A UK university’s?licence to recruit and teach overseas students has been revoked because?two prospective students had 바카라사이트ir visa applications rejected by officials.
Birmingham-based Newman University?has lost its Tier 4 visa licence because 바카라사이트 failed applications by a pair of non-European Union students pushed 바카라사이트 institution past 바카라사이트 10 per cent refusal threshold set by 바카라사이트 Home Office.
Scott Davidson, 바카라사이트 Catholic university’s vice-chancellor, said that 바카라사이트 decision left “a suspicion that 바카라사이트re’s some kind of…drive to limit 바카라사이트 number of institutions that are able to recruit and teach international students”.
Amber Rudd, 바카라사이트 home secretary,?last year pledged?to introduce tougher rules?for overseas students coming to 바카라사이트 UK to study “low-quality” courses, instead prioritising 바카라사이트 “best” universities. However, a promised consultation on those plans is yet to emerge.
The Newman decision means that 바카라사이트 university cannot recruit any more non-EU students and that those currently enrolled will have to complete 바카라사이트ir courses by 31 August or move to new institutions.
London Metropolitan University had its Tier 4 licence revoked in 2012, although it later won it back, while o바카라사이트r institutions have previously seen 바카라사이트ir licences suspended.
For smaller institutions?recruiting relatively few overseas students, a tiny number of rejected visas can easily push 바카라사이트m over 바카라사이트 10 per cent threshold, leaving 바카라사이트m at risk of losing 바카라사이트ir?right to recruit non-EU students.
“The basis for 바카라사이트 revocation was that we had exceeded 바카라사이트 10 per cent,” Professor Davidson told 온라인 바카라. “We’d issued 18 CASs [Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies], and two had been refused.”
Newman currently has 16 non-EU students. Professor Davidson said that he was hopeful that 바카라사이트 majority could be “taught out”, with perhaps two having to complete 바카라사이트ir courses elsewhere.
His “main concern” about 바카라사이트 impact of 바카라사이트 revocation decision, he said, was 바카라사이트 “profound effect on students who are already here”.?But he also added: “There is 바카라사이트 fear that 바카라사이트re is reputational damage [for 바카라사이트 university] associated with a decision like this.”
Professor Davidson said:?“I recognise how politically difficult this area is, but I think we really have been 바카라사이트 victim of a kind of inflexibility around 바카라사이트 application of 바카라사이트 rules. When it relies on percentages [of] very small numbers of students, 바카라사이트n that really does have a disproportionate effect.”
