Strict new rules for foreign students

30 July 2008
Foreign students hoping to come to the UK to study will have to meet strict new criteria, the Government announced today.
The Home Office has published proposals for much tighter rules for foreign students - and the universities and colleges hosting them - under the student tier of its new Points Based System.
All colleges and universities that want to recruit foreign students will now need a licence to do so and will have to take greater responsibility for their international students, helping Government crack down on bogus colleges who abuse the system. For the first time education providers face a ban on bringing over international students if they fail to follow strict new rules - including alerting the UK Border Agency (UKBA) if students fail to enrol.
Students will also face stringent new criteria if they want to study in the UK, ensuring only those who benefit Britain can come. Before they can study here, foreign students must:
-Be sponsored by a UKBA-licensed education institution;
-Prove that they have the means *****pport themselves and their families while studying here; and
-Supply their fingerprints.
Stricter rules on work placements for students will also ensure that the UK''s labour market is protected.
Border and Immigration Minister Liam Byrne said:
"All those who come to Britain must play by the rules. It is right that foreign students wanting to take advantage of our world-class universities and colleges must meet strict criteria.
"By locking people to one identity with ID cards, alongside a tough new sponsorship system, we will know exactly who is coming here to study and crack down on bogus colleges."
Visas will only be granted to students who show a proven track record in education and are applying for a course that meets a minimum level of qualification. They must also be able to demonstrate they can financially support themselves and any of their dependants.
Students on courses for longer than 12 months will have to show they have sufficient funds to pay their first year of fees, plus £9,600 to cover their first year in the UK. Students wishing to bring their dependants with them will need to show they have a further £535 per month for each person they bring.
Each year, international students contribute £2.5 billion to the UK economy in tuition fees alone and an overall estimated contribution of £8.5 billion. In recognition of the many economic and cultural benefits that these students bring to the UK, earlier this year the Government announced a special visa category allowing successful international students who have graduated from a British university to work in the UK for up to two years.
Higher Education Minister Bill Rammell said:
"I welcome the education sector''s involvement in developing a structure that allows international students to benefit from the excellent educational experience the UK offers, while giving them the opportunity to work in the UK for two years following graduation.
"However, I will not tolerate the minority of individuals who seek to damage the quality of our education system through bogus colleges. This is why we have introduced tighter checks to the current Register of Education and Training Providers. The new system will toughen this process further and give extra protection from the damage bogus colleges can cause."
Under the new system education providers who want to teach foreign nationals must be granted a licence by the UKBA, they can then sponsor students to come to the UK.
Without a confirmation of acceptance for studies issued to them by their sponsoring institution a student''s visa application will not be considered. It also acts as a pledge from the college or university that they accept responsibility for the student while they are in the UK.
Universities and colleges face losing their licence if they fail to:
-Keep copies of all their foreign students'' passports;
-Keep and update their students'' contact details;
-Alert the UKBA to any students who fail to enrol on their course;
-Report unauthorised absences to the UKBA; and
-Inform the UKBA if any student stops their studies.
The sponsorship register for colleges and universities opened for applications this week.

Thực ra cái luật mới này để hạn chế cái bọn Nam Á với châu Phi là chính, cái bọn mà toàn sang UK nhờ mấy cái trường ngoại ngữ đểu rồi bỏ ra ngoài đi làm công việc chân tay. SV VN sang UK đều theo các trường được công nhận ở UK cả, luật mới có tác động gì đâu.

http://ukinvietnam.fco.gov.uk/en/working-with-vietnam/chevening-scholarship-scheme/
Chevening Scholarships, funded by the UK Foreign and Commonwealth Office, are prestigious scholarships that enable graduates and young professionals from Vietnam to pursue postgraduate studies in the UK and gain new expertise for the benefit of their own country.
The British Embassy is now inviting applications for the 2009 - 10 academic year.
What kind of courses can be studied under a Chevening Scholarship?
Most scholarships are awarded for one year postgraduate degree courses, but applications are also welcome from candidates who wish to study a short course (lasting at least 3 months). Preference will be given to courses that contribute to the UKõ?Ts global foreign policy objectives.
Examples of suitable courses include:
Economics
Law/Criminal Justice Studies
Political Science
Human Rights/Democracy
Development Studies
Journalism
Public Administration
Finance & Banking
International Security
Business Studies
International Relations
Environmental Studies/Engineering
This list is by no means exhaustive and applications for scholarships in other subjects will be considered.
If candidates wish to study on a course for which academic fees exceed Ê10,000 per year, then they should expect to part-fund their study.
What costs are covered by a Chevening Scholarship?
A full scholarship will cover: costs of a medical check required for a UK visa, a return air ticket to the UK, all tuition fees (not exceeding Ê10,000 per year), and a monthly stipend and allowances.
We will offer both full scholarships and partial scholarships. Candidates who are not successful in gaining a full scholarship may be offered a partial scholarship, to which they will have to make their own contribution (from personal funds or other scholarship awards). Candidates are asked to indicate on their application form whether they would be interested in a partial scholarship and, if so, to tell us the level of personal contribution they can make (up to a maximum of Ê8,500). A partial scholarship will cover only part of the costs listed above.
Which universities can Chevening candidates apply to?
There is no restriction on which UK university a candidate can apply to.
Important note: Candidates are strongly advised to secure a confirmed place at a British University before interview. Those invited to interview will be asked to give strong reasons for their final choice of university and subject of study.
Candidates should study the prospectuses of UK universities (available at the British Council Information Centres in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City) and start applying for places on courses immediately - even before submitting their Chevening application. The British Council can assist applicants in finding information about British universities.
Who can apply?
We encourage applications from all provinces of Vietnam, from the private sector as well as from government and NGOs.
Candidates applying for courses that contribute to UK foreign policy objectives (as listed above) will be at an advantage.
Candidates should have a good academic record. Only candidates with an õ?oexcellentõ? (gioi or xuat sac) or õ?overy goodõ? (kha) first degree will be considered
Candidates should show potential to rise to a high level in their careers and to contribute to the wider development of Vietnam. Chevening Scholarships are not intended for those planning to follow a career solely in specialist research or the teaching profession.
Applicants should normally be aged between 25-35 years.
Candidates must already have a high standard of English in order to enable them to cope with post-graduate study in the UK. This means an IELTS (International English Language Testing System) score of at least 6.5 (TOEFL equivalent 600).
Having an uncon***ional offer from a UK university for the academic year of 2008-2009 will be an advantage.
Candidates must undertake to return to Vietnam once the course, or any reasonable extension of the course, has been completed.
Candidates will be selected strictly on merit against the above criteria and no other considerations will apply.
There are no quotas for candidates from any particular organisation. If a number of candidates apply from the same organisation, all or none of them could win an award. Likewise, there are no scholarships reserved for particular companies, government departments or organisations.
Application
Application forms are available at the British Council website or can be collected from the British Council offices in Hanoi or Ho Chi Minh City.
Candidates should complete the application forms in full. Incomplete forms will be rejected.
Part A of the form asks about family details. Please note that scholarships fund the costs of the award holder only. If candidates wish to take any members of their family to the UK, they must bear the cost themselves.
Part D of the form asks about the candidate''s choice of course and university. Candidates are strongly advised to secure a confirmed place at a British University before interview. Those invited to interview will be asked to give strong reasons for their final choice of university and subject of study.
Part F of the form asks for reasons for the candidate''s choice of course, how the candidate intends to õ?~make a differenceõ?T on return to Vietnam, and their leadership potential. These sections are particularly important and will be discussed during the interviews for those who are shortlisted. They should be completed as fully as possible within the 250-word limit for each section. Applications exceeding this word limit may be rejected.
The following papers should accompany complete application forms:
- copies of relevant academic certificates and transcripts, with certified English translations
- two (2) letters of reference (both of which should be professional or academic), with certified translations into English
- copies of IELTS or TOEFL report forms
- completed medical declaration form (this can be downloaded from the British Council website )
- a self-addressed envelope, if you wish to receive an acknowledgement of receipt of your application
- a copy of an offer letter from a British university (if available)
Completed applications should be sent to:
Ms Tran Thi Hong Gam
Education Development and Governance Manager
British Council
40 Cat Linh, Hanoi
Vietnam.
Selection procedure
The British Embassy and British Council will screen application forms and draw up a shortlist of candidates. Only shortlisted candidates will be contacted. Candidates who supplied self-addressed envelopes with the original application will only receive acknowledgement of receipt of their application.
Short-listed candidates will be invited for interview.
Further Information
Any queries about the selection process should be directed to Ms Tran Thi Hong Gam or Ms Le Thi An Giang (tel: (04) 8436780) at the British Council in Hanoi.
