Dear all Under the council tax exemption regulations for students, students are eligible for exemption as long as they have not completed, withdrawn or been withdrawn. Therefore this covers intercalating students and those repeating PT on a FT course Thanks Anne English Assistant Registrar (Records & Fees) Registry Cockcroft 01273 642811 -----Original Message----- From: Admin-student [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Kennedy, Margaret Sent: 16 August 2007 13:14 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: Intercalation and Council Tax At Teesside we issue exemption certificates for such students, ie who are studying part-time on a full-time route repeating a year of study.

We've been having discussions about whether students who are intercalating are eligible for exemption from Council Tax, and therefore if we should be producing certificates for those students to show to the Council. I've had a look around and many say "yes", some say "no" and several say that it is up to individual councils to interpret the rules (which makes it difficult for us). Does anyone have any clear guidance that they can point me to, or any experiences they can share? Thanks
