West Highland College & The University of the Highlands and Islands (UHI), The University of the Highlands and Islands Development Trust and Academic Partners are registered under the Data Protection Act 2018 (DPA). The personal data that you supply is held and processed by West Highland College & UHI and/or the academic partner(s) which constitute the University of the Highlands and Islands (UHI). By agreeing to this declaration you consent to these bodies holding and processing your personal data for the purposes of complying with the statutory obligation to provide information to a number of official agencies, as well as for their own administrative, business and research activities, the publication of graduation lists and in order to communicate with and provide services to UHI alumni. Where required, your information may be supplied to other official agencies e.g. Higher Education Statistics Agency (HESA), Universities and Colleges Admissions Service (UCAS), Student Awards Agency Scotland (SAAS) and the Student Loans Company (SLC). We may also share information with Skills Development Scotland, should you leave your course prior to completion, to enable them to offer advice and support should you wish, as well as to allow them to conduct research and analysis into student destinations.

Your personal data will also be used for the purposes of providing references, if we are asked to so do, and information on your progress may be disclosed to an organisation providing you with financial support (e.g. your employer), unless you advise us otherwise in writing addressed to the data controller. We may also provide confirmation of your student status to your local authority for the purposes of Council Tax relief, and to the Department for Work and Pensions. Details of your name, award and enrolling and/or host academic partner may be published in graduation lists (including lists supplied to the media) unless you advise us otherwise in writing addressed to the data controller. By signing this declaration you agree to the processing of your personal data as described above. You also confirm that, as far as you are aware, the enrolment particulars are correct and that you have read and agree to abide by the regulations of the college and/or UHI as supplied to you. Failure to comply with regulations may result in disciplinary action and ultimately possible exclusion from your studies. West Highland College & UHI are entitled to suspend or expel a student from a course, where it is considered that you pose a risk to the welfare of staff and/or other students. You also agree to accept responsibility for fees due if someone who has undertaken to pay them on your behalf fails to do so.

By enrolling as a West Highland College or UHI student, you agree that any award for which you study may be awarded by West Highland College, UHI or by another awarding body, at the sole discretion of West Highland College or UHI.
