However, the University does not provide education on a commercial basis. It is also largely dependent on charitable and public funds which the University has to manage in a way which is efficient and cost effective in the context of the provision of a wide range of courses and services to a large number of students. The University therefore reserves the right to make variations to the contents and method of delivery of courses and other services, to discontinue courses and other services and to merge or combine courses, if such action is reasonably considered to be necessary by the University. If the University discontinues any course, it will use its best endeavours to provide a suitable alternative course. All students will be required, as a condition of enrolment, to agree to abide by and to submit to the procedures of the University s Regulations as amended from time to time. A copy of the current Regulations is available online at www.kent.ac.uk/regulations Data protection and consent to process For the University to operate efficiently, it needs to process information about you for administrative, academic and health and safety reasons. Any offer this institution makes to you is subject to your consent to process such information and is therefore a requirement before we can register you as a student.
