Yip! Sad I know!

I had asked for the new PBS tiers 2, 4 & 5 to have separate forums. I thought tier 4 was going to be the one with the most traffic. How wrong was I? But then again I did not know about the bogus colleges and the PGD scams....

Uk will be the least preference for Intl Students. With more controls and less oppertunities , students will think twice before they even visit British high commission.
Downturn for Uk universities.

Better to have stronger controls matched with students that can really afford the UK education the world craves.

The alternative is to carry on accepting the systemic abuse and watch the UK become a third country educational nation because the qualifications are not worth the paper they are written on.

The UK will "lose" thousands of students but in real terms those are the students we can afford to lose. Those are the ones that come to work rather than study and cost our economy far more than we ever gain.
