@Antonio:Important Warning for Those Considering Studying in the UK: Know the Reality!
In recent years, the UK’s visa policies have turned into a serious trap, especially for international students. On the surface, it may appear to offer "education and promising career opportunities", but in reality, this path becomes financially and emotionally draining for many.
The Truth About ILR (Indefinite Leave to Remain): Many people who come to the UK for education believe they can eventually obtain ILR, making huge financial sacrifices, leaving their families, and radically changing their lives. However, with the UK government tightening immigration rules year after year, the path to ILR has become nearly impossible. Constantly changing regulations, strict time limits, expensive visa renewals, and additional charges (such as the Immigration Health Surcharge and visa fees) make the process not only difficult but seemingly designed to discourage people from settling.Finding a Sponsored Job: Is It Realistic?Staying in the UK after graduation requires securing a job with visa sponsorship—this is where most people hit a wall. Finding an employer willing to sponsor a visa is extremely difficult. The majority of companies holding a sponsorship licence only consider highly skilled individuals in shortage areas. On top of that, employers prefer local workers to avoid the costly and bureaucratic sponsorship process. This means that for most graduates, the chance of staying in the country is close to zero.Education is Not an Investment—It May Be a Trap Studying in the UK no longer guarantees a stable future. In fact, students are often treated simply as paying customers. Universities charge extremely high tuition fees, but offer almost no meaningful support after graduation. If you can’t secure a sponsored job quickly, you’re expected to leave the country—often burdened by debt and disillusionment.Conclusion: Do Your Research Before You Go.The dream of studying in the UK and progressing to ILR has become largely an illusion under the current system. High tuition fees, the near-impossibility of finding sponsorship, and increasingly strict immigration policies make this route risky
