Information for Students

Data protection information for prospective, current and former students

We collect and retain certain personal data about:

  • prospective students
  • current students
  • former students

so that we can carry out our functions as an education provider. We also have to share some of this personal data with external, third party organisations, such as HESA.

HESA - Student Collection Notice

Newcastle University is required to send some of the data it holds about you to the Higher Education Statistics Agency (HESA). For more information on the data that is shared with HESA, and what they will use it for, see the Collection Notices on HESA's website.
