fee status query

Hi I recently got an offer from King College but was given overseas fee status despite being a British Citizen maybe because I have been living outside the UK for the last few years due to my fathers business.
In the UKCISA website it is mentioned students aged 16-18 years old in the funding year has no residence requirement if they are a citizen of EEA.

I turn 19 this October but my course starts from September when I will still be 18 so am I eligible for this ?

KCL don’t offer FE courses. You need to look at the HE rules

Have you completed a fee assessment for KCL? If you can prove ordinary residence in the uk (because the stay abroad is temporary) then they may revise your fee status.

yes I did but does the 3 year residence period requires you to stay there just before the course starts or at any point of your life?

You can be living on the moon for over a decade ad still be classed as ordinarily resident in the uk if you can prove that the absence was temporary and you maintained close links with the uk. Ordinary residence does not require you to be physically living in the uk.

Sorry guys I didn't see the FE part. Anyways I lived more than 6 years in UK but came back here 4-5 years ago for my dad's business and I'll be going back right after I finish my A Levels. I'm not sure whether the requirement is to reside there the immediate 3 years before I join the course ( in my case my course starts this September but last 3 years I was out of UK). So am I still eligible ?

Read what I posted.

What do you mean by going right back? To live with your dad or to live in the UK?


I dont think you are. I would say KCL have it correct unless you prodcue evidence to change their opinion of your relationship with the UK.
