Hi
Apologies for cross posting.
We are currently reviewing our procedures relating to the assessment of the
fee status of an applicant. At Brunel University we follow The Education
(Fees and Awards) Regulations very closely and will very rarely apply any
discretion. From talking with colleagues it would appear that a number of
institutions apply discretion (as provided for within the regulations) in a
number of circumstances such as applicants who are Asylum seekers.
I should be grateful if you would let me know if you currently apply
discretion when assessing fee status and the types of circumstances that
would lead you to that decision.
If you are willing to provide the following information, please return it
directly to me. I will post a summary to the list if there is any demand
from colleagues.
many thanks in advance
Kevin
