发布时间:2010-9-7 文字大小:  打印:打印此文
 近期英国大使馆学生签证(计点积分制第四层级)再次变革,英国边境管理局近日就英国学生签证(计点积分制第四层级)T4做出了一些调整,这次的签证制度调整是今年最大的一次,会对目前的签证要求进一步提高要求以减少后期获得签证的“伪学生”赴英打工的问题。具体来说,就是要提高学生的语言能力标准(欧洲语言框架标准B2),控制学生就读院校的信用级别和控制语言测试的水准。此外,对于目前就读国际文凭(IB)课程的学生办理签证也给予了特殊的照顾。

 自8月12日开始,英国各大院校自己的语言测试会被全面禁用,包括之前的华威英语测试,牛津英语测试等等均不可用于后期的签证申请。使馆明确接受的英语水平证明成绩有官方的雅思和托福,其他类型的英语水平测试目前还在确认中。威久留学作为英国使馆的常年的优良信誉的合作方,我们会在得到进一步的确认后将其他可接受的英语水平测试类型全面揭示。

有关英国学生签证的变化如下:

1、英语语言课程 Level of English language study

    自2010年7月23日起,计点积分制第四层级下学生可以申请的最低等级的英语语言课程将规定为欧洲语言框架标准B2的水平。

    例外的情况包括:由政府资助的语言学生以及就读学位课程前的预备语言课程的学生。

From 23 July 2010, the minimum level of English language course that will be permitted under Tier 4 will be level B2 of the Common European Framework of Reference.

The exemptions to the minimum level, which applied previously to government-sponsored language students and those undertaking a pre-sessional English language course before pursuing a degree course, remain in place.

2、学生申请变更就读院校 Students applying to change to a different education provider

    自2010年7月23日起,计点积分制第四层级下的在读学生在申请变更就读院校时,如果变更的院校是高信用级别的教育担保机构(HTS),申请者可以在申请变更签证的同时开始新的学业。当然,学生应意识到英国边境管理局将根据实际情况决定是否批准其签证申请。

    如果在读学生希望变更至A类或B类级别的教育担保机构的话,他们在英国边境管理局批准其签证申请前将不被允许开始新的学业。为避免耽误学生就读新的课程,我们将尽可能优先处理此类学生的签证申请。

From 23 July 2010, existing Tier 4 students who want to change to a sponsor with a Highly Trusted Sponsor (HTS) license will be able to begin their new course of study, at their own risk, while they are waiting for the UK Border Agency to make a decision on their application to change sponsor.

Students applying to change to an A- or B-rated sponsor are not permitted to begin their new course of study until they receive a positive decision from us on their application to change sponsor. To avoid unnecessary delays in beginning a course, we have put processes in place to prioritise applications made by students who want to change to A- or B-rated sponsors.

3、学生国际文凭课程证书 Students with International Baccalaureate qualifications

    我们了解到参加国际文凭(IB)课程的学生不能够在7月5日获得考试成绩单原件,同时也不能及时收到国际文凭证书以申请九月开始的大学课程。

    为了确保学生能够及时申请英国学生签证,我们同意接受未拿到国际文凭证书原件的学生提交的签证申请。

We are aware that students relying on International Baccalaureate qualifications awarded on 5 July 2010 will not be issued with a paper transcript giving their results, and will not receive their award certificates in time to apply for university courses starting in September this year.

To enable these students to apply under Tier 4, we have made provision to accept applications made by students relying on an International Baccalaureate qualification, but who have not received their original award certificate. Further information about this is available in our the current Tier 4 policy guidance.

4、安全语言测试 Secure English language tests

    英国政府将针对申请计点积分制第四层级(普通类)学习本科以下课程的成年学生实行强制性的安全英语语言测试. 这一新的要求将于2010年8月12日生效。

    该要求将针对所有计点积分制第四层级下低于学位课程的申请者,但不包括预科学位(foundation degree)课程(含苏格兰HND项目,但英格兰或威尔士的HND项目除外)及英语课程的学生申请者。详情请参见英国边境管理局网站UK Border Agency website (http://www.ukvisas.gov.uk/en/aboutus/newsroom/?v) 以了解更多详情。

The requirement for sponsors to assess prospective students'' competence in the English language will change on 12 August 2010. From 12 August 2010 secure English language testing will apply to all Tier 4 (General) courses below degree level excluding foundation degrees (HNDs in Scotland but not in England and Wales) and English language courses. Further information about all of the above changes will be set out in revised Tier 4 policy guidance and sponsor guidance
