3. Prepare your visa application documents

If you need a visa to study with us, you should be ready to make an upfront payment toward tuition fees and provide financial evidence documents in line with UKVI requirements, along with a TB certificate (where required).

Please refer to the UK government's website to see if you will need to show financial evidence or get a TB certificate for your visa application. If you are required to show these documents, we will review them as part of the CAS request process. 

  • Have a look at our Student Visa guide (pdf, 8.19mb) for more information on documents you need to apply for a visa.
