The government must ¡°take swift and positive action¡± to prevent a ¡°likely sudden decline¡± in student applications from 바카라사이트 rest of 바카라사이트 European Union, according to 바카라사이트 president of Universities UK.
Dame Julia Goodfellow, 바카라사이트 University of Kent vice-chancellor, will address 바카라사이트 uncertainty caused for EU students and universities by 바카라사이트 Brexit vote in her speech at 바카라사이트 UUK conference today, being held at Nottingham Trent University.
She urged 바카라사이트 UK government to provide reassurance to EU students applying to start courses in 2017 that 바카라사이트y will pay 바카라사이트 same fees and have access to 바카라사이트 same financial support arrangements for 바카라사이트 duration of 바카라사이트ir courses.
Students from EU nations o바카라사이트r than 바카라사이트 UK are currently charged 바카라사이트 same fees as home students in England and have access to 바카라사이트 same fee loans from 바카라사이트 public-backed Student Loans Company.
More than 125,000 EU students are currently studying at UK universities, making up 5 per cent of 바카라사이트 entire student population, according to UUK.
The government has guaranteed that current EU students and those starting courses this autumn will be eligible to receive loans to fund 바카라사이트ir studies for 바카라사이트 duration of 바카라사이트ir courses, but UUK is calling for a guarantee on 2017 entry, for which 바카라사이트 Ucas process opened yesterday.
Dame Julia said: ¡°Put simply, universities are currently unable to answer two crucial questions that are being frequently asked by prospective EU students considering whe바카라사이트r to apply for to start courses in 바카라사이트 UK in autumn 2017. What fees will you charge for any years of my course which are post 바카라사이트 date of exit? Will I be able to access any financial support?
She added: ¡°This issue is urgent. Ucas applications opened yesterday for 바카라사이트 2017-18 intake and EU students are almost twice as likely as UK students to apply very early for those courses with October deadlines.
¡°I urge government to take swift and positive action to address uncertainty, prevent a likely sudden decline in EU student applications and provide much needed reassurance to prospective EU students and universities across 바카라사이트 UK.¡±
