Study loan refused after poor academic results

ATA/392/1998Court of Justice / Administrative ChamberJun 23, 1998Dismissed

Open source

Extracted by Omnilex

Omnilex summary

The student, who had already benefited from prior assistance and had not completed any qualification despite studies in France and at the University of Geneva, challenged the refusal of a further study loan. The court confirmed the refusal, holding that his academic record and lack of completed training meant he no longer had a right to a loan under the applicable statute.

Omnilex headnote

Art. 28 al. 1 let. b LEE; study loans and academic progress: a student who has not completed any formation and whose academic record is unsatisfactory, after repeated changes of faculty and failed examinations, may be denied further loan assistance. The decisive criterion is whether the applicant has shown sufficient progress toward a qualification; prior aid does not create an entitlement to continued funding where the studies have not led to a completed degree or equivalent result.
