Like the other guy said before your student visa runs out you need to find a job and convince them to give you a work permit. Or else there are some other ways of getting work visa which I will not approve but if you are desperate and have money you could try those out.

 

[navodwickra]

I'm not going through SLIIT...
Yeah i heard that they've cancelled the PSW visa.
What kind of part time jobs did you do in sheffield bro?
Are there cash in hand jobs?
How did you cover your expenses?
It'll be a great help if you could explain the way you did....

I had to ask my parents for money for the first few months, then I worked in a mcdonalds flippin burgers

i'm gonna pay tuition fees for a year before I go and carry about 1500 pounds with me.I hope i'll be fine.but I'll have to work hard and save money for the other 2 years....hey bro,did you take that work placement year?.....I'm kinda confused.do we have to pay tuition for that year too?

 

[rarabhagya]

from 2011 onwards 2 year work permits are cancelled
as soon as completed the degree you have come back or have to do Msc and extend the student visa

I think you talking about HSMP (Highly Skilled Migrant Programme). It is cancelled. But after completing degree you can apply work permit through company.

Noooope HSMP was cancelled long ago then came Tier1(G) it was cancelled too then they cancelled the Tier 1 (PSW), he was talking about Tier1 PSW(Post Study Work).
So wich means once you're done with your studies you will be left with two options,

1. Get a work permit
2. Or get married to a settled person

Depends on the accommodation. If you find a local one then you don't have to pay much. I might still have few people I know in Sheffield so I can arrange a place for you (can't promise though). Sharing with others saves a lot so till you get up on your feet stay in shared accommodation.

If you go for college/university accommodation then it'll be bit expensive.

There is no such thing as a work placement year, unless your course specifically mention it.
