Article:Alasdair Allan wants the government to approve a more flexible system for those looking for work north of the border after they qualify.
The UK-wide post-study visa scheme was scrapped in 2012.
Since then, the SNP has campaigned for its return.
An inquiry by the Scottish affairs committee earlier this year concluded that removing the visa had made Scotland a less attractive destination to study.
But the UK government rejected the call, saying other visa options were available for former students.
UK Immigration Minister Robert Goodwill said on Friday that restoring the scheme in Scotland would complicate the immigration system.
However, he has now agreed to an "urgent" meeting with Mr Allan.
The post-work study visa allowed overseas graduates to work for two years in the UK after completing their studies.
It was abolished after the Home Office concluded that the system had been open to widespread abuse.
Dr Allan said Mr Goodwill needed to show that he was listening to Scotland to provide an immigration system that met the country's needs.
He added: "There is consensus in Scotland - amongst business, education and every political party in Holyrood - that we need a return of a post-study route to allow talented students to remain and contribute to the Scottish economy.
"We have pressed the UK government for a number of months to meet with us and discuss this issue further and I look forward to hearing what Mr Goodwill has to say to justify this extremely disappointing and mystifying decision."
A UK government spokeswoman said: "The UK continues to welcome genuine students coming to our world-class universities and we are determined to make sure that what we offer brings real benefits to this country.
"As the home secretary announced earlier this month, we will be consulting on what more we can do to strengthen the system to support the best universities - and those that stick to the rules - to attract the best talent.
"This is not about pulling up the drawbridge to reduce student numbers, but making sure that those students that come here, come to study."

Article: Mr Harvie, who represents Glasgow at Holyrood, will be fighting for the Glasgow North seat at Westminster on 8 June.
He said he wanted voters to "take the fight to the Tories" and elect a Green MP who will vigorously oppose them.
Patrick Grady won the seat in 2015 for the SNP with a majority of 9,295.
Mr Harvie also said he wanted to offer a "positive, hopeful alternative" to the Conservatives.
The announcement follows the local elections in Scotland where a record seven councillors were elected across the city, including Hillhead in the heart of Glasgow North, where the Greens came out top.
Mr Harvie, who has been an MSP for Glasgow since 2003, said: "This election was called by a Tory prime minister taking advantage of a weak Labour party - but we can use it to send Theresa May a message.
"By electing me, Glasgow can show that we reject May's Hard Brexit disaster and fight for our future in Europe. We can show her government that Scotland rejects their cruel attacks on disabled people and the vulnerable, including the vile Rape Clause. And we can prove that there is a better way.
"Green voices at Westminster will be critical in these next few years, as the Tories try to inflict terrible and lasting damage on Glasgow, Scotland and wider society. We need to take the fight to them with bold, progressive voices in the House of Commons."
At the last election, the Greens only returned one MP to the Commons, with Caroline Lucas winning the Brighton Pavilion seat for a second time.
Patrick Grady will be defending the Glasgow North seat for the SNP. It will also be contested by Stuart Cullen for the Scottish Conservatives, Pam Duncan for Labour and Calum Shepherd for the Scottish Liberal Democrats.

Natalia Wilkanowska, 50, disappeared in 2003 after travelling to visit her ex-husband Gerald Doherty in Luton.
Her body was found in the garden of the house in Icknield Way in December 2015.
Mr Doherty died in 2003. His brothers Joseph and Daniel Doherty are on trial at Luton Crown Court accused of helping conceal her remains and lying to police, charges they deny.
Pathologist Dr Nat Cary told the jury Ms Wilkanowska had suffered a fractured skull consistent with blunt force trauma.
He said the injury "was consistent with falling down stairs, being hit with a weapon or being kicked or stamped on".
Prosecutor Neil King said Ms Wilkanowska's ex-husband was responsible for her death. The couple had separated in 2001 after 23 years of marriage.

The court heard Gerald Doherty took his own life at a flat in Port Glasgow, Renfrewshire, on the date of their wedding anniversary in July 2003. He had been receiving psychiatric care.
Mr King said the couple's children believed their mother was missing.
The jury also heard that Joseph Doherty told his niece Allison Diamond-Roberts Ms Wilkanowska had been the victim of a crime of passion.
Mrs Diamond-Roberts said: "He said my uncle (Gerald) had strangled her.
"He said there was no point looking for her as we wouldn't find her. He said she had been cut up and her body put in black bin bags and distributed all over Luton and that's why we would never find her."
Gerald Doherty's brothers face a total of seven charges relating to the disposal of Natalia's remains.
Daniel Doherty, 67, of Icknield Way, Luton, denies two charges of perverting the course of justice and two charges of obstructing the coroner by aiding and abetting the concealment of the body and by lying to the police.
Joseph Doherty, 73, of Old Greenock Road, Port Glasgow, Scotland, denies perverting the course of justice and obstructing the coroner by giving a false account of her death.
Both men deny preventing lawful burial.
The trial continues.
