英国政府的学生签证新政策，这代表留学生的转机?

2017-06-16 作者： 19阅读

脱欧后，内外交困，始料不及，留学生对于英国高等教育的重要性，相信她不能再视而不见。现作为执政党党魁，大权在握，调整政策和立场，也情有可原，故出台相应政策，以吸引更多国际学生赴英求学，也并非匪夷所思，当然前提是为吸引优秀的国际学生。

果不其然，25日最新发布的 Tier 4 学生签证相关的政策指导文件中新设立以剑桥大学，牛津大学，巴斯大学，帝国理工4个学校为试点的学生签证新政。该签证政策的试运行主要目的是通过简化国际学生研究生签证的申请流程，延长毕业后留英时间的方法，向国际学生示好，传递英国对优秀国际学生持欢迎态度的良好讯息。

具体政策概要

无论在英国境内或境外申请以上4所大学的硕士课程，且课程周期不超过13个月(不含语言课程)，毕业后留英时间从原来的4个月延长至6个月。

以上学生不再要求必须提供资金或学历证明文件，简化签证申请材料和流程。

政策原文：

Annex 6 Tier 4 Pilot

If you are applying to study a Masters course for 13 months or less (excluding the duration of any pre-sessional course) at the University of Oxford, University of Cambridge, University of Bath or Imperial College London, you are eligible to participate in the Tier 4 pilot. This includes if you are applying from both outside and inside the UK.

Participating in the pilot allows you to: - stay longer after the end of the course - the total length of stay you are allowed is the full length of the course plus six months after the end of the course; - submit fewer evidential documents with your application – you will not be required to submit certificates or documents showing your previous qualifications or transcript of results and documents showing you meet the maintenance requirements.

In all cases you must confirm on your application form that you meet the requirements and that you hold documentary evidence in the manner required. We may request these from you even where you qualify for the pilot. The Immigration Rules still apply to you, therore you must ensure you follow the rest of the guidance carully. This includes submitting an ATAS certificate and TB screening certificate where appropriate.

If you do choose to submit documentary evidence, despite being eligible for the pilot, we will consider that information as part of the overall assessment.

If you are bringing dependants with you and they apply at the same time as you, they will also not be required to submit documents showing they meet the maintenance requirements. If they don’t apply at the same time they will need to submit supporting documentation with their application.

If you have any concerns, speak to your University visa office in the first instance.

看到这个政策仅以4所大学试运行，不禁慨叹英国骨子里的傲慢与偏见是对这条政策的最好诠释。不知道，这个政策是出自哪位智囊的‘高见’。Anyway, 毕竟英国移民局已经意识到与‘人 (Xue) 民 (Sheng) 为敌’ 只能死路一条，故斗胆预测英国政府将陆续出台更接地气的政策以鼓励国际学生赴英留学。

以上就是小编为大家介绍的英国新政府带来的学生签证政策，相信同学么听到这个消息的时候也应该很激动吧，小编相信这只是第一步，以后还会陆续有一些利于留学的政策的。了解更多的心资讯，请关注。
