In fact in the Renminbi exchange rate changes and pounds, or let the Chinese students to the United Kingdom learning easier. A year ago, we might know the exchange rate of RMB and pounds almost 15: 1, now the exchange rate has fallen to less than 10: 1. Visa means change now allows our students to submit their applications before they know whether they are eligible for this visa, thus allowing the entire visa process is very simple and straightforward. We hope that all students studying in the United Kingdom were able to go to the United Kingdom border authority's Web site to learn more about the new requirements, some of the information in the new system. This will ensure that their visa applications is very smooth and very fast. If students get a visa, the visa requirement in a new, international students can do in their learning period, weekly working not more than 20 hours, holidays and they can be a full-time job.

All independent fee-based schools, colleges, and universities, they first need to apply for a license before you can receive overseas students. This will help the United Kingdom Government to combat all suspicious, illegal school, Chinese speaking is good news, will ensure that their application of language schools, colleges and universities are legally recognised educational institutions, to date, more than 1000 the United Kingdom educational institutions applied for the admission of students. I want to say to all students who apply for a visa, the most important point is honest. United Kingdom border authority if it is found that the applicant's use of forged material, which lie in the application process, or to hide important information, they will be refused a visa application, and applicants may be refused entry United Kingdom lasted 10 years. I'm very happy to welcome my colleague from the United Kingdom border authority MikeMachin McKinney describing the details of a specific visa. Thanks Mike McGinn Machin: thank you, Mr. Ambassador. Ladies and gentlemen, good morning! my name is MikeMachin McKinney, I come from the United Kingdom border authority of district managers. I am very pleased to have this opportunity to introduce you to the new United Kingdom student visa points scoring system. New point scoring system is the United Kingdom immigration system 45 years of major reform part of them. This will help to defend our border United Kingdom, and prevent all illegal immigrants. From June 2008 onwards, in fact the against high-tech visa points bonus system has started to run. From November 2008 onwards, other job categories of visa points bonus system also begins to run. From 31 March this year, we will run for a student visa points scoring system. We very much hope that the United Kingdom continues to be the main international students study abroad destination. Just as Mr. Ambassador described earlier, now go to the United Kingdom to study should be the value of such a period of time. I would like to apply for all to go to the United Kingdom for study abroad students who understand our new visa system should be something very important. Meter point scoring system will enable the United Kingdom the original entry 80 different immigration channels reduced to five main categories of applications, among which the first, second and fifth category on work visas are now in operation. The fourth category is on a student visa, the third category is on the non-technology of visa applications, which now have not yet started running. In the new visa application form, the applicant in his application before to check he is not in compliance with visaApplication requirements. At the same time this new visa application form also introduces a very important security concept. Now the United Kingdom's employer or school, if they want to guarantee visa applicants came to the United Kingdom, they must be prior to the registration of United Kingdom border authority, to obtain relevant qualification. This means that the United Kingdom border authority will and all of the United Kingdom of the guarantee institutions more closely together to ensure that the issuance of visas can be smoothly, and that a visa will not be abused. At the same time, this will protect the interests of overseas students, because they do not go to some suspicious, illegal school. For students, there are three different types of visa applications: one is for General students, adult students; the second is for young students, this is a new point integral system of visa categories. At the moment I do introduce my students the main reference to General, adult student visa applications, because the vast majority of students when applying for a student visa is in line with this category. In fact, young students, requirements, etc. and ordinary students basically similar. The third is the short-term student visa, this fact when in 2007 have started to run, just mentioned ordinary students and young student visa categories will also be added to the system. The short-term student visa refers to learning in the United Kingdom does not exceed 6 months of these students. New point integral system has many clear benefits to students. In the new system, the average student visa will allow overseas students live and study in the United Kingdom, and you can access and the length of his course equivalent so that the student visa is not required for a visa in the United Kingdom. In the period of study and if necessary, students can participate in the internship courses. At the same time in the learning period they can be part-time work, and in the holidays they can carry out in the United Kingdom on a full-time basis. According to point integration system for the first category, that is, graduates of a work visa, all