Hello Everyone,
I live in the United States and am currently finishing a masters degree and desire to someday get a PhD in the UK. I have read a lot previously on this forum and am a bit confused on how some things work and have checked the government websites only to find more confusion. If anyone could take some time to answer some of my questions I would greatly appreciate it.
So, back in 2018 I was convicted of 2 counts of felony drug trafficking (3rd degree). One for a class A and one for a class B substance according to the UK laws. I was sentenced to a one year suspended jail sentence and admitted into a diversionary program which I completed without issue in mid 2019. All non custodial.
My questions are:
Do you think there will EVER be a chance I can get a tier 4 visa?
When considering the crime, does the reviewer consider how severe my punishment was, or how severe it would have been had it been done in the UK?
Like I said, I am currently finishing my masters degree and would not mind having to wait a few years or so to get a PhD but I am trying to figure out my possibilities now so that I may work towards them. I appreciate any help you can give and would also appreciate any other information you think I should know.
