Faculty Forum Registration Deadlines • We chase up EL students who are not yet registered, and apply holds to students who do not register by set deadlines • Some students are made permanently withdrawn due to failure to register • With the introduction of the new Points Based System, our deadlines have got to become much stricter, and have changed slightly
Faculty Forum Registration Deadlines • Any students who have not registered by the deadline will be made permanently withdrawn, regardless of the reason • It is then your responsibility to arrange for a Reinstatement Form to be submitted if the student has been in attendance • The form must be submitted by the Director of Learning and Teaching/Head of School within 5 working days
Faculty Forum Registration Deadlines Once we have reached the final deadline, no further reinstatements will be authorised, and students may have to re-apply for next session. International students WILL be reported to the United Kingdom Border Agency, and their Visa status WILL be affected. IT IS VITAL THAT YOUR STUDENTS ARE REMINDED TO REGISTER WELL WITHIN THE DEADLINES
