We should allow students to travel to study in other countries. They can quarantine at arrival if they must, but what is the problem with that if you are planning to stay for a whole year?
From perspective of pandemic control, UK seems not to be a safe place for international students and hence, may not a good destination. A new survey is required urgently to investigate how the Universities are behaving with the international students during this crisis period. However, at least, they didn't do in the same way as the Harvard did. The later asked the students to leave in few days' notice leading to a chaos. Overall, UK Universities' behaviour with students is probably not bad. Very bad days are waiting ahead. Students from third world countries must be cautious before spending their hard earned money for high level of tuition fee. Quality of teaching, residence and availability of healthy food are also important factors that, I believe, not available in many Universities. I'd request especially the young learners, to think twice before attending a undergrad course fully on self-finance at this moment. Students may opt for those institutions where social and personal hygiene are manageable. Sharing room is not a good option at this moment.
