Question to the Department for Education:
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what estimate she has made of the number of British National (Overseas) visa holders currently in UK higher education.
Information on British National (overseas) visa holders in UK higher education is not held by the Department.
The Higher Education Statistics Agency collects and publishes statistics on enrolments and qualifications obtained at UK Higher Education Providers on behalf of the UK government. However, visa status is not recorded.
