Change in visa rules could see more Indian students heading to UK

After the UK relaxed immigration regulations from 11 January, it is estimated that more Indian students will enter Britain to pursue higher education. But some people state that the UK needs to amend its policy much more to attract more international students.

The number of Indian students applying to universities in Britain is said to have declined in the last few years after the country’s government adopted strict visa rules.

According to the British Council, the number of international students entering the country dropped by 10 percent. Until 2017, overseas students had to exit from the country as soon as they completed their courses and needed to apply for work visas if they wanted to be employed there.

În timp ce alte țări oferă programe de master pentru doi ani, Marea Britanie le oferă doar pentru un an. Studenții trebuie să obțină vizele de nivel 2 pentru a studia în Marea Britanie. Dacă doresc să obțină vize de muncă, vize de nivel 4, trebuie să fi absolvit un program de master.

The Hindu is quoted as saying that the number of students who entered the UK from India in 2017 was 18,015, making up for 3.6 percent of the total international students in the European country.

În ultimii ani, Marea Britanie și-a pierdut strălucirea, deoarece numărul studenților din India a început să prefere Australia și Canada, care oferă studenților mai multă libertate după terminarea studiilor.
