How do I apply for a visa?

You will need a visa to study in the UK if you:

• are not an EEA national
• are stateless (you don't have a nationality)
• hold a non-national travel document, or
• hold a passport issued by an authority that is not recognised in the UK.

If you do not intend to work or stay in the UK for more than six months, you might wish to consider entering as a student visitor.

You will have to fulfil all of the conditions of our formal offer before we can issue a firm letter of acceptance. Only then can you apply for a student visa at the relevant British Embassy or British High Commission.

To qualify to travel to the UK as a student you must be able to show that you are going to follow:

• a recognised full-time degree course, or
• a period of study and/or research in excess of 6 months where this forms part of an overseas degree course, or
• a course run during the week involving at least 15 hours of organised daytime study each week, or
• a full-time course at an independent fee-paying school.
