Student Visa

Post by LoveLost » Thu Aug 12, 2010 2:01 pm

My partner is south african. He can only get a 6 month visitor visa to the UK, which is not longer enough. Is it possible to get s student visa? If so, how long will this be for and how do we go about getting it?

Why not you go to IND website and read Student Section?

Do a little research?

Yes, very possible, can be as long as the course or shorter, costs about £500, college fees about £10,000 to £20,000 a year plus maintenance.

Apply at British Embassy in SA.
