Student Visa


Student visa is who intend to study at a UK institution on a full time course. The student visa is flexible to apply to both short and long term courses.
Usually student visas would be granted for courses of at least six months in length but it is possible to obtain a visa for a shorter course. The student must be able to maintain and accommodate themselves while they are studying and show that they are able to pay their course fees.
The student visa service in itself does not constitute a route to settlement, it does not confer indefinite leave to remain in the UK (ILR) often known as permanent residence and it will not lead to the opportunity to become a UK Citizen through British Naturalization. However, a visa for student immigration may allow you to switch to another UK immigration service without leaving the country, upon the successful completion of your course.
Your course of study lasts less than six months, you may be able to ether the country under a UK visit visa, often referred to as a travel visa or tourist visa. However, the benefit of studying in the UK under a visa for students is that you will also be permitted to undertake limited employment with over 330,000 International students during the 2005/2006 school year, the UK is the second most popular destination for international for English-Language instruction and the post-9/11 visa hurdles in the US.
