is an EU national other than a United Kingdom national on the first day of the first academic year of the course;

b

is ordinarily resident in Wales on the first day of the first academic year of the course;

c

has been ordinarily resident in the United Kingdom and Islands throughout the three-year period immediately preceding the first day of the first academic year of the course; and

Where a state accedes to the European Union after the first day of the first academic year of the course and a person is a national of that state, the requirement in paragraph (a) of sub-paragraph (1) to be an EU national other than a United Kingdom national on the first day of the first academic year of the course is treated as being satisfied.
