Hello all Sorry for the delay, this is the response I've had from the Registrar's department for Durham students. We will be charging the lower fees under the old system. Regards Angela Angela Frankland Accountant Treasurer's Department Durham University -----Original Message----- From: Lovett, Elizabeth Lesley Sent: 30 June 2006 03:33 PM To: Frankland, Angela Subject: RE: RE: Question re Variable Fees Thanks for this Angela. I would disagree with both MMU and the DfES and charge old fees in this instance, quoting the UUK/SCOP guidance which says that, although institutions can according to the regulations charge students transferring new fees, UUK/SCOP strongly recommends that no student is charged more than the statutory support offered by LAs. Most LAs would treat a transferring student as being on the old system, and support them only for £1,200, and if they did I would charge the student £1,200. We've got something to this effect in our policy document on tuition fee charging, let me know if you need me to look it up for you. Best, Liz. ********************************************************************** Mrs Elizabeth Lovett Assistant Registrar Head of Student Financial Support Undergraduate Admissions Office Durham University The University Office Old Elvet Durham DH1 3HP Tel: 0191 334 6116 http://www.dur.ac.uk/studying/student-finance/ *********************************************************************** -----Original Message----- From: Frankland, Angela Sent: 27 June 2006 09:10 AM To: Lovett, Elizabeth Lesley Subject: FW: RE: Question re Variable Fees Dear Liz I don't seem to have had a response from you to this forwarded query.
