- are aged 18 years or older on 1 January in the year of study
- a full-time student (600+ hours per year) enrolled at an education facility recognised by the Department for Education, Children and Young People.
- are studying at a level that is no higher than is offered to any year 11 or 12 student at a senior secondary college, and
- have not had the opportunity to complete the equivalent of two years post-year 10 study due to circumstances beyond their control.
