Student to entrepreneurship

Post by rahul190 » Sat Nov 24, 2018 2:23 pm

Hello,

On behalf of my friend,

After studying MBA from University in UK, as on student visa, is it possible to switch to entrepreneurship visa route (inside application)?

Okay, prefered investment route is £200k partially own funding and partially third party by an applicant after MBA from UK university

Is it possible to change route to tier 1 entrepreneurship after graduation under this circumstances?

No, he/she would need to apply from outside UK. Alternatively can apply for Tier 1 Graduate Entrepreneur Visa (https://www.gov.uk/tier-1-graduate-entr ... -this-visa) and then switch to T1E within a year
