Following on from our recent news article about the government undertaking a review of the Graduate visa route, the Migration Advisory Committee's (MAC) review has now been published. The committee has found no widespread abuse of the route and recommended that no changes be made. You can read a summary of the findings and a response from the UK Council of International Student Affairs (UKCISA).

The full MAC report Rapid Review of the Graduate Route was released on Tuesday 14 May 2024 and is available on their website here. 

The government has released a news story following the review and confirmed they have accepted the MAC’s recommendations, including retaining the Graduate route in its current form. 

Please contact an International Advisor if you have any questions about the Graduate visa route.
