This depends on whether you meet the requirements for any of the schemes that the UK government operates. If applying to stay in the UK to work in any of the categories below, there is no need to show that you can afford to stay in the UK without needing to work. For further details go to the Home Office's Working in the UK website (www.bia.homeoffice.gov.uk) and click on 'Schemes and Programmes'.
At the moment, the schemes that are most suitable for students who have finished their studies are:
International Graduates Scheme for all those who have obtained a UK degree or postgraduate certificate or diploma on or after 1 May 2007, or a degree completed before this date from a list of qualifying courses. This scheme allows many students to apply to stay in the UK for up to a year in any kind of job without needing a work permit, or to be self-employed or to set up a business. You can apply for a maximum of 12 months under the scheme but will not be able to apply again even if you later complete another qualification. However, you may qualify to move from the scheme to work permit employment or into the Highly Skilled Migrant Programme or Innovators scheme.
Fresh Talent: Working in Scotland Scheme for all those who have successfully completed a HND, undergraduate degree course, Master's, PhD, or postgraduate certificate or diploma at a Scottish further or higher education institution to apply to stay in Scotland for up to two years after completing their studies in order to work. There are no restrictions on the type of paid work.
Work Permit Scheme for jobs where no one suitable can be recruited, and occupations where there is a shortage of qualified workers.
Training and Work Experience Scheme for work-based training for a professional or specialist qualification, or work experience.
Highly Skilled Migrant Programme for those with degrees and work experience and prior earnings at a certain level.
The Innovators scheme for entrepreneurs.
Points-based system a new points-based system (PBS) for controlling migration, which is being phased in over the next two years and will replace all of the categories described above. Tier 1 will include a 'post-study' category, incorporating the International Graduates Scheme and Fresh Talent to allow international students to work in the UK for two years on completion of their degree studies.
Tier 1 will also include an 'Entrepreneurs' category, incorporating the current Innovators scheme and a 'general' category incorporating the Highly Skilled Migrant Programme.
