To study in the UK, you’ll need to meet certain immigration requirements, including applying for a Student visa. This process can be complex, but don’t worry—we’ve provided all the information you need. Plus, our dedicated support team is here to guide you through your application.
When should I apply for my visa?
Before applying for your visa, you must receive a CAS from us. The first step is to start your application. Find out how to apply here .
Once you have your CAS, you’ll be ready to apply for your visa. Please refer to the following guidance to support you through the process.
Visa application guide
This guidance will help you apply for your visa to study in the UK. We hope it provides all the information you need to make the process as smooth as possible. However, our team will be on hand throughout your visa application journey to assist with any queries you may have.
Credibility Interviews
As part of the Student visa process, the Home Office/UKVI will assess whether a student is genuine before granting a Student visa. The interview selection process is random, so being called for an interview does not mean there is anything wrong with your application. This page provides useful tips on what to expect.
Your Responsibilities as a Visa Holder
As a Student visa holder, you will have certain responsibilities to maintain your visa throughout your studies. Likewise, as a Student visa sponsor, Arden University also has obligations to fulfil. By working together and understanding these responsibilities, both you and the University can ensure your visa status remains secure throughout your student journey.
