• Lord Browne published his report on 12th October 2010 and
The Secretary of State made a statement in the House of
Commons responding to and endorsing the report the same
day
• The Public Spending Review concluded on 20th October 2010
• The Minister of State for Universities & Science made a
statement to the house on 3rd November 2010 outlining the
governments proposals for HE Funding in 2012 and beyond,
which included many of Lord Browne’s recommendations
• A full white paper will be published during the winter
2012/13 Arrangements
![Page 4: Student Finance Update 30 th November 2010 Wiltshire College Andy Shenton Senior Student Finance Consultant South & Isle of Wight](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022110303/55171567550346fe558b55b9/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
• Any reforms will be introduced for those entering higher education in 2012. Any changes to higher education funding and student finance will therefore not affect those already at university, those starting in 2011 and those who have left university and are in repayment
• The government normally tries to announce the details of the student support arrangements in the summer of the year when most students apply. So, for those starting university in autumn 2012, details on student support should be announced by summer 2011
• Students who defer entry from 2011/12 to 2012/13 will have their loans and grants for living costs set at the 2012/13 rates. It will be for Universities to decide the level of tuition fees they charge.
2012/13 Arrangements
