SEGS to Student to PSW???

[AbdullahMalik]

Hi

I had taken SEGS in 2007 after completing my MSc. After SEGS my HSMP application was refused so I came back to Student visa and started an MBA. Now I am about to finish the MBA.

Can I go to PSW for 1 year now becuase I had only 1 year in SEGS that time and now PSW is offering 2 years?

An early reply will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Unfortunately you cannot get PSW because you have been on SEGS previously.

You probably should look at other work based routes.
