Scotland’s red carpet for Indian students
Cynics say scheme amounts to a “pay–as-you-go” immigration policy
Edinburgh: In the battle for cash-bearing overseas students being fought in British universities, Scotland is targeting India aggressively. A scheme offers possibly the ultimate prize to those who choose to read at a Scottish university; a chance to settle in Scotland.
The rather grandly named Fresh Talent Initiative allows any fee-paying international student to stay on and work in Scotland for up to two years without a visa or work permit once he or she graduates from a Scottish university. Government agencies will even help find jobs. Cynics say this effectively amounts to a “pay-as-you-go” immigration policy.
