Graduate Route Update

Please find a below a reminder of the reporting timescales for the Graduate Route. All reports will be submitted by the Student Immigration Compliance Team once a student’s award has been ratified and noted on SITS by the Student Record Team. The Student Immigration Compliance Team will contact students directly once the award of their degree has been reported to UKVI.

• For Postgraduate Taught programmes with a June end date we expect to start submitting these notifications from mid-July.
• For students enrolled on a PGCE or LLM programme, we expect to start submitting these notifications from mid-August.
• For all other Postgraduate Taught students we expect to be able to start submitting these notifications from early December.   
• Postgraduate Research students are awarded their degree on the 28th of each month . We expect to submit a notification of award to UKVI within 7 working days of the award being noted on the system.
