For example, if you miss a payment and we do not chase you but we continue to provide the Programme, we can still require you to make the payment at a later date.  

18.8    Governing Law and Jurisdiction. These Terms are governed exclusively by the law of England and Wales and you can only bring legal proceedings in respect of the Programme and/or your contract with Arden in the courts of England and Wales.

What evidence is required?

Award and Conditions 

Please see details below for elements of the Bursary you may be eligible to receive in the event of an award. All students in receipt of the Bursary must complete a follow-up evaluation which will be sent via your university email within 4 weeks of the award otherwise they shall be in breach of these terms and conditions.

Financial Support Fund Element Award Conditions 
Emergency Fund / Financial Hardship

Food vouchers 

BACS transfer 

Your evidence will be reviewed, and the decision will be made based on your income, expenditure, and current financial status. Once assessed the University will exercise its discretion as to whether a standard or nonstandard award is to be granted. Standard awards are those made to help with the general costs of being a student, where essential expenditure is offset against expected income. If the former is higher, the student is viewed as having an ‘additional need’; the University contributes 70% for a period of 8 weeks. If the former is not higher but the student requires short-term support, vouchers for supplies will be awarded. Non-standard awards should be used for students who evidence unforeseen exceptional circumstances; the value of the award is discretionary based on the evidence provided by the student. 
Digital Inclusion Bursary

A specified laptop will be awarded to you by the University.  

A gifted voucher for internet broadband will be awarded for a short-term solution of 3-months. 

The laptop will include essential software to complete your studies. The make and model of the laptop are variable and dependent on availability however it will be assessed to meet basic student requirements for study. Where a student is studying a course which requires non-standard software the university may consider alternative support options which suit the student’s needs. You are not permitted to sell the laptop whilst you remain a student at Arden University.  

Internet broadband will be gifted as part of a voucher for a period of up to 3 months. 

Inclusion BursaryYou may book an assessment with the university’s specified provider. The provider will be reimbursed directly by Arden University.  Any assessment must be booked in at the student’s earliest convenience and confirmed with the Student Inclusion Team. 
Berlin Hardship fundFinancial support (typically 200EUR) for essential food and travelEvidence of financial hardship

 

Arden University funds membership of the National Association of Student Money Advisers (NAMSA). Assessors, who are members of NASMA, will examine how well you meet the eligibility criteria for the Bursary with a particular focus on: 

Provision: you must have made realistic provision for all course-related costs, including fees, before starting your course.  

  • Examples of provision may include permanent employment or a suitable level of savings. The Financial Support Fund can only assist with urgent, short-termsituations and should therefore not be considered as a primary source of funding.  

An unforeseen change in circumstance: This must occur after the start of the course, and in the same academic year that you are applying for the Bursary.  

  • Examples of unforeseen change may include redundancy, illness, or domestic issue.  

Supporting statement: as part of your application form you will be asked to provide a statement and it should consider the two points above.  

Financial Situation: In addition to the information in your personal statement, we will look at your income and expenditure to understand your financial situation. If you have high levels of non-essential expenditure, your application may be rejected.  

 

All information provided in support of your application will be considered and we encourage you to provide as much information as possible to give us a full picture of your circumstances.  

We aim to complete the assessment and provide an outcome of a complete application with evidence within 20 working days, if you are required to provide further evidence to support your application, the 20 working days will only start from the point we have received all necessary evidence.  

 

Award arrangements 

  • Payment will only be processed for successful applications within 7-10 working days and will be paid directly to your nominated UK bank account as stated in your application. 

Where there is an urgent need for food or travel this may be expedited providing the student has specified this in their application form. Where possible awards will be sent digitally via email however vouchers may also require postage.  

Typically, you will not be eligible for multiple awards from the Bursary within the same academic year. However, in exceptional circumstances and if you are experiencing unexpected and unforeseen financial difficulty an additional claim may be considered. In this event, you will need to complete a brand-new application form and submit evidence to your support your new application. Please note that you can only apply for the Bursary in the same academic year if you have not been in receipt or awarded the Bursary within the last 3 calendar months.  

