As an international student, you will need a student visa to study at the University of East London International Study Centre. This page provides all the essential information you need to navigate the visa application process smoothly. Whether you’re applying for a student visa or need guidance on creating your UKVI account, we’ve got you covered.
Before you can apply for a UK student visa, there are important steps you need to complete. One of the first is obtaining a Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS) from the UEL International Study Centre. This is a unique reference number you’ll need to include in your visa application.
Eligibility assessment:
You must complete a Pre-CAS interview to allow us to assess whether your chosen course meets the visa requirements and whether you fulfil the criteria to study in the UK.
Financial requirements:
You must demonstrate that you have enough funds to cover your tuition fees and living expenses while in the UK. The exact amount will depend on your course and location.
Academic qualifications:
Ensure that you have the necessary qualifications to meet the entry requirements for your course.
English Language proficiency:
You’ll need to prove your English language skills, either through recognised qualifications or a test approved by the UEL International Study Centre.
Once these checks are completed, the UEL International Study Centre will issue your CAS, and you can proceed to apply for your visa.
To apply for your visa, you must first create an account with the UK Visas and Immigration (UKVI) service. Once your account is set up, you’ll be able to track your visa application and manage all correspondence related to your visa process.
Go to the UKVI website to begin the account creation process.
Enter your personal details, including your full name, date of birth, nationality, and email address.
Choose a secure password to protect your account and ensure your application is safe.
Follow the instructions to verify your email address, ensuring the information is accurate.
A unique reference number from the UEL International Study Centre that confirms your place on the course.
