Hi Joy
If your college’s licence is currently suspended, I would not recommend travelling – you could face problems with an ECO when you come back to the UK.

Hi Kamal
You can change college if you want, but you will lose any money paid to London SAM.
They are currently trying to resolve the suspension of their sponsor licence and rleased the following statement on their website:

Hi Ravindu
As every individual case is different, there is no way to know exactly when the college will re-appear on the Register of Sponsors. Maybe it will never come back – but at least the UK Border Agency will contact you in this case.
You should understand that it is a slow process and can take several months; following an inspection there are 32 days set aside for exchanging letters….
Don’t worry about your visa application – it will have been put on hold until your college’s suspension is resolved.
Good luck and keep me posted on your situation.

Hi Shah
I have contacted the college for an official update and will post any reply I receive.
Whilst your college’s sponsor licence is suspended, the UK Border Agency advises you don’t travel. You should remain in contact with your college to defer the start date of your course.
Have you been able to get any information from your college or agent?
Good luck and keep me updated on your situation.

Hi Ravindu
Rayat London College’s sponsor licence is still suspended.
It is impossible to know how long it will take for a school or college to be re-included on the Register of Sponsors, but it can take several months. The process is definitely a slow one; for example, there is a 32 day period following inspection set aside for exchanging letters!

i am worried about my a college , and a bout my visa, i came in the uk only resone to study i do not want any thing else , but i am in bad mood, because that is not fair to panic students about their study, i reckon if there is any problem you should sort it out before the students starting their courses
however, how can i find a college or university , the time run out
i hope you doing well about our destine
thank you very much for chance to give my opinion

Thanks for your comments Ray.
I completely understand your frustration – I’m sure that as an international student in the UK, it must be a very frustrating and worrying time. But the key is not to panic too much.
I think it would actually be worse if the UK Border Agency was to suspend all schools and colleges and only let new applicants come once an inspection has been carried out. This would almost certainly destroy the international student sector in the UK! But I concede, the current situation is stressful for students – but as long as your college has followed the rules then they – and their students – have nothing to fear. I think a major problem with all this change is bureaucracy – embassy staff aren’t doing what the rules specify they should e.g. many students having their visa application refused during an education provider’s sponsor licence suspension.
I guess the key thing is to make sure your education provider and agent are legitimate. And if your college has their licence suspended, then keep in contact with them and put pressure on them as you’ve already paid your fees.

Hi and thanks for your comments.
As of 8 February 2010, London SAM still does not appear on the Tier 4 Register of Sponsors. They have released the following statement on their website:
We’ve now created a list of education providers who have been suspended from the Tier 4 Register of Sponsors.
This list is accurate back to December 2009 and will be udpated daily.
You can view the list here: Master List of College Suspensions

hello. can you pls inform me of the status of London Academy for Higher Education (LAHE)? The school has been suspended, but their agents said that it’s just waiting for the license from the HO, and that it has already been re-accredited by the BAC. Does it follow that once accreditation is given by the BAC, the license can now be re issued? Hope to hear clear answers soon! thanks.
