Brief
From October 2013, PhD students who are writing up their thesis are not registered as full time students. They are no longer required to be resident in Aberystwyth or to study on a full-time basis and many will go into full-time employment while completing their thesis. The University does not, therefore, provide automatic excemtion from Council Tax to full-time PhD students after their registration period ends. Instead, they will be liable to pay Council Tax depending on the amount of time they spend on their thesis.
