The Court therefore concluded that:

31. In our judgment the meaning of rule 60(v) is that a student who wants an extension of stay must be able to produce evidence of satisfactory progress, whether on the course named in his application for entry clearance or on another recognised course which he or she has undertaken. A failure to sit or to pass relevant examinations will always be material to the evaluation of the student's progress, but whether it is decisive will depend on the reason for it. If the reason is not inconsistent with satisfactory progress, rule 60(v) is satisfied.

Great link. i got solution of many issues regrading subject selection.
It's better to think through potential scenarios before they happen. And, pay attention to your gut instinct or intuition. In most cases, if you have a question or a lingering hesitation, it's best to check it out to avoid later pain and damage - whether to you, your reputation, the student, or the institution.

Hi guys,

I'm planning to have my Master's Degree in UK. It doesn't matter what program so long as it is related to Information Technology - Management Information System. I really don't know where to start, on what institutions to choose from, or maybe some sponsorship where i can apply. Should you guys have something to suggest, please leave your comment here. Thanks.

Yes student can change the course with the consent of the college you can change course.
