And now its 'Tier-1 PSW' that might go !

UK Immigration Ministry, as a major drive to keep limits on immigration has now decided to close the Tier-1 PSW as well. Reason for the same is that more students using this criteria are doing lower-than-degree level courses and are not so-highly-skilled as they should be.

Now, its upto the schools to sit down and decide whether its the right decision.

Scrapping the PSW will mean disaster to me, and to the other students from outside EU who want to work in the UK post MBA. I hope, (against any hope), that the PSW gets changed to allow post-graduates to work, which will include us :)

In extreme cases, will have to go back to India, which might not be that bad. I believe whatever happens happens for good. Will keep my fiingers crossed though..