Please note that internet, travel, and food vouchers will only be issued as a short-term solution, and it will be the student’s responsibility to ensure that long-term provision is in place.  

 

Award suspension and termination 

The award will be suspended during a period of approved leave of absence where this period covers a whole or part of an academic year. On your return to studies, you may apply/reapply for the Bursary if you meet the eligibility criteria.  

If you withdraw from your studies or are required to withdraw, any scheduled Bursary award(s) will not be made. Your award will be terminated if you cease to be registered as a student or for good cause at the discretion of the Financial Support Team.  

Arden University reserves the right to recover funds where a Bursary has been awarded under false pretence or these terms and conditions have been breached.  

 

Appeals  

If you are dissatisfied with the decision of your outcome, you can appeal within 10 working days of your outcome via email to hardshipfund@arden.ac.uk  

Your appeal will be considered by the Inclusion Services Manager or his/her nominee with respect to the details raised in your appeal. Arden University has absolute discretion on the outcome of your application form and if your appeal is unsuccessful then the decision is final.

The Design Brief – Arden Berlin Buddy Bear Competition

Background

For many years now, the Buddy Bear sculptures have been globally popular figures. On the one hand, they are recognised as an unofficial symbol of Berlin. On the other hand, through the many United Buddy Bears exhibitions, the bears stand for tolerance, international understanding and living together in peace. Along with these two core values, their popularity also originates in their friendly-looking bear shape and their diverse artistic designs.

Objective

You are required to create a digital design to cover the Berlin Buddy Bear to be used as the Arden Berlin Study Centre mascot.

Please note: if you are chosen as the winner you will be required to come to our Berlin Study Centre to paint your design on the physical bear that we provide, in accordance with clause 6 of the Terms and Conditions.

We plan to unveil the painted mascot at the Arden University’s student lounge opening party on 5th May 2023.

Your design should:

  1. Be an original and unique work of art;
  2. Convey a broad international body of students;
  3. Use typography and pictograms from many cultures;
  4. Embody the word ‘fun’;
  5. Not be overly simplistic. Designs showing the bear with shirt and trousers or overalls are prohibited;
  6. Not include any logos, website addresses or printed advertising; and
  7. Comply with the Buddy Bear Berlin guidelines (https://shop.buddy-baer.com/media/pdf/9d/99/62/BBB-Design-Guidelines.pdf).

Target audience

  1. Arden University students
  2. Arden University staff
  3. Visitors to the Berlin Study Centre

  1. The design will be painted on the physical Bear mascot which will be used as the Arden Berlin Study Centre mascot.

The book is an academic key skills book which covers subjects including settling into university, blended learning and preparing students for the journey ahead.

The chapters progress to discuss key skills in relation to topics such as academic skills, critical thinking, what to do in the final year of the course. The book further discusses research projects and how to put a project together.

The book title is ‘Key Skills’. The title reflects the myriad of skills that the book outlines in depth in order to prepare a student for the intersectionality between academia and employability which is at the core of the book.

The Design

The book cover will be available via our BibliU library and across various media and will represent a clear workflow of the skills and tools needed for good healthcare management. The cover will be seen by thousands of current students and future graduates and their families.

It is hoped that this cover will spark a social media campaign to raise awareness about the book and its practical application as a student resource, this needs to be considered whilst preparing the design for the book cover.

Design Elements

Your design of the book cover must include:

  1. a split page that defines the progression route from start to completion; and
  2. a 3-part progression image displaying the start, middle and end of the journey.

The book cover should be:

  1. clear;

If we delay in enforcing any of these terms, we may still enforce any of them later. If we do not insist immediately that you meet your obligations under these terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of you breaking these terms that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us from taking steps against you at a later date.

Each of the provisions in these terms operates separately. If a court finds any part of these terms unlawful, the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect.

These terms are governed exclusively by English law and both you and us irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the English courts for any claim arising under or in connection with these terms and any non-contractual obligation arising out of or in connection with them.
