A student who faces losing his place at Oxford University due to uncertainty over his immigration status has told the Guardian he does not know what he would do if deported to Zimbabwe, where he was adopted as an orphan by a British family. Brian White, 21, was abandoned as a baby and lived in an orphanage in Zimbabwe until he was six. “I’m not legally allowed to work, so I assume I would be deported to Africa,” Brian White told the Guardian. He received four A*s at A-level but was unable to take up his place at Oxford last year because he was not eligible for student finance. “While his father and brothers are British, Brian and his adoptive mother, who is also Zimbabwean, need entry clearance,” he said.
