Firstly are you sure that you meet the established presence criteria?

which is that:

you have completed a course that was over 6 months long in the last 4 months

or

you are continuing on a course, and have completed at least 6 months of that course and have been studying in the last 4 months

AND

you are currently here on a student or tier 4 visa

(i.e. if you are here on a PSW visa for example you won't be treated as an established student).

If you meet this criteria then you have to show 2 months maintenance for 28 days - so £1600 (2 x £800) if you are studying in inner London.

See policy guidance:
