Despite paragraph (1C), a scholarship, bursary or award under these Regulations may be awarded to a pupil based on information received by the Ministry after the cut‑off date for that scholarship, bursary or award, if the information was not received by the Ministry on or before the cut‑off date due to an error or omission by the educational institution in which the pupil is enrolled or the Ministry.
