Step-by-Step Application Guide

Secure an Unconditional Offer & Receive CAS
First, apply to a course at a UK university or college that is a licensed student sponsor and receive an unconditional offer.

This number is essential for your visa application and is valid for six months.
Prepare Required Documents and Funds
Gather all the necessary documentation to prove your eligibility:
- A current, valid passport.
- Your CAS number.
- Proof of funds: You must show you have enough money to cover your first year's tuition fees and living expenses. The current requirements are a minimum of £1,334 per month for courses in London and £1,023 per month for courses outside London, for up to nine months. These funds must have been held in your bank account for at least 28 consecutive days.
- English language proficiency: Evidence, usually a Secure English Language Test (SELT) like IELTS, is required, unless your university has accepted an alternative form of proof (e.g., strong English scores in high school).
- Tuberculosis (TB) test certificate: This is mandatory for applicants from many countries, including India. You must take the test at an approved clinic.
- Academic Technology Approval Scheme (ATAS) certificate: Required for certain sensitive subjects and research degrees. Your university will inform you if this is needed.
- Parental consent: If you are under 18, you will need written consent from your parents or legal guardians.

VFS Global Visa Application Centre (VAC)
. At the appointment, you will:
