10 February 2010
Foreign students from outside Europe wanting to come to the UK to study will be required to meet stricter entry criteria, the Home Secretary, Alan Johnson announced today.
The new regulations will ensure that students studying below degree level have a limited ability to work in the UK and that their dependants cannot work here at all.
You can find out more about the new measures on the UK Border Agency website (new window).
