Students urged to heed new UK visa rules

  • Middle East: Wednesday, July 22 - 2009 at 10:36

The Cultural Attache to the Embassy of Kuwait in London, Dr. Fayez Al-Thifeeri, is cautioning students wanting to study in the UK to be aware of new amendments made by the UK government for issuing academic visas. The British Interior Ministry has replaced all academic admission notes with a Confirmation of Acceptance of Studies, he noted, adding that the new document encompasses all academic data of the student. He also urged students and their parents, both those on government scholarships or studying at their own expense, to 'prudently and soundly' choose the academic institution they want to join due to 'strict' legal procedures required to change majors or schools. He also warned students not to leave the country without notifying the school, as such a move could lead to more security restrictions should the student wish to reÜenter the U.K. again.
