International Graduate Scheme

Post by raniwza » Fri Apr 27, 2007 1:46 pm

Please can anyone tell us if ACCA is considered an eligible qualification for the International Graduate Scheme 1 year work permission without sponsorship? It is a post-graduate certificate isn't it?

What are the forms that we have to fill in and when we have to do this? i.e when the final results are out or when the student visa is expired?

Please reply asap?

Many many THANKS

But ACCA is considered a post graduate qualification - Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (I completed my masters and degree in the UK and managed to get exemptions for this paper) - and after finishing stage 2, there is an option to complete a project/dissertation to gain BSc (Hons) Applied Accounting from Oxford Brookes University? Stage 3 is equivalent to masters level?

Why postgraduate diploma holders are allowed to stay for IGS but not ACCA students who would probably as higher level of qualification (after completing stage 3)?

Please can you advise the home office phone number so that my friends and I could double check this?

Thanks
