This has hampered both experience and opportunities at a huge cost.","additional_details":"A huge proportion of this international student body are postgraduates who come to UK for a year of which next 6 months will be working from home and cancelled field/international trips. The graduating batch will have 4 to 6 months after their studies in UK with uncertainties of even returning back.
