Can I get a Visa based on CMI Level 8 Diploma after MPhil

Post by Betta » Thu Nov 20, 2014 12:24 pm

Please this is urgent one, I'am begging for response from Gurus and all those with knowledge in this area.

I am completing my MPhil in Dec.2014 and Visa ends few months thereafter. I have failed to secure a PhD place to extend my Visa because of the 8 years capping (spent 7 years on student visa and 2 years post study). All the universities I have applied to are giving same reason-I really blundered to go for MPhil instead of PhD in the first place. Someone advised that since I have only a year to study, I can consider doing CMI Level 8 Diploma in Strategic Management and Leadership. My first student Visa was issued in Dec 2005 but i only arrived in the UK in January 2006. According to my calculations, it shows I have only one year to study. Please someone advise if I can get a Visa based on this programme after I successfully complete MPhil programme (level 7)

My aim is to bridge up to December 2015 when I will qualify for 10 years long stay-please help, this issue gives me sleepless nights.
Kind regards

A lot of PHD programs contain the first year of study which is called MPHIL. You may argue about that.
Please donot send PM. Write in open forum to facilitate others too.
