We appreciate the wish for international students to be offered the same opportunities as UK and EU students, and this programme helps to bridge the gap by making a degree course available to those who are academically able, but financially not so well off. The iam offers a range of qualifications from an introduction to a full BA (Honours) Degree. The iam’s programmes are designed both to stand alone and to fit together logically. There is a clear link between each level, meaning students can build on their prior learning. The qualifications fit into the NVQ framework as follows:1. Certificate in Administrative Management – Level 32. Diploma in Administrative Management – Level 4 First Year/ BA (Hons) Business Management3. Advanced Diploma in Administrative Management – Level 5 Second Year/ BA (Hons) Business Management4. Degree programme – Level 6 Third Year/ BA (Hons) Business Management

Immigration Rules for International Students - latest PBS and UKBA news

Foreign students hoping to come to the UK to study will have to meet strict new criteria, the Government.

The Home Office has published proposals for much tighter rules for foreign students - and the universities and colleges hosting them - under tier 4 of its new Points Based System.

All colleges and universities that want to recruit foreign students will now need a license 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 enroll. The new rules set stricter limits on courses involving work placements to ensure these are not used as a route for disguised employment and limit the amount of time those coming to the UK to study as adults can spend on low level courses. Students will also face stringent new criteria if they want to study in the UK, ensuring only those who benefit Britain can come. An applicant is recommended to use the self-assessment tool on the ukba website before making his/her application. This will give the applicant an indication of whether he/she will meet the points criteria. Under Tier 4 an applicant must score: 30 points for a valid visa letter (after Autumn 2009 this letter will be known as a CAS Certificate of Acceptance of Studies), and 10 points for maintenance funds. Before they can study here, an international students must:

1- Supply a UKBA licensed education institution with all genuine copies of education certificates gained from age 11 onwards and where applicable work experience letters from employers. When the college is satisfied of the student's academic ability to finish the course, they will be in a position to issue a Visa letter and letter stating the documents seen to make this judgment.

2- Prove that they have the means to support themselves while studying here.
For courses of more than 9 months; the amounts you need to show are £7200 for accommodation in London plus course fees, or £5400 for those living outside London plus course fees. Students must prove this by producing bank statements with the amount available in the account for at least 28 days.
For courses of 9 months or less; the amounts you need to show are £9600 for accommodation in London plus course fees, or £7200 for those living outside London plus course fees. Students must prove this by producing bank statements with the amount available in the account for at least 28 days.

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. The visa section may want to check the supporting documents a student sends with his/her application. Therefore, international students must ensure that all the evidence comes from a source that can be clearly identified and that it can be independently confirmed is being genuine.
Without a visa letter or (after Autumn 2009) 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.
