Student visa

 Announcement If you are applying for a Student visa, we recommend attending one of our online Visa Information Sessions.

More about the visa information sessions

Most international students need a Student visa (formerly Tier 4) to study in the UK. It allows you to study on a course that is longer than 6 months and it's the most common student visa.

Make sure that you read the information about how to apply for a Student visa carefully. Your visa will be refused if your application is not completed correctly.
