He said:"I am one of several thousand students around the UK who have plans to go on to do post graduate study. Due to the ongoing marking and assessment boycott, we are graduating without a degree classification. "Obviously there's been a lot of stress and frustration around that, and unfortunately, it's now started to impact our immigration status as well.
"I'll have to pay upwards of about £1,000 just to get back home to Wisconsin. I have a job here, I pay rent on a flat here as well."A spokeswoman said:"Students who wish to progress their studies without their results can request a letter of formal written confirmation from their sponsor assessing the student is highly likely to complete their course successfully.
"They also have the option to return to their home country and apply for another student visa out of country."
