Genuine students stranded

[Jbro]

Hi,

I'm journalist doing research on genuine students that have been left stranded because the institutions they applied to, which had been accredited when they applied, lost its accreditation and subsequently closed.

I know this happened a lot before the governemnt clamped down on a lot of these bogus colleges. But are there still cases of genuine students being caught in the cross-fire?

For example, are there any Cambridge College of Learning students that had paid up for one of their bona fide courses (not the post graduates) but suffered because the college closed after parts of it were found to be fraudulent?

I need case studies of genuine students wronged by the system. If you can leave a message here or PM with your stories that would be great!

Cheers

Hi,

My name is Jamil Hussein and I'm a student journalist. I'm just doing research on this issue for a potential pitch i have to write for a documentary - hence i need case studies of genuine students that just caught up.

That East London isn't my article by the way. I found out about the story from that article.

Cheers

Also...

What happens to genuine students that find their college lose accreditation and/or close? Are they compensated in any way?

When Cambridge College of Learning shut down, the Home Office accepted that there were other bona fide courses being offered there and genuine students. What happened to them after the college closed? Did they get any help?

As a matter of fact, there are very few genuine students( out here. I have noticed / met students who come here just to work NOT to study.
So, UKBA has made many chages in nthe Tier4 to curb these kind of approach by the foreign students.
