UCAS Form Residency Status - Brexit

Uk citizen, living in EEA, who fits the requirements of the UKs home Fees status following the UK withdrawal from the EU. The UCAS form, for 2024 entry, residency status does not have an option for a UK citizen living in EEA who qualifies for home fees under the withdrawal agreement. Instead it offers only "Other". Has anyone experienced this, and was this the correct choice? It seems odd for a UK citizen to be labelled "other" by a UK university system.

Other is fine. It just means your situation is a bit complicated and universities might need a bit more information from you to verify that you’re home fees. Other starts that process of verification.

Thanks PQ. Are you speaking from a position of authority ( admissions?) or personal experience?
