which date is correct?

Post by steve2010 » Fri Feb 05, 2010 5:42 am

I am about to apply for Tier 1 General HSMP and I’m not sure which dates are correct.
My admission letter stated my study was from Monday September 28th 2008 to Friday September 18th 2009.
We all submitted our final dissertation on September 4th 2009, which was 2 weeks before the end of the school calendar. The first official notification of result came out in November 2009.
Question:
Which date am I allowed to start working FULL TIME?
Is it after September 4th when we had all submitted our dissertation and all the students had gone home or September 18th when the academic calendar year ended.
Thanks

Agree with tvn. Just to add, below is an excerpt from Border Force Operations Manual.

2.5 Employment during and after studies
Students are generally only entitled to work 20 hours per week during term time while
studying. However, they may work full time during their vacations and for four
months on completion of their studies, while awaiting results, commencement of a
new course or graduation, providing it is within the expiry date of their extant leave
and subject to the conditions below.
Vacations include holiday periods between terms and the period between the end of
their studies and the expiry date of their entry clearance/leave to remain. Full time
working for students who have finished their course of study is allowed providing they
are not required to re-write or alter their dissertations. Student restrictions still apply
however as a student must not engage in business, self-employment or the
provision of services as a professional sports person or entertainer. A student is not
permitted to pursue a career by filling a permanent full-time vacancy.
