Qualification

Post by richardcja » Sat May 23, 2009 7:57 pm

The Tier 1 rules have been changed recently which leaves tose with normal Degrees unable to claim points it.

The mininum qualification at the moment is for Masters.

I've checked the Home Office website and turns out that ACCA is equivalent to masters.

In order to qualify for the 35 points, do you have to complete the entire ACCA before you qualify for the 35 points or you can qualify for it as long as you are doing Level3 of ACCA

Please advise

Hi Richardcja,

Would you consider final year student to be a doctor and allow him to do surgery? Unless you complete your qualification(course--all years), you cannot claim points for it.
