▪ New arrangements for student finance in England from 2012
▪ Any institution will be able to charge up to £6k per annum, and
in “exceptional cases” higher contributions up to £9k

the government provides access to loans to cover tuition fees
▪ Students will only start to contribute when they are earning
over £21,000
▪ The National Scholarship Programme will provide additional
assistance to students from disadvantaged backgrounds

Issues for the Tariff Review
▪ Needs to cover all regulated Level 3 qualifications
▫ And Access qualifications.....
▪ May need to distinguish between MI and evaluation;
between academic and vocational/applied content
▪ Must be an accessible, defensible and proportionate
process
▪ Should not duplicate or create regulatory process
▫ Relationship with regulatory requirements; with AAT?
▪ Have clear scope and purposes
▫ Offer making? Employers’ needs? Quality mark? Hurdle
for student finance entitlement?

Admissions Process Review
▪ A better business process
▫ More efficient – fewer transactions
▫ Fixing bugs
▫ More intuitive search and apply
▪ Able to deal with complexity
▫ Different intensities of study
▫ Different start dates
▫ Differential fees
▫ UG, PG,
▫ Different admissions procedures (eg medicine)
▪ Or........

Some more radical solutions?
▪ Post qualifications admissions
▪ Sequential applications vs parallel
▪ Institution chooses applicant?
