Are there any problems or restrictions with agencies for UK or Dubai study visas?
18 Jun 2026 · Answered by Sai Sunayan Reddy P · 1 min read
You can use agencies for UK and Dubai study visas, but there are important restrictions.
- UK: You may use an agency, but it must be registered with the Office of the Immigration Services Commissioner (OISC) or a recognized professional body. Using unregistered agents can risk your visa application.
- Dubai: Student visas are usually processed directly by the university or college. Agencies may offer help, but always coordinate with your institution to avoid delays or issues.
Always verify an agency’s credentials before proceeding. If you need help choosing a reliable agency, contact your LeapScholar counsellor.
