What does the Department do about reports that a college on the Register is bogus?
We take very seriously any allegations we receive about a possible bogus college on the Register. In every case, the Home Office is asked to investigate the allegations. If the investigation upholds the allegations, then that college is removed from the Register; a number of colleges have been removed from the Register following complaints. We can only remove colleges after thorough investigation; the Home Office investigates all allegations as quickly as possible. If you want to report a college that you think is bogus, you should email DIUS with details of the organisation, together with your reasons for believing it to be bogus, including as much information as possible. The information will be passed to the Home Office.
