What PGD did you do?
If the awarding body was not in the UK then you can not get PSW.

They are still on the DIUS register.

The question is more to do with the PGD - it is all well and good saying it is issued by a registered body. What registered body?

I note that some of the PGD's are covered by an Indian Uni - so if it is THAT registered body it is not worth a toss for PSW!!

Hope that helps :roll:

100% proper and genuine college

BITE is 100% proper and genuine college and shouldn't be mentioned in this way, we all students at BITE are genuine and we do study for our degrees, so please don't ask that kind of questions

best regards for all

If the awarding body is NOT a UK body then you can not get PSW. That is the point.

I do not care a monkey if the students are hard working or genuine, the question is about getting PSW.

So do not come across all offended because you are a BITE student!

Following colleges have been removed from the register:

1. Cambridge college of learning
2. Westminster college
3. Barmingham international college
4. Oxford college
5. This list will get longer by every single week passing.

BITE: Most of the applications from BITE graduates are being holded. That is no refusals no approvals.

LCMIT: Despite issuing the diplomas, LCMIT is even refusing to verify their own documents in order to save their own neck. They have even lodged a complaint with the police that some of their college stationary is stolen.

what's the best option for those with diplomas from LCMIT...

Post by goodman94 » Thu Dec 25, 2008 2:14 am

Hi what for those with diplomas from lcmit...& for those who 're still waiting for the decision? one of my friend is waiting for more than 3 months n have diploma from lcmit??

what's the best option available? As there're many genuine students as well in bites n lcmit colleges etc?

Is withdrwal the best available choice??

How they will establish who's real n who's fake? As when they issue these they keep a record of it as well?

its really a mess up

any suggestion/advice will be appreciated!!

2> if i withdraw my application it's a waste of money...because my PGDBA is off no use....i will also prove that i am not genuine student....i am genuine studying.....


3>call them...ask then inform them about my situation....
so if i call them and tell them i want to do MBA now so...if it is possible for you to inform me what is going on with my process....i dont know what kind of question they ask....

I can not understand, How come you have been studying in two diffirent courses? On the other hand you have been doing ACCA and then BITE. I am sure if it is BITE then you have paid for it to gain this qualification. I can not understand that why student are payiing hell a lot of money to get right of work for two years. I mean you shouldnt spent money just for bogus degrees. If I would be in similar situation then I would rather study at uni. I am sure if you are paying 2500 or 3000 for this dodgy qualification then why dont you get real qualification from university by paying 6000 or 7000 pounds. and I am sure there are university like Sunderland, Greenwich and Thames valley offer in really cheap and I am sure no one can challenge thier qualification.

As far as concern of this particular PSW visa, I know this visa has been abused baddly becuase i know few guys those applied for this visa by paying 2500 to 3000 and most are still waiting but one of my friend get approved few months ago. I guess he was lucky. On his visa success he recommended 6 or 7 other guys to the same college (I cant remember the name I think its something like BITE or BITES) and now all those student are waiting since last couple of months. But overall I do agree with FM's posts and they make sense to me.

There is no way to fake ACCA - this is a tough course as you know so do not sweat it about UKBA thinking it is fake or you are a fake student.
How the hell can you study for ACCA and work and do another course - you must be knackered all the time. More power to your pencil I say.
As for BITE – there are questions to be answered by this college. It is too early to say what the issues are but there is a good chance the PGD will be OK. Still very much up in the air at the moment, sorry it will be a wait and see typw thing.
Good luck :D

thank you, thank you, thank you FM

BITE college has been hit hard by rumours, I've been studying there for the last one year or so, I can assure you that BITE is a proper institution with genuine studentds all round, with high attendance percentage, tutors of best quality, highly paid, one lecturer told me he got paid £300 a day.

I went to other colleges as well before, the least i can say it's very poor environment, max of 4 to 5 students in a session.

from my experience I can tell the difference between BITE and other colleges, and I know HO can see that as well.

As far as i know the BITE is a diploma machine and currently HO is investigating this college. I know number of student paid 2000 to 2500 to get PGD. I can not understand that all these crying student have PGD, when just after one more samester you can get MSc.

2nd, in another forum a person claimed to be an official of HO says that last year they receive 400 student visa applications from BITE but this the number of application from BITE for PSW visa is in thousands which put a big question mark on authunticity of the college. But so far BITE is under investigation and thier application are on hold, not only BITE but also many other colleges too. HO is treating other applications as normal. My brother received his PSW after 4 weeks as he recently completed his MSc from brunel university.

my brother,

if i was going to get my PSW from PGD why should i spend 2000-2500 from BITE because i might have bought same from CCL as per this foram i read somewhere that it cost only 800-1000 pound...

one more thing if go and check that course also cost same amount so why should i buy because i can study also with the same amount ....people prefer to study my friend rather then buy with the same price....
