of these Guidelines.

      3.30.30 OUA must publish the census date(s) and EFTSL value(s) for each unit of study to which access is provided by OUA during a period by posting it on OUA's website on or before the earliest enrolment date for the units of study as determined by OUA.

      However if it is the case that the dates stipulated by the Administration Guidelines for the publishing of census dates and EFTSL values by higher education providers differ from the dates stated above, then the dates stipulated by the Administration Guidelines shall be the governing dates for paragraph 3.30.30 of these Guidelines.

     3.30.35 Once OUA has published the census date and EFTSL value for a unit of study under paragraph 3.30.30 of these Guidelines, OUA may only vary that census date or EFTSL value if the variation occurs before the day of the published census date; and

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

           b) the variation is necessary to correct the published census date or EFTSL value due to administrative error or circumstances that did not apply at the time the census date or EFTSL value was determined.

     However, if it is the case that the dates and circumstances stipulated by the Administration Guidelines for the variation of census dates and EFTSL values by higher education providers without written ministerial approval differ from the dates and circumstances stipulated above in any manner, then the dates and circumstances stipulated by the Administration Guidelines shall apply for the purposes of paragraph 3.30.35 of these Guidelines.

     3.30.36 Without limiting the generality of paragraph 3.30.35(a) of these Guidelines, a student or person will be disadvantaged by a variation that:

    a) reduces the published EFTSL value for a unit of study; or

    b) brings the published census date for a unit of study forward in time.

     3.30.37 a) If OUA varies a published census date or published EFTSL value under paragraph 104‑4(5A)(a) of the Act, OUA must publish the varied census date or EFTSL value on OUA's website as soon as practicable after making that decision.

     b) If OUA varies a published census date under paragraph 104‑4(5A)(b) of the Act, OUA must publish the variation by the date, and in the manner, specified by the Minister in the approval.

     However, if it is the case that the date and circumstances stipulated by the Administration Guidelines for the publication of the varied census dates or EFTSL values differ from the date and circumstance stipulated above in any manner, then the conditions and dates stipulated by the Administration Guidelines shall apply for the purposes of paragraph 3.30.37 of these Guidelines.
