Thousands of foreign students forced to queue overnight to register
Thousands of foreign students are being forced to queue through the night to register their arrival.
By law, they have to report to the police, and they've only got seven days to do it. But there is only one office in Central London where they can do so.

London Metropolitan University may become the first in Britain to be banned from educating foreign students, according to reports.
The University has previously been allowed to sponsor visas, but authorities no longer trust it to monitor its students and ensure they don't become illegal immigrants.
It means that around 2,600 students from outside the European Union will have 60 days to find places on other courses at a different institution, or they will be asked to leave the country.
However a Boarder Agency spokesperson said: "We have not made a decision yet.”
They added: "Any education provider has to meet strict standards, ensuring they provide high quality education, and take their immigration responsibilities seriously. We will not tolerate any abuse of the immigration system.”
