Staff at a college ranked as "highly trusted" by the UK Border Agency are helping foreign students cheat the immigration system, a Sky News investigation has found.
The investigation discovered that diploma certificates and dissertations were for sale inside the London College of Business in Barking.
As "highly trusted" by the UK Border Agency , the college can sponsor visa applications for foreign students and help them towards post-study work visas if they get their applications in by April 6.
But we found foreign students desperate to obtain visas can buy themselves the necessary qualifications without attending any classes.
It should take nine months to get a postgraduate diploma from the college but its marketing consultant has been secretly filmed by Sky News telling students they can have one in a week if they pay ?1,000.
Dr Javed Akhtar told one student who had not been on the course: "Don't worry - It could be done in a week. The first thing is registration. Then comes your PGD. When you get your PGD you'll be registered with the University in a day. The only thing you need to do is submit your dissertation."
