Study in the UK and Covid-19 updates

New entries in Autumn:

The next intake for the international students is expected to be in the September or October 2020 sessions. The applications are in normal processing.

Teaching methodology:

The new rising concern is that what will be the teaching method after this pandemic? UK universities will adopt blended learning techniques and methodologies. In the upcoming sessions, there will be hybrid courses, which means that the university campuses will be online, but some courses will be online. The digital lectures, online webinars will take place. Moreover, social distancing and other precautions will be followed. Many universities are trying their best to keep the study normal. This will include the:

  • Extension of pre-session English courses
  • Exploring the new learning techniques for new students

Face to Face learning

Before Covid-19 no one knew that online learning will be given too much importance. As now, almost all the universities across the world are holding online classes now. But, many recent surveys conducted by Universities of the UK suggest that many higher education institutes in the UK, prefer to provide in-person teaching and face to face learning, as these methods provide more learning opportunities. 97% of UK universities will be selecting in-person techniques.

Extensions of Student Visas

Those internationals whose visas were going to be expired by July 31st, those students have been granted a one-month extension. This extension period is termed as” Grace Period” by the UK government. This grant will allow the students to travel back to their homes when the restrictions are lifted. This one-month extension is due at the end of August 31st. After it, no students will be allowed to extend their stay in the UK.
