I'm sorry I can't help with the Abu Dhabi review team's details, but I would like to tell you this happened to my wife recently in Oman. The uni has her on a full PhD studentship, paying for everything and STILL they failed to notice that on the letter.
Actually what happened was that when my wife went into the embassy to collect, and she saw they'd rejected it on false grounds, she mentioned it to the lady at reception who apparently forwarded the info on to the EC Officer who'd made the mistake.
It turned out okay eventually -- the Entry Clearance Officer who dealt with the case got in touch with her by telephone because if they make mistakes and it comes up in Administrative Review, they will be in big shit with their supervisor, she admitted as much to my wife.
Still missed the start of her course and all, it took them 3-4 weeks to sort this mess out. It's also pushed my visa application out. What a mess.
