Student Visa
If you are 16 years and over and can come to the UK to study with a licenced provider.
ENTRY CLEARANCE :
*** CHANGES****From the 5th October 2020 the Tier 4 (General) Student Visa will be replaced with the “Student Route”. This is applicable as from the 1st January 2021.
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW:
You can apply for a Student visa to study in the UK if you’re 16 or over and you: · have been offered a place on a course by a licensed student sponsor · have enough money to support yourself and pay for your course – the amount will vary depending on your circumstances · can speak, read, write and understand English
have consent from your parents if you’re 16 or 17 – you’ll need evidence of this when you apply
If you’re 16 or 17 and you want to study at an independent school in the UK, you may be eligible for a Child Student visa instead.
If the Student Visa application is successful, you will be permitted to remain in the UK for the full length of your course for a short time after. After the completion of the course you have the option to leave the UK or alternatively You may be able to extend your Student visa to stay longer and continue your course or study a new course. This includes if you currently have a Tier 4 (General) student visa.
To extend your visa you must:
be in the UK on a Student visa or a Tier 4 (General) student visa · have an unconditional offer of a place on a course with a licensed student sponsor – shown by your Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS)
show that your studies are at a higher academic level than your current course (called the ‘academic progress requirement’) – there are some exceptions
If you’ve been in the UK with a valid visa for less than 12 months, you’ll need to prove you have enough money to support yourself in the UK.
Apply to extend your dependants’ visas at the same time as you extend your own visa. If you cannot apply at the same time, your partner or child can extend their visas at a later date – this must be before their current visa expires.
