Overseas students — jobs and the law

Abstract

Each year large numbers of students from overseas countries arrive in the UK intent on pursuing a course of education which will provide them with a professional qualification, degree, or national award. The estimated number of overseas students in the UK is 80,000, and they represent a sizeable part of the community. The overseas student is usually older than his UK counterpart and is often more dedicated to his studies, as he has an obligation to his country or his family to obtain his qualifications in the shortest possible time and at the minimum of expense.
