Is the problem that once someone is stuck on on Integrated course and hits the 6 to 8 months now required for an IR, they are stuck with it because they can't swap to a more efficient provider, like a modular student can ?
The large schools are now owned by big overseas corporates more used to B2B sales and and massive margins; looks like the self sponsored students are just finding that they are very low on the priority list and will just have to bend over and take it for much longer than originally anticipated.
it must be frustrating for them when they see everyone else able to apply for jobs in a booming market.
