Re-entry with one month left on my student visa

[nio68]

Dear All,

I have a quick question. I am done with my masters but my graduation is Dec 15 and my student visa expires Jan 12, 2012. I intend leaving UK Nov 26 to return Dec 12 for my graduation on the 15th. My question is can i do this? Will the immigration officer cause any problems for me?

Any advise will be much welcome. Has anybody any such experience of this?

Thanks all.

Best,

re-enter the UK when course is finished

Its risky!

They will not let you enter = 95% chance

They will keep you detained at Airport, few hours or a day, then let you enter = 5% chance

They will let you enter starightaway = 0% chance

So choice is yours.

this is just scaremongering. Where do you get these 'statistics' from?

Yes there is a possibility of being refused entry, but not a 95% possibility. In my experience the majority re-enter the UK with no difficulties, but there is a risk of being refused entry.
