The UK student visa process involves several steps. First, secure admission to a licensed Tier 4 sponsor institution. Then, apply online for a Tier 4 (General) student visa, providing proof of acceptance, financial stability, and English proficiency.
Required documents include a valid passport, CAS statement, tuberculosis test results (if applicable), and evidence of funds covering tuition and living costs. You may also need an ATAS certificate for certain courses.
Applications typically take 3 weeks to process. A healthcare surcharge is mandatory for access to the NHS. Ensure all information is accurate to avoid delays or rejection.
