Summary of Changes from Previous Version

January 2025 – Scheduled Review. Clearer instructions for students seeking clarification for decisions they don’t understand but removal of referring to it as an informal “review” to reduce confusion; “review” has been removed throughout, and the documents only refer to “appeals”; Clarification that a student should resubmit a new application with new evidence for unsuccessful elite athlete applications, fitness for study and Medal and Executive Dean awards rather than appealing a decline with new evidence. Approved under delegation A8.

February 2025: In clause 40 “NSW Ombudsman” has been replaced with “National Student Ombudsman”.
