can't remember how to do that smart quote-y stuff and the FAQ seems to have disappeared.
Nams "most universities class you as overseas unless the student has been ordinarily resident in the UK and Islands (Channel Islands and Isle of Man)".
If only it were that simple. It's getting a little blurred with some of the most recent fees changes but it's not universities, it's the
HEFCE who decide the rules for "home fees". Home fees covers other EU countries and EEA etc but NOT IoM and Channel Islands (neither are in the EU) and also devolution has made Scotland etc v messy (so we'd better limit this to England and other EU). For IoM and CIs there's an "Islands" rate of fees.
It is stretching the patience and manners of reasonable people that all this nonsense is caused by EU membership. I don't particularly wish for any change but it gets a bit much when students in one's class from far away countries are on home fees because they have produced a (for example) Portuguese passport and you know that the difficulties described here are going on for Brits.
