Access and Participation Plan
Any university or college that wants to charge higher tuition fees for home/EU undergraduates must have an access and participation plan (formerly known as an access agreement) approved by the Office for Students.
Access and participation plans cover full-time students and (from 2012-13) part-time students studying at an intensity of at least 25% of a full-time course.
