Could anyone please elaborate this para from tier 4 guidance

According to point 90 from Tier 4 guidance:

90.If a student is already in the UK and his/her existing permission to stay runs out more than
one month before the start-date of his/her proposed next course of study, he/she will be
expected to return overseas and apply from outside the UK. If the applicant applies from
inside the UK, his/her application will be refused. A month will be considered a calendar
month (for example, if an applicant’s leave expires on 14 January his/her new course must
start no later than 13 February).


What I assume is that if the course is not starting within a month when the current leave is going expire, so one has to go back to the home country, and then apply from there??is that it?

I would be grateful if anyone could confirm, please..

Many Thanks!
