  2. 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’

  3. Issues arising: fees Institutional fee-setting: • 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?

  4. 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

  5. And another thing… (or two) • Mindset of part-time, mature learners • Maintenance of separate systems for pre-2012 cohort(s)
