In response to provider queries about the impact of deferrals, suspensions and cancellations on New Overseas Student Commencements (NOSCs) and Ministerial Direction 111, the Department of Education has released a new fact sheet.
The NOSC Factsheet: deferrals, suspensions and cancellations, provides a range of scenarios and then explains how the rules of MD111 and indicative allocations apply in each scenario.
One consistent rule across the three is that if a student has not undertaken any study and the Confirmation of Enrolment (CoE) is deferred, suspended or cancelled then that CoE will not/will no longer count as a NOSC.
The Factsheet is available here.
