the schedule under paragraph 3.25.10 is on or before the earliest enrolment date for the unit of study as determined by OUA; and

        d) OUA must publish the schedule of tuition fees for a particular period on OUA's website by the date set out for delivery to the Minister in paragraph 3.25.15(c) above.

      However, if it is the case that the Higher Education Provider Guidelines stipulate dates for higher education providers to deliver equivalent schedules, and where the dates stipulated by the Higher Education Provider Guidelines differ from the dates stated in paragraph 3.25.15(c) above, then the dates stipulated by the Higher Education Guidelines shall be the dates by which OUA should deliver schedules for the purposes of paragraph 3.25.15 of these Guidelines.

      3.25.20

        a) For the purpose of paragraph 104-4(2A)(a) of the Act, OUA may only vary a published tuition fee if the variation occurs prior to the published census date for the unit of study, and:

           i) the variation does not disadvantage a student enrolled, or a person seeking to enrol; and

           ii) the variation is necessary to correct the published tuition fee due to administrative error or circumstances that did not apply at the time the student contribution amount or tuition fee was determined.

        b) Without limiting the generality of paragraph 3.25.20(a)(i) of these Guidelines, a student will be disadvantaged by a variation that increases the tuition fee.

        However, if it is the case that the dates and circumstances stipulated by the Higher Education Provider Guidelines for the variation of tuition fees by higher education providers differ from the dates and circumstances stipulated by (a) and (b) above in any manner, then the dates and circumstances stipulated by the Higher Education Provider Guidelines shall apply for the purposes of paragraph 3.25.20 of these Guidelines.

       3.25.25 If OUA varies a tuition fee in accordance with subsection 104-4(2A) of the Act, OUA must:

           a) withdraw any previous schedule given under paragraph 3.25.10 or this paragraph of these Guidelines which contains the tuition fee subject to variation; and

           b) inform the Minister of the variation; and

           c) give the Minister a replacement schedule incorporating the variation by publishing the replacement schedule on OUA's website as soon as practicable after making that decision.

      3.30 ADMINISTRATIVE REQUIREMENTS
