If we apply for five universities, can we apply to more later or change universities in UK?

Yes, you can apply to more universities or change your university choices after your initial applications, but this depends on university deadlines and your visa process stage.

- Before deadlines: You can apply to additional universities as long as their application deadlines have not passed.
- After receiving a CAS (Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies) or applying for a UK student visa: Changing universities becomes more complex. The CAS is specific to one university and course, so switching may require a new CAS and possibly a new visa application.

If you need to change universities after starting the visa process, contact the international student offices involved for guidance.
