The UK Student Visa allows international students to study at UK institutions that hold a student sponsor licence. Whether you’re applying for the first time or need help extending your current visa, Right Law Solicitors provides end-to-end legal support — from checking CAS and financial eligibility to preparing strong applications that meet Home Office requirements.
We assist students, dependants, and institutions, helping ensure timely decisions, compliance with immigration rules, and peace of mind for your future in the UK.
What Is the UK Student Visa?
The Student Visa (formerly Tier 4 General) allows non-UK nationals to:
- Study a full-time or part-time course at an approved UK educational provider
- Work part-time during term time and full-time during holidays (in most cases)
- Bring eligible dependants if studying a postgraduate or government-sponsored course
- Travel in and out of the UK freely
- Apply for extensions or switch to a Graduate Visa or Skilled Worker Visa
The visa is usually granted for the length of the course + additional time before and after.
Who Can Apply?
To qualify for a UK Student Visa, you must:
- Hold a Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS) from a licensed UK sponsor
- Be aged 16 or over
- Demonstrate financial readiness (tuition + living costs)
- Meet the English language requirement
- Prove you are a genuine student
We support first-time applicants, rejections, switching visas, and extension applications.
