Choosing your course and getting your Student Visa
Of course the process has to start with choosing your course and ensuring that you can apply for, and obtain, your relevant student visa for that course.

(If you are engaging a private Training Provider for a training course, please also see our Training and Work Experience page).

There has been much work done by the Government to stop misuse of courses and student visas to gain entry to the UK under false pretences.

It is now mandatory that you choose your course only from Institutions that appear on the official Register of Education and Training Providers list as published by the Department for Education and Skills.

Currently our rates for student applications are substantially discounted. You need to get this right.

If you would like us to help you with gaining a student visa then please contact us. So you have to have been accepted for a course of study at one of the above institutions which include:

* a publicly funded institution of further or higher education
* a bona fide private education institution which maintains satisfactory records of enrolment and attendance
* an independent fee paying school outside the maintained sector

Or you are able and intend to follow either:

* a recognised full time degree course at a publicly funded institution of further or higher education
* a weekday full time course involving attendance at a single institution for a minimum of 15 hours organised daytime study per week of a single subject, or directly related subjects
* a full time course of study at an independent fee paying school

Or you are under the age of 16 years and enrolled at an independent fee paying school on a full time course of studies which meets the requirements of the Education Act 1944.

* You must intend to leave the United Kingdom at the end of your studies.
* You must not intend to engage in business or to take employment, except part time or vacation work undertaken with the consent of the Secretary of State for Employment, whilst studying [see section 2 below].
* You must be able to meet the costs of the course and accommodation and the maintenance of yourself and any dependants without taking employment or engaging in business or having recourse to public funds.

Students are allowed to bring their family with them to the UK while they study.
