1. To be eligible for the Alumni Discount you must:
i. Have graduated from Staffordshire University (including students who have completed a Staffordshire University degrees oversees) with either an undergraduate degree or postgraduate award.
ii. Not be taking a course that is fully funded by the Teaching Agency, the NHS or any other organisation. If you’ve applied for a Masters Loan from Student Finance this does not affect your eligibility.
iii. Not be in receipt of another Staffordshire University discount, bursary or scholarship that exceeds the total fee reduction you may receive through the alumni discount scheme. In the event you qualify for more than one award you’ll receive whichever gives you the greatest discount.
2. You will receive a maximum fee reduction of 25%, providing you progress onto further study within 2 years of graduating. If you graduated more than 2 years ago, you’ll receive a 10% fee reduction.
3. Discounts will be awarded both to self-funding students (based on the amount you’re required to pay) and external sponsors (based on the amount payable by your sponsor) only (excluding Government/NHS agencies grants and bursaries).
4. All discounts are reviewed on an annual basis and may change or be removed for future years. If you enrol onto a course that lasts more than one academic year, you’ll continue to receive a discount for each year you study with us provided you complete the course in the original agreed timeframe.
5. Should you withdraw, or be withdrawn, from your studies either permanently or temporarily, the University reserves the right to claim back the value of any reduction in fees you’ve received.
6. The discount will be granted at the sole discretion of the University and in accordance with these Terms and Conditions.
7. All discounts will be applied against tuition fees only. No cash or other alternatives are available.
8. If you transfer courses, the University cannot guarantee that you’ll continue to receive the discount against your new course.
9. If you don’t complete your course of study the University reserves the right to recoup any reduction in fees you’ve already received.
10. The University reserves the right to recover any outstanding debts you may have with the University from any bursary or scholarship awarded to you, which may affect the value of any fee reduction applied.
