Policies and procedures with regard to the non-arrival of a student

Where a visa application is not successful, the student or centre representative must fax the refusal letter (form APP 200) from the Embassy / High Commission along with a copy of the passport details. If a student obtains a visa and does not report to the college by the due date they will be considered as a "non-arrival" and the Home Office will be advised. According to MSTRS policy, a list of all the non-arrival students and their details will be sent to the Home Office. (Please see the reporting events from Admissions document)

Policies and procedures for the non-attendance of a student

Student attendance are strictly monitored. Non-attendance is not acceptable unless validated reasons are given. According to MSTRS policy, a warning notice is sent to students who stay absent for one week without any notification. Failure to attend classes consecutively for one month (in the event of long courses, without notice) will result in the student being expelled from MSTRS. The Home Office will be advised of the expulsion. Students must meet the minimum 80% attendance requirement. If this is not done they face expulsion and their details will be forwarded to the Home Office.
