THE NEW UK STUDENT ROUTE

>> Tuesday, April 28, 2009

The new student route will dramatically simplify the immigration system for genuine students and education providers. We will replace 10 routes to the UK with just one tier. Students who would have come to the UK under the following routes will be able to apply for one of two new student visas:
  • Students
  • Sandwich Students
  • Writing Up A Thesis
  • Re-sit Of Examinations
  • Bar Students
  • Music Students
  • Pupillage
  • Welbeck College
  • Association Of American Study Abroad
  • Programmes
  • Pestalozzi Children’s Trust
The Student Tier will have two new visas:

General Student: for all those wishing to come to the UK for their post -16 education; and

Child Student: for children between the ages of 4 and 16 to come here to be educated at our independent schools.

The prospective student and student visitor routes will remain outside the points system and its sponsorship requirements. (Details of these outes are provided at paragraphs 77-80). Parent carers of children under the age of 12 attending independent schools will also continue to be provided for outside the points system. (Further details of this route are provided at paragraph 62)

General Student Point Test:

The ‘General Student’ category will encompass all post 16 education outside of independent fee paying schools and will apply to the vast majority of overseas nationals seeking to enter the UK as a student

To gain a ‘General Student’ visa, applicants will have to score points against two sets of objective criteria with an overall pass mark of 40 points:

Points under Tier 4: General Student- Pass mark 40

  • Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies -30 point
  • Maintenance and Funds Test -10 point

New Uk Student Visa: Point Based system

>> Friday, March 27, 2009

Applying for a General Student visa or a Child Student visa under Tier4 is a simple process and should be done in the country of which you are a national or a legal resident. You can apply for a visa by post, in person or online. For your application to be successful you will need:
  • A current passport or travel document;
  • A visa letter from the institution you are planning to study at;
  • Proof of maintenance funds;
  • Evidence of any qualifications the sponsoring institution took account of when deciding to accept you for the course you plan to study;
  • Any other supporting documents relevant to your application.

Under the new system, a student needs to have 40 points to qualify for the grant of the visa. A student would require an acceptance letter from the educational institution he/she intends to attend. The respective educational institution would become the sponsor for the student, who would fetch 30 points. For the remaining 10 points, a student would have to show evidence for having enough finances to cover his/her course fee and monthly living expenses for one year.


You will also need to make an appointment at your nearest visa application center to provide your biometric details (10 digit finger scans and a digital photograph) as part of the application process.

The UK Border Agency will refuse your application and you may be banned from coming to the UK for 10 years if you use a false document, lie or withhold relevant information.

Students looking to study in the UK for six months or less, and who do not wish to take any employment while they are in the UK, or to extend their stay while they are in the country, can enter the UK on a student visitor visa.
