Please assume all classes are being taught unless you are told otherwise. As long as you continue to attend all contact and engagement points wherever possible, your visa status will not be affected by the industrial action. Your academic school will issue the necessary authorised absences for contact points affected by the action.
For taught students, you should attend rescheduled events being held within normal prescribed term dates (term ends on Friday 3rd April 2020). Your attendance and participation are required during term time as conditions of your Tier 4 sponsorship.
While other staff may offer advice about your status, it is important that you only take advice on your Tier 4 student visa status from qualified members of University or Kent Union staff:
- Student Immigration Compliance Team – visacompliance@kent.ac.uk
- Kent Union – advice@kent.ac.uk
- GK Unions at Medway – advice@gkunions.co.uk
We appreciate this may be a difficult time for some of our international students. Please be assured we are here to help you. Please refer to the Advice and Support section if you require further guidance.
