Fee Contributions Sample Clauses

Fee Contributions. 64. The College is continuing to commit to a three-year investment in partial fee waivers to increase participation from key demographics and OFFA target groups. Over £10,000 per year (attributed to paragraph 53) has been made available and will be distributed evenly across all eligible new entrants (to provide transition support across levels) and this will continue up to 2019/2020. Eligible students must report a household income of £25,000 or under and declare and share this information on the SLC Portal, demonstrating their eligibility through the confirmation of student loan entitlement and supplementary evidence. Students will be informed of this partial fee waiver amount via an Award Notification Letter, and this amount will be deducted from their student loan in January. As an indication of the approximate fee waiver for students beginning in 2018/19, our 2016/17 data recorded that approximately 30 students would have met the eligibility criteria in 2016/17, which would have resulted in a deduction of approximately £330 per student, from their first year tuition fees only. This estimated figure will obviously vary slightly based on the number of eligible students. While we are confident that, for most students, this package should provide an appropriate level of support, we are, in addition to the core package, investing in hardship funds (see section 5.6 below) to provide an additional safety net for those UK students who, through no fault of their own, find themselves in financial difficulty during their studies.
