Hi there,
After 9 years we are planning on heading back to the UK.

I have 2 kids, one in second year college and the other first year.

Second year student wants to pursue a law career and will graduate in US and then hopefully take a masters in the UK.

First-year student is looking to be a nurse.

Called several universities in the UK and nobody can really tell us what we need to know. It appears to be dependent on the universities admission policy

Q: What qualifications in the US mean in the UK and would they be enough to get into college in the UK. Learned of https://www.naric.org.uk/naric/ and applied for more info there

Q: Would they be classed as international students? If so for how long?

I'm wondering if anyone knows any "experts" in this area that we could work with to figure out the best way to get back to the UK with minimum disruption to our kids education.

Thanks

You need to have been resident in the UK for the three years prior to entering university to qualify for 'home' fees. Having said that there does seem to be some latitude, and that does depend on the course and the individual university.

Those resident in Scotland for 3 years have ZERO fees to pay for a university course.
