Another great country to consider if you want to stay back after your study is the UK. Here are a few key things to note:

1. Int'l students with valid study visa enrolled in a recognized school from Sept 2020 are eligible for the new graduate route (post study work visa- PSW)

2. Bachelors & masters graduates are eligible for 2 & 3yrs PSW respectively

3. Int'l graduates from UK schools do not need to have job offers or an endorsement by your university to apply for the UK PSW after graduation.

4. With the PSW,you can apply for any type of job while awaiting a job that can sponsor you for a general work visa.

5. Those looking to stay longer in the UK after the expiration of their PSW will need to apply to a skilled work visa or general work visa.

6. To get a , the candidate must be getting at least £30,000 per year, for some jobs, this can be higher or lower.

7. Students with expired student permission but with a valid exceptional assurance will be able to switch to the UK graduate route

8. Students who started distance learning for a 12 months course or more should be in UK by April 2022 to be eligible for the graduate route.

9. Prospective UK students should target courses that will launch them into occupations that are in demand in the UK especially if you

are looking to land an employer in the UK who will be willing to sponsor you for a general work visa prior or immediately after the expiration of your PSW.
