Will 17,000 Malaysian students in the UK be effected by the #Brexit vote?
The new referendum addressing the departure of the United Kingdom from the European Union has won with 52% of the votes in favor. This might not be a good step for the UK, especially in terms of the flow and diversity of the international students into the UK.
What did the EU mean for the UK’s relationship with international students?
#Brexit is introducing several factors that will definitely impact the mobility of international students into the UK.
These factors are summarized as follows:
A closer examination of the situation gives a better look at the bigger picture. Let’s examine the situation further.
There are approximately 440,000 international students in the UK.
This is all happening before the #Brexit vote.
So, before we take a look at the negatives, the question that many people are asking is (what is the positive side of #Brexit for higher education in the UK?)
Positive side of #Brexit for higher education in the UK:
The pro-campaigners claim that this referendum will bring a sense of independence to the UK again. However, many researchers have expressed their disagreement and are warning against the impact of #Brexit.
Meanwhile, there seems to be some relatively interesting benefits for the UK leaving the EU:
The impact of #Brexit on the UK’s higher education:
The negative side of #Brexit can be summarized as follows:
Fernando M Galán Palomares, the president of the European Students’ Union, mentioned that the expectation of lower student mobility between the UK and the EU countries is due to an expected increase in UK’s tuition fees , hostile visa regulations, a decreasing access to healthcare services, and limited to non-existing work opportunities.
For now, nothing will change. The process of exiting the EU, officially and effectively, will take 2 years. However, uncertain economic state will negatively impact the future of international students not just in the UK, but in the EU and the effect might extend to commonwealth countries.
Cost of living are expected to rise and unemployment rates may increase. The UK is a divided country, politically and religiously. #Brexit is already pushing the Union of the UK to a breakup point.
Anti-immigration reforms supported by the leave campaigners is aimed at less migrants and international students are certainly a big part of the migration patterns.
