Key facts from GOV.UK
- You usually need a place on a course with a licensed student sponsor, a confirmation of acceptance for studies (CAS), enough money to support yourself, and to meet the English language requirement.
- The Graduate visa may let you stay in the UK after your studies if you meet its requirements.
- Switching to a work visa from a student visa has its own rules. Check GOV.UK before you act.
