With regard to adjacent and non-adjacent grants, I spoke to a student who felt the grant awarded was not correct. When she contacted SUSI to point this out she was informed she had to appeal the decision. She was never told about the review option. The witnesses should examine this because students are being told they must appeal decisions rather than have them reviewed. Perhaps there is miscommunication which could be rectified very quickly.
