You’ll need these key documents for your UK Student visa application:
- Valid passport for the full duration of your stay
- Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS) from your UK university
- Proof of funds showing you can cover tuition and living expenses (current minimum: £1,334/month in London, £1,023/month outside London; subject to change)
- English language proficiency evidence (such as IELTS for UKVI or PTE Academic for UKVI; TOEFL is not accepted)
