Foreign students can now work in the uk after graduation boris johnson
I think there may be some misinformation here!
While it's true that the UK has made some changes to its immigration rules, foreign students are not automatically allowed to work in the UK after graduation.
However, the UK government has introduced a new post-study work visa route, which allows international students to stay in the UK for up to 2 years after graduating from a UK university to work or look for work. This route is part of the UK's points-based immigration system, and it's designed to attract top talent to the UK.
To be eligible for the post-study work visa, students must:
- Have completed a degree-level course at a UK university (including a master's or PhD).
- Have been awarded a degree that is recognized by the UK government.
- Have a job offer in the UK, or be able to demonstrate that they have the necessary funds to support themselves while looking for work.
- Meet the English language requirements.
- Meet the points-based assessment criteria, which includes factors such as the student's qualifications, language skills, and work experience.
It's worth noting that this new visa route is not automatic, and students will need to apply for it separately. The application process typically involves submitting a visa application, providing supporting documents, and paying the relevant fees.
So, while foreign students are not automatically allowed to work in the UK after graduation, the new post-study work visa route provides an opportunity for them to stay in the UK and gain work experience after completing their studies.
