What is the significance of engineering score and gaps in education while taking admission for MS in UK?

Hi...

1. 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. Once you accept the offer (and pay any required deposit), the institution will provide you with a unique Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS) reference number. This number is essential for your visa application and is valid for six months.
2. 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.
3. Complete the Online Application and Pay Fees
   Apply for the Student visa online through the official UK government website.
   • Visa fee: The application fee is £524.
   • Immigration Health Surcharge (IHS): You must pay this as part of your application to access the UK's National Health Service (NHS). The student rate is currently £776 per year of your course duration.
4. Book and Attend Biometrics Appointment
   After submitting your online application and paying the fees, you will be directed to book an appointment at a local 
   VFS Global Visa Application Centre (VAC)
   . At the appointment, you will:
   • Submit your supporting documents (originals and copies).
   • Have your fingerprints and photograph (biometric information) taken.
   • May be required to attend a short "credibility interview" to confirm your intentions to study in the UK.
5. Receive a Decision and eVisa Access
   You will typically receive a decision within 3 weeks if applying from outside the UK. If successful, you will receive an email notification and instructions on how to access your digital immigration status (eVisa) by creating a UKVI account. You must access your eVisa before travelling to the UK.
