Action plan

www.lincoln.ac.uk

The register records this sponsor as Subject To Action Plan. That is a statement of what the register says, not a prediction about the licence.

An action plan is a corrective measure for a breach short of a serious breach. While one is in force UKVI may limit the sponsor’s CAS allocation, including to zero, and a sponsor is expected to tell its students how the plan affects them. What this means in practice →
