(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations provide for financial support for eligible students ordinarily resident in Wales undertaking postgraduate courses at the Bologna Center and the College of Europe. The Regulations apply in respect of academic years beginning on or after 1 September 2011.
A grant for fees is available for one eligible student in any one academic year at the Bologna Center. A grant for fees, grants for living and other costs, a disabled students' allowance and a grant for dependants are available for one eligible student in any one academic year at the College of Europe. The period of each grant is one academic year, irrespective of the length of the course.
To qualify for financial support, an applicant must be an eligible student. An applicant is an eligible student if that person falls within one of the categories listed in Part 2 of Schedule 1 and satisfies the eligibility criteria.
These Regulations set out the eligibility criteria, the application procedure and (in the case of College of Europe students) the method of calculating the amounts payable and the arrangements for payment of the grants. The Regulations also provide for recovery of any overpayments.