graduates in their finish their course in the United Kingdom after you can get 2 years of time, can there be more work experience. Any application for ordinary student visa, students must apply for access before you want to have in the United Kingdom border authority registered in colleges, they are granted full-time admission notice. The specific information you can refer to the United Kingdom border authority's Web site. If a student in the same school for a course to read, they can do so. But if they want to change to another school, they must inform the United Kingdom border authority. Overseas students can higher education institutions in the United Kingdom read full-time degree course, or the higher level course. They can also choose to be recognized and the United Kingdom's higher education certificate the same level of overseas higher education courses. Of course they can also choose to read some degree-level courses in the following, or they can also choose to read English courses. If students want to learn more about their application is not compatible with these categories, they can go to consult the relevant institutions, institutions will give them relevant information, and they want to know about related Web sites. You want to go to the United Kingdom to study English for students, we want them to enter the United Kingdom before some English Learning Foundation, in line with the relevant standards, we welcome him to the United Kingdom to study English. Just now introduces a new point of integral system for concise information, specific to you below I explain what is the point. For United Kingdom general student visa applicants need 40 meter point scoring system, the following points. Of which 30 are school-issued the applicant proves that he is learning courses of the visas issued invitations. This letter should include his application for course information, and to guarantee school registration number, some personal information of students, course information and course level. In this year's later time, this system will be a new online system, this new online system will provide each student with a proof of admission confirmation, these are online. In March we start this new system, or use the visa invitation letter. 10 minutes is the student needs to prove that they have sufficient funds, the applicant needs to prove that they have the funds to pay for their tuition, they are able to bear its own costs of living in the United Kingdom. We are the first clear the cost of standards should be like. Specific amount may be based on students ' learning in the London area. For the London area students, they must first prove that they have the burden of first-year tuition, and they need to prove that they have the funds of �� 7200 as their first-year cost of living. In areas outside of London, the standard of living is 5400 pounds. For learning courses within 9 months of students, who need to prove that the monthly living expenses reached 800 pounds respectively (London region) and 600 pounds (outside London). In addition they also prove that they have sufficient funds to pay their tuition fees. In China I think we prove a universal way of funds is the Bank certificate of deposit or a book, we will require proof of deposit or passbook is applying for a prior valid within one month of a deposit receipt and the book, and we hope that this money is already in his accounts the following deposit more than 28 days. The following two pages is also very important information. Because we want the students to the application to ensure that they submit required a number of important materials. These materials must be original and must be a real materials and can be documented. Only we get to the application of relevant materials, we will approve you can get your needs 40 minutes. If we don't see you submit the required materials, your visa may therefore be refused. To sum up, we need school issued visa invitation letter. Including your application to the school curriculum in the process the submitted some proof of your current situation of some materials, such as your current qualifications and so on some material. With these materials, the visa applicant will receive 30 minutes of bonus points. Proof of funds accounting in 10 minutes, if the visa applicationPeople meet these requirements, but they had no adverse United Kingdom immigration or emigration records then they'll get what you need a student visa. Finally there is also a 10 10, this is not a very good idea. This is not to say, but say 10 years. United Kingdom Government for all fraud, false materials this zero-tolerance policy. If the student visa application process, the applicant submitted false information, they deceive visa staff, or conceal important information, their visa application is refused, and they may be after 10 years are denied submission of visa applications. I think this is a very strict laws, but this is already in the beginning of last year, we will continue to follow this requirement. This also shows us in the face of deception, false information, abusing visas etc Act serious attitude. Finally I would like to talk about some very positive things. We have developed a new point of application integration system is that our entire visa process more transparent, and fair. We also hope that there will be more students to study in the United Kingdom as the major countries of destination. We actually have a sentence in English about the point system of slogans called integral "Makeyour educationcount" Chinese relatively accurate translation is "We hope that you are in the United Kingdom's learning experiences can become your life very valuable experience." So welcome to the United Kingdom to study.
