Your UK Student Visa — what to expect

Four phases between offer letter and boarding the flight. Your TMC counsellor owns each one — no hand-offs to a separate visa team.

01

Offer → CAS letter

After you accept your university offer and pay the deposit, the university issues the Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS) — a digital reference number that triggers your visa application. Typical timeline: 2-3 weeks. Your counsellor coordinates directly with the university's international office.

02

Financial documentation

You show approximately £12,000-13,500 per year (London) or £9,200-10,500 (outside London) for living costs, plus your first year of tuition, held in your account for 28 consecutive days. We prepare bank statements, education-loan sanction letters, and FD documentation in the UKVI-accepted formats.

03

UKVI online application + biometrics

Apply online at gov.uk, pay the £490 visa fee plus £776/year IHS (Immigration Health Surcharge for NHS access), and book biometrics at VFS Global India. We pre-fill the application with your CAS, ATAS (if applicable), and TB test certificate to avoid the common rejection causes.

04

Decision — 3 weeks priority or 8 weeks standard

UK Home Office returns the decision via VFS. Priority service (£500 extra) typically clears in 5 working days. Once approved, your vignette is stamped in your passport and you collect your BRP card on arrival in UK. We run a credibility-interview prep call and pre-departure briefing before you fly.
