Home Office refused saying''' LCPS has never issued or offered Legitimate Post Graduate Diploma in Management'''
Which is baseless and unfair as LCPS actually offered and issued PGD in Management studies after completion of course.
Home Office has accused me of deception with no right to appeal nor administrative review.
Home Office asked me to leave Uk by 31 Dec 2009 as my cuurent student visa expires on this date.
Need Urgent help.
Please try to understand and guide me this hard time.

To my knowledge, the bogus colleges have been removed from the listed bodies.I guess HO did a mistake.You should contact with your college without delay.Good luck.

Tier 1 (Post-Study Work) of the Points Based System - Policy Guidance

No 51 The requirements for the award of points for initial applicants under Tier 1 (Post-Study Work) are:
sub-section 2 says:
The applicant studied for the eligible award at a United Kingdom institution that is a United Kingdom recognised or
listed body, or holds a sponsor licence under Tier 4 of the points based system.
3 classifications has been made.
1. Recognized bodies.
2. Listed Bodies
3. Bodies with PBS 4 sponsor License.
If at time of application, that the college is in the list, then there is a case. no right of appeal does not mean you cannot open a case. consult an immigration adviser. because I think
YOU ACTED ON A GOOD FAITH, at time of your study and application, they are there, so their PGDip must count that's what the guidance say at that time.
But I think maybe the College abused their PgDip because of the little hole by awarding it without studies,
Because during the first launch of PSW, many colleges started offering PGDip courses in anything, and the fee becomes high as in the University, and many students dived to this hole.
I have seen a case where HO has identified many of these PGDips and have tried to assessed/interview some of the students and they fail to meet up the standard of a student who hold PGDip.
which means, some are being awarded on mutual agreement between the college administrator and the student, if you can pay money.
