How long does the status last, how is it renewed, and what officially documented post-study work or residence possibilities exist?
No fixed maximum is set: admission is for a period appropriate to the length of the course and the applicant's means, and an extension of stay may be granted, again with a prohibition on employment, where the applicant was admitted with a valid student entry clearance, still meets paragraph 57(i)-(vi) and shows enrolment, regular attendance and satisfactory progress. The official source does not state any post-study work or residence option.
