Well have spent the last 15 minutes or so reading through the Guidelines, it would appear to me that in order to get home fees status a Swiss student would have to meet the following criteria:

- Have at least one parent who is a Swiss national

- Have lived in Switzerland for the 3 years prior to the start date of your first term in college

- And for the three years mentioned above your main purpose of being in Switzerland was not for full time education, or it was, then you must have been resident in Switzerland immediately before that period.

If you meet all the above then you would qualify as Category 7 for home fees and that is the only way a Swiss with not no other connection to the UK can get home fees.

my 2c,
