2012 fees/funding regime
• New fees: variable, up to £9K per level full-time
• Tuition fee loans for part-time students
• Financial support for 25% FTE
• No upper age limit for tuition fee loans
• Part-time students no longer automatically deemed to be ‘independent’

• What are universities doing about part-time fees?
• Possible implications:
Final departure of ELQs?
End of employer funding for courses?
Other/overall effects on student recruitment?

Issues arising: financial support
• Institutional support packages
• Mechanics of applying these to part-time students
• Variations in types of courses offered by LL depts (much less ‘standard’ than other depts?)
• Operational arrangements within the institution
