最早在英国移民局的网站上看到的是这样写的：
These changes apply to all Master's degree and PhD students commencing their studies in the UK on or after 1 May 2006. They will be eligible to apply for SEGS regardless of the subject they have studied.
后来在英国驻北京大使馆签证服务的网页上看到中文的描述如下：http://www.uk.cn/bj/visa_index.asp?Lang=C&menu_id=439&artid=1206
新的移民局政策改变:
所有研究生和博士生（无论是什么专业），还有理工科毕业的本科生，将能够在他们完成学业后至少在英国工作12个月以上。此政策自2006年5月1日之后起有效。
如果您是一名在2006年5月1日之前毕业的学生，那么您还是需要遵照以下的理工科毕业生培养计划的要求。
我又点了这个驻北京大使馆的英文版http://www.uk.cn/bj/visa_index.asp?lang=e&menu_id=434&artid=1176，是这么写的：
This category has been created for applicants who have already completed studies in the UK so as they can work for one year.
New immigration rule change:
All Masters and PhD students (regardless of subject) and undergraduates in science and engineering subjects will be able to work in the UK for up to 12 months after they complete their studies on or after 1st May 2006.
If you are a student who has graduated before 1st May 2006 then you must still meet the previous requirements for the SEGS Programme as below.
这个commencing 和complete 一字之差，关系到今天7月毕业和明年7月毕业的学生呢！
是中文翻译的问题呢还是home office的问题？请大家都来讨论讨论
