How do I qualify to enter the UK as a Student?
To be classified as a student for immigration purposes you must be able to show all of the following:
- You have been accepted on a course of study at a publicly funded institution of further or higher education (for example a university), a private education institution or an independent fee-paying school.
- You are going to follow a recognised full-time degree course, a course run during the week that involves at least 15 hours of organised day-time study per week, or a full-time course of study at an independent fee-paying school.
- You are able to pay for your course and support and accommodate yourself and any dependants without working or help from public funds.
- You plan to leave the UK when you complete your studies.
If you are a visa national, you will need a visa to enter the UK. If you are not a visa national, you will find it helpful to carry documents with you which will show immigration officers that you meet the requirements for entering the UK as a student.
