Jan 17, 2013 10:12 GMT The Office for Fair Access (OFFA) is right to put engaging students at the heart of the creation of institutions’ access agreements but must be careful not to dismiss evidence that bursaries are a valuable way to offer financial support to students, said the National Union of Students (NUS) today.

Jul 26, 2012 00:01 BST The National Union of Students (NUS) today (Thursday 26 July 2012) responded to the publication by the Office for Fair Access (OFFA) of decisions on access agreements for the 2013-14 academic year, and which are submitted by universities that wish to charge tuition fees of more than £6,000 a year.

Jul 04, 2012 00:01 BST Analysis of new Office for Fair Access (OFFA) figures conducted by the National Union of Students (NUS) shows that upfront bursary and scholarship spending on poorer university students is set fall by £83 million between the 2010/11 academic year and the 2015/16 academic year.
