Chartered ABS statement on the Government review of the Graduate Route

26th March 2024

"The Chartered ABS welcomes the review into the Graduate Route. It is vital that it is used by students for its intended purpose as part of supporting the Government's aim of ensuring we have a robust immigration system that enables the UK to attract and retain talented international students to contribute to society and the economy. We are concerned by the rapid nature of the review which the Home Secretary has asked the Migration Advisory Committee to undertake and believe that the Committee must engage with the full range of stakeholders to ensure that there is no unintended damage to the UK’s world leading business schools or the universities in which those business schools are placed.” 

Professor Robert MacIntosh, Chair of the Chartered ABS
