Does anyone know what courses are eligble under the SEGS scheme?? I am a Computer Science graduate and i'm scared my course is not eligble. Please let me know if you know the answer (or have any idea at all)!! Many thanks in advance.

I think its still not been finalised/published. Here is an email from a university careers office:

This is a brand new initiative set up by the Home Office and is not due to
be implemented until the end of October 2004 (date to be confirmed). The
Home Office have released only some of the overall information about the
scheme and we are still waiting for confirmation of the application
procedure etc.

Unfortunately, this does mean that at this stage we are not able to advise
any further about this scheme until we have received further clarification
from the Home Office. We are currently in the process of arranging all of
the HESA codes for our courses and matching them to the list
provided by the Home Office in order that we can provide everyone with a
full list of which courses at xxx will be eligible under this
scheme. However, if computer science courses are not even listed, it is
unlikely that they will be included. Until we have collated the list of HESA
codes we just don't know which courses are eligible.

Please can we ask you to be patient until we have all of the information we
need in able to be able to advise you properly. I appreciate that you need
this information as soon as possible, therefore your email will be kept on
record and as soon as I can provide further information about which courses
are eligible and further details, I will send it to you by return mail.

I am sorry that I cannot be of more assistance at this stage.

Kawasaki, many thanks for the post. Sheds some light on the question. As I thought it's unlikely to be included

Kayalami I saw that post before and the official segs page. It doesn't have any info related to my question.

Thanks for the replies.. and please post any news!
