You must clearly indicate your funding source in your UK Student Visa application.

- Official sponsorship (scholarship or organization): Provide a sponsorship letter on official letterhead, stating your name, the exact amount covered (or confirmation of full coverage), duration, and the organization’s stamp and signature.
- Education loan: Submit official loan documents from a government, regulated lender, or student loan company, showing the amount, terms, and your name.
- Personal or family funds: Include recent bank statements with your name and sufficient funds. If using family funds, add a letter from your sponsor (parent/guardian) confirming their relationship and consent.

All documents must be in English or have a certified translation. Use recent documents showing your name and the specific amounts. If you need help preparing your financial documents, contact your LeapScholar counsellor.
