The Home Office has announced that it is planning to increase the fees charged to students to extend the length of validity of their visa.

The Annual General Meeting is going to be in the first couple of weeks of term, so it was decided that there wasn't much point doing Christmas reports when the AGM ones would be along so soon afterwards.

Is the union considered a charity as far as it's accounts go, like the uni?



Yes. If you would like a copy of the accounts, it's probably easiest to get them from the secretaries in the general office.

There is no (real) difference to the system in previous years. The change is because of the shift to the 200 point marking scale (0.0-20.0) rather than the 20 point (0-20) scale. It used to be that everything was rounded to the nearest integer, so a 16.5 was always rounded up to 17, but this is of c...
