does that mean if it doesnt say anything about that stupid 3 yr rule on the website of the uni then they cant charge me international fees? do they have to put it on their website or can they just mention it when it comes to accepting an offer?
thanks so much for your help!

Yes, it really doesn sound like you'd not have a problem...just be prepared for some wrangling if the LEA gets involved.
Why would you prefer to study at a UK uni...apart from the partner not speaking German. I always thought German uni's offered far better degrees...and less drinking and getting beaten-up/mugged outside the pub afterwards!

Talking of LEA's, we had one uni which offered local fees for my son, but said they couldn't guarantee that the LEA (which seems to be run by the local Council) wouldn't overide their decision. Can they? How does it all work now - who actually gets the final say?

Essex County Council would not pay for my daughter's tuition fees, despite us (still) having a house there; we went on an expat posting to Singapore when she was aged 10 and she returned to England to go to boarding school in Oxford from the age of 16 to take 'A' levels. Essex CC said that she lived in Oxford and it was their jurisdiction...

I thought your kids were born in Australia? That's amazing if you do get it for them, I would be annoyed to pay foreign rates for mine if I knew that was the case.
