New policy says no masters required for Tier 1, But you need more points to pass the Point calculation.

most people wont be able to apply for tier 1 because they have raised minimum earning band to 25 k which is 5k more than it is currently.

so, i guess they now need to look for sponsored work permit rather than highly skilled work permit.
