According to comprehensive reports from Worldway Immigration: On July 22, the Ministry of Education issued the 2014 No. 1 Study Abroad Warning, stating that 3 universities and 57 private colleges in the UK have had their qualifications to recruit international students suspended. The Ministry of Education advises those planning to study in the UK to pay attention to this information.
According to information from the UK Home Office website, the Home Office announced on June 24 that it has suspended the Tier 4 visa sponsorship license for Glyndwr University; suspended the Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS) issuance rights for the University of West London and the University of Bedfordshire; and suspended the international student recruitment qualifications for 57 private colleges. The universities and colleges involved will be subject to investigation by government departments, and the institutions will have 20 days to appeal, with the Home Office requiring 20 days to review and make a final decision.
The UK Home Office also provided advice to international students: International students already in the UK will have their visas remain valid and may continue their studies in the UK without immediate impact; international students currently studying at the affected institutions may continue their studies normally while the institutions' recruitment qualifications are suspended; students who have received an offer from the affected institutions but have not yet departed for the UK are strongly advised not to travel until the recruitment qualifications are restored; and visa applications based on a Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies issued by the affected institutions will be temporarily suspended.
The Ministry of Education warns students planning to study in the UK, their parents, and self-funded study abroad agencies to pay attention to the above information to avoid any impact on their rights and interests.
