any requirement for recognition in rule 17(2) is not met;
the Majlis is satisfied that the application or any document given in support of the application contains information that is false or misleading in a material particular, or there is a material omission from such application or document; or
the Majlis is of the view that it is against the public interest or the interests of students to recognise the applicant.
