What documents do I need to provide for the application, such as semester mark sheets, degree certificate, and passport in UK?

You’ll need to provide these key documents for your UK student visa application:

- Valid passport (must cover your entire stay)
- CAS (Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies) from your UK university
- Academic documents: bachelor’s degree certificate and all semester/year mark sheets; 10th and 12th-grade certificates
- English language proficiency proof (such as IELTS, if required by your university)
- Financial evidence: recent bank statements, education loan sanction letter, or scholarship award letter, showing you can cover tuition and living costs
- TB (tuberculosis) test certificate from an approved clinic (required for Indian students)
- Immigration Health Surcharge (IHS) payment confirmation
- Visa application fee payment receipt
- Passport-sized photographs (as per UK specifications)
- Parental consent letter (if under 18)
- ATAS certificate (only for certain sensitive courses)
- Sponsorship letter (if applicable)

All documents not in English must have certified translations. Make sure details match across all documents to avoid delays.

If you need help gathering or preparing these documents, contact your LeapScholar counsellor.
