Compliance Flashes Red for Universities

Institutions with a student sponsor licence must meet a high compliance threshold. Providers can obtain a probationary sponsor licence, and maintain their student sponsor licence, only by passing a Basic Compliance Assessment every 12 months. Without doing so, a university cannot assign confirmations of acceptance for studies (CAS), which are required to apply for a visa.

Consequences of Non-Compliance

If a university fails to pass the Basic Compliance Assessment, it cannot assign CAS, which can lead to problems with attracting international students. Therefore, universities must pay special attention to compliance and undergo regular assessments.
