Student Visas
Student Visas
This category opened on 5 October 2020. Applicants are required to demonstrate that they have an offer to enrol into a degree program from an approved educational institution, speak English, and are able to support themselves for the duration of their course in the UK.
Applicants are able to submit their applications up to six months before the start of their course and evidentiary requirements have been relaxed. Under this new route, there is no longer a time limit on the length of time which an individual may study at post-graduate level in the UK.
Applicants are only permitted to have dependents under this route if the applicant is studying at post-graduate level for at least nine months or if they have been sponsored by a government to study a course longer than six months.
Start Up Visa
The Start Up visa replaced the Tier 1 Graduate Entrepreneur visa scheme and is for less experienced business people. And Previously, the option to work after graduation was known as the Post-Study Worker.
To encourage individuals to create, invent, and innovate, the Start Up visa is available for those who wish to remain in the UK on an independent means, rather than employment. The Start-up route is aimed at new entrepreneurs seeking to establish a business in the UK for the first time.
