Graduate Visa Route for Indian Students

The post-study work visa allows Indian students studying undergraduate and postgraduate courses at UK universities to look for work in the UK for up to 2 years after graduation.

During this period, students can work at any skill level without being required to meet the conditions of a minimum threshold salary or job sponsorship from employers, and the Graduate Route is a great way for international students to access the lucrative UK labour market.
