We review how long we keep personal information on a regular basis. We are legally required to hold some types of information to fulfil our statutory obligations. We hold your personal information on our systems for only as long as is necessary for the relevant activity, or as long as is set out in any relevant contract or agreement you hold with us.

If you enrol on a programme of study, your application information will become part of your student records, which will be held for the duration of your study.  A permanent record of your qualification and individual exam passes will be retained indefinitely.
