    "content": "The other mechanism that has been placed to ensure that the very needy students are not disadvantaged is the appeals mechanism. It allows students to get into the appeals portal. If their circumstances have changed, they put in the new information and then they are re- categorised. This is because we acknowledge that financial circumstances of students and parents change. Therefore, once they change, the student banding also changes. For example, if a parent loses a job, the student goes into the portal and indicates that although his father or mother was working last year, they are not working this year, and he does not have the income he had last year. So, it has shifted. Therefore, their circumstances have changed. We have also noted and acknowledged that internet access and connectivity has various disadvantages to various students. Students who come from poor backgrounds may not have access to the internet. To cure this, we have set up desks in each and every university from the university funding team, so that the students can be assisted to put in their data in the universities where they have been admitted to, so that they are not disadvantaged."
