Here's a summary of the changes to the UK visa system (to take effect from April 2011):

• Only 1,000 visas will be granted from April 2011 to April 2012 under the Tier 1 Points Based System and these will be to people of exceptional talent, without a job offer.
• An annual limit of 20,700 visas has been introduced under the skilled route, for people with job offers and whose occupations are at graduate level. This is believed to be the solution to the issues faced by businesses since the interim Tier 1 cap was introduced.

P.S. there may be more changes announced in the coming months, so current students should contact their schools' career services office and prospective students should contact their admission coordinators to get the full picture…
