SNP: possible reintroduce of post-study work visas (PSW) in UK

Good news for International  students who would like to study in Britain. The winning party of British politics, the SNP (Scottish National Party) tsunami would bring a great cheer among Indian and Pakistani  students who would like to study in the UK.

According to the SNP party, South Asia Region  is a priority region and the party’s main agenda is to get Asian students back to Scottish university campuses.

The party has clearly announced the re-launch of post study, work visa for Asian students as a priority by allowing them to work at least for a period of two years after completing their studies in Scotland.

The SNP said that universities in Scotland experienced a considerable, increasing decline in the registration of students from key overseas markets. Thus, it feels that the existing four months time given to overseas students at the end of their studies is inadequate to find employment and to transfer to a Tier 2 visa.

Therefore, the UK would seek to re-launch the post study, work visa so that international students can seek a job and make a contribution to the country’s economy. This move would assist international students to Scotland, who add vast benefit to the culture as well as academic life of Scottish universities, but also donate economically through their fees as well as spending in local economies.
