This is a request for shared experiences of working with EU and
International Students. At Lancaster, we have an International Students
DSA fund, administered via Student Support, and allocated along the same
lines as the DSA process.
Social care support is not covered by that fund for the reason that
overseas students are required to have sufficient resources when they
arrive, and are supposed not to have recourse to public funds for
support whilst they are here. I would be really grateful to hear of
others' experiences of whether or not they have provided social care
support for EU/International Students (for whom the local social
services department have refused to provide support) and on what basis.
Many thanks indeed.
