Terms of Reference
To advise the Government on, and to keep under review, the operation of the Tertiary Student Finance Scheme - Publicly-funded Programmes and the Non-means Tested Loan Scheme to ensure that their objectives and the needs of the community are met.
The Objectives of the Schemes are that
- Tertiary Student Finance Scheme - Publicly-funded Programmes :
| (i) |
no student who is offered a place in any of the tertiary institutions should be deterred from accepting that place because of a lack of means; |
| (ii) |
financial assistance to students should be based on need; and |
| (iii) |
such assistance should take the form of a combination of grants and loans. |
- Non-means Tested Loan Scheme :
| (i) |
students may obtain financial assistance, on a non-means tested basis, to meet the cost of their tertiary tuition fees; and |
| (ii) |
such assistance should take the form of loans on a no-gain-no-loss and cost recovery basis. |
