Yes, you can use references from freelancing companies to explain your professional gap. Detailed references that include the nature of your work, your role, and the duration will help demonstrate your experience during this time. This documentation will strengthen your UK student visa application by showing your continuous professional engagement. If you need help preparing these documents, please connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
