A student visa applicant must ensure they have 40 points which is made up of 10 points for funds, and 30 points for a valid Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS).
Eligibility
Under Student Tier 4 Visa category, students applying for their entry clearance or visa from the Home Office must show that they have a CAS from a licensed sponsor, but they must also meet a number of general requirements and restrictions such as:
- Age
- Security clearance
- Maximum time limits for studying in the UK
- Specific requirements for postgraduate doctors or dentists on a recognised Foundation programme
- For those individuals being sponsored by a Government or international Scholarship agency
- Interview with Entry Clearance Officers
Therefore, if you are 16 years or older and intend on remaining in the UK for a duration longer than 6 months contact us for one of our specialist student immigration lawyers to consider your case and advice you accordingly.
Dependants
You will be able to bring your dependant to the UK if you are a student on a Tier 4 Visa, as long as you can show that you can support them financially without recourse to public funds.
Extensions

Thank you for your enquiry. If you do not successfully complete your current course, then you will be required to leave the UK and apply for the start-up visa from outside the UK. If you wish to discuss the start-up visa, we can go through the requirements with you in details and advise you on the process and procedure. We would recommend a consultation to discuss other options that may also be available to you. We look forward to hearing from you.
