Visa Information

International Students (outside the EU) must obtain a visa before making travel arrangements to travel in the UK. To make an application for a visa you must:

• Pay the required deposit declared on your offer letter.
• Obtain a Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS) number from HIBT.
• Have the required funds (GBP5400 for living expenses + the first year fees minus any deposit paid) in a bank account in your name for 28 days prior to visa application. PLEASE DO THIS NOW if you wish to arrive within the next 4 months.

You will also need to show the following to HIBT and be prepared to show it to an officer of the UK Border Agency at the airport on arrival.

• Proof of accommodation in the UK which could be in the form of an accommodation letter, confirming your place in the halls of residence, or a letter from a sponsor identifying your proposed address if you are opting to live with a relative or family friends.

Employment whilst studying

Due to the intensive nature of British courses, there is often little time for work whilst studying. However, students are able to obtain part-time employment for a maximum of 10 hours per week on Foundation courses and 20 hours a week on Degree level courses.

Students are also entitled to work full-time during the holidays. International Students at UK institutions who are not nationals of a European Economic Area (EEA) country are no longer required to obtain permission from the Job Centre to take spare time and vacation work.
