Visa and Immigration
The UK Immigration system has undergone several changes in recent months and there are planned
changes ahead to the rules, policy guidance and application forms for UK Student visas. It is
therefore vital that you keep yourself informed by checking the
UK Border Agency and
Visa Services websites frequently.
If you have any questions about the above information, please contact
John Greenwood our Welfare and International Student
Advisor.
Do I need to apply for a visa?
If you are unsure about your status or whether you need a visa then you can check with the UK Visas website using the section “ Do I need a Visa?” You will also find a list of visa application centres and contact details should you wish to contact the British Embassy in your home country for more information.
Travelling through the Republic of Ireland
If you plan to travel to the UK via Ireland
, you must apply for entry clearance before you leave your home country because you
will not pass through any UK immigration points and will therefore not be able to obtain Leave to
Enter as a Student Visitor on arrival.
Once you have found out which visa you will need (by using the above links) you can find out
further information by using the appropriate tabs on this page.
