not given access. However
if they are intermitting through approved 60 days illness then they
would be given an exception.
I would be interested in a summary of the responses

Subject: access for resit and suspended/withdrawn students
Dear all,
I was wondering whether you may be able to help with a question we're
looking into at Warwick. Here, when a student has been permitted to
're-sit without residence' they are not given library access or use of
any other facilities, nor are they entitled to any academic support
(although in reality it is not possible to stop a student from attending
lectures or seeking/receiving guidance from staff). Even students who
are sitting exams as a first attempt but in the following September/June
exams period are not given access to facilities. Are such students at
other HEIs routinely given access to University facilities? Are there
any difficulties with this i.e.
has the issue of software license for IT access been raised?
Similarly, what level of access to facilities (particularly IT and
library) is enjoyed by students who are in suspension/withdrawal for
medical or personal reasons? Are such students actively discouraged from
being on campus or is this allowed on an informal basis?
