If my visa gets rejected after paying the deposit, will the entire deposit amount be refunded in UK?

It depends on your university’s refund policy. Most UK universities will refund your deposit if you provide an official visa refusal letter, but some may deduct an administrative fee.
If the visa was refused due to fraudulent documents or misleading information, the deposit is usually not refunded. The exact amount refunded - full, partial, or none - varies by institution.
Visa refused? You can still make the next intake.
