Welcome to the webpages for international
applicants, and students, about immigration in the UK.
* All non-European Union nationals holding offers to study
in the UK are strongly advised to apply for a Student Visa
for the duration of their course. The time this may take
can vary so we suggest you make applying for one a priority.
You should also be aware that this year the Government is
introducing a new points based system for visa applications,
which may increase the time it takes to receive your visa.
For more information about this visit http://www.bia.homeoffice.gov.uk.
British Council offices worldwide and British High Commissions
and Embassies, as well as their local agents, can assist
you in preparing your student visa application. Find your
nearest British High Commission
These pages will be updated regularly
– please check back often for updates and changes
to immigration policy and rules.
