Key Steps to Start Your Student Visa Journey

01

Choose Your Course and University

UK institutions offer a wide range of undergraduate, postgraduate, and professional degrees. Select a course that aligns with your goals, and apply either directly through the university’s website or via UCAS (for undergraduate applicants).

02

Receive Your CAS Letter

Once accepted, the university will issue a CAS (Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies). This document contains your unique CAS number, course details, and sponsor information — and is required to start your visa application.

03

Gather and Prepare Your Documents

To apply for your visa, you’ll typically need:

CAS from a licensed university

Valid passport

Proof of funds (tuition + living costs for 9 months)

IELTS or equivalent proof of English

TB test results (for some countries)

Immigration Health Surcharge (IHS) payment

04

Apply Online for the Student Visa

You’ll complete your visa application via the official UKVI (UK Visas and Immigration) website. You’ll also pay the IHS and visa fee as part of the process.

05

Attend Your Biometrics Appointment

Schedule a biometrics appointment at a visa application center. After submission, most students receive a decision within 3–4 weeks, though this can vary by country.
