Visa application

Once you have met all of our academic and financial entry conditions we will issue you with your visa letter/CAS. You now need to ensure that you have all of the other required visa paperwork in order so that you can apply for your visa. For more information click here

You will either need to apply for a  Student Visa or a Short-term study visa, which depends on the length of your stay in the UK, detailed below:

Student Visa

If you are coming to study in the UK on a course longer than 6 months, that is not solely an English Language course, you will need to apply for this visa.

The conditional offer letter that we send you will indicate whether you should apply for this visa and once you have met all of our conditions, you will be issued with a Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies or CAS.

Short-term Study visa

If you are coming to study at WCUC for 6 months or less, or you are studying English for up to 11 months, you will apply for the Short -Term Study Visa or STS. Again your offer letter will confirm whether you need to apply for this visa and when you have met all of our conditions, we will send you a visa letter to support your application.

To find out more about how to apply click here for the Student Visa and here for the Short-term Study visa.

But if you have any queries please do not hesitate to contact one of our advisers at international@wcuc.ac.uk.

When you have been granted your visa you must let us know your travel arrangements so we can make sure we are ready to welcome you to WCUC.
