Edinburgh uni student left with no degree told to leave UK after marking boycott chaos

An Edinburgh University student has been told to leave the UK to get a visa due to a marking boycott that has left him without a degree.

Will Scheffler, from Wisconsin, in the US, is part of a group of around 2,000 students that "graduated" recently but have no classified degree.

The 21-year-old currently holds a conditional offer at the London School of Economics (LSE) and is looking to continue his studies in the next academic year but is yet to get his results due to industrial action.
