INFORMATION FOR STUDENTS WHO NEED A SHORT TERM STUDY VISA TO STUDY ENGLISH IN ENGLAND.


This information is for students who need a visa to enter the UK to study English.
English Language House is an accredited institution and s
tudents can join one of our English courses and study for up to 11 months with a short-term study visa.   

Most international students need a student visa to study in the UK. To find out if you need a visa to study you can check the UK government website. Your visa will allow you to live and study in the UK for the duration of your course.

  • Visitor Route
If you want to study in the UK for less than six months, you can do this at an accredited institution as a visitor. Many students (including those from the European Union and other eligible countries) won’t need a visa for courses lasting less than six months.
Students from some countries will need to apply for a standard visitor visa to do a short course in the UK. Check if you need a visa to study in the UK.
If someone you know is coming to visit you on holiday to the UK, they may need to apply for a visitor visa. Find out more about a visitor visa.
  • Short-term Student Route
Short-term student visas are available to students who want to study English language courses that are between six and 11 months long at an accredited institution. Find out more about the short-term study visa.
  • Child Student Route
If you're aged between four and 17 years old, you can apply for a child student visa to study at a school in the UK. Find out more about child study visas.

English Language House can provide you with visa support documentation so you can apply for your visa to enter the UK to study an English language course.
If you want to study English with us please read the information about
how to join our English courses and complete the:
  • Registration form
  • level test and  
  • visa form 
so that we can process your application to study with us with a visa.
We will then email you to let you know if your application to study with us was successful and what you need to do next.
We will issue you with your visa support documentation after you have made the required payments. 

After we receive the above forms we may contact you and arrange to speak to you via Zoom. We may also ask to see one or more of the following:

  • A copy of your passport showing your photograph, your name, your nationality, your date of birth and your passport number clearly.
 
  • Evidence that you have enough money to pay for your accommodation and living costs while you are studying in the UK. We may need to see recent bank statements showing that you have enough money to pay for your studies and all your living expenses while you are in the UK. If someone else is paying for you, we may ask to see evidence that they have money to pay for you, evidence of their relationship to you and we may also ask them to send us a signed document saying why and how they intend to support you financially during your studies. 
 
  • Evidence that you are a genuine student. You may need to explain to us why you want to travel to the UK to study English. If you studied English before, where you studied, how long you studied for, why you think it is better to come to the UK to improve your English, what you intend to do after you finish your English course etc  If you are studying at the moment, where you are studying, what course you are studying, how long the course is that you are studying for, what year you are in, (1st year, 2nd year etc) when you will complete the course you are studying at the moment, how an English course will help etc. If you are working at the moment, where are you working, what is your job, how long have you been working there, does your boss think it is a good idea for you to learn English and why, when will you complete your English course in the UK will you return to your job, how do you think an English course help you in your job.
 
  • Evidence to show that you are studying/working at the moment and that you have a job or course in your country to return to after you finish your English course in the UK. This evidence may be eg a document from your University to say that you are studying and that they will allow you to return to continue to study after you finish your English course or a document from your boss to say that you are working at the moment and that he will allow you time away from your work to study English in the UK and that he is expecting you to return to your job when you finish your English course in the UK or something else that you can scan and email us as evidence.  
 
  • If you do not have a job or a course in your country to return to when you finish your English course in the UK we may need to see evidence to show why you will need to return to your country at the end of your English course. This evidence may be a scanned and emailed document showing you have family that you will need to return to, a job that is waiting for you when you return to your country or something else that you can scan and email us as evidence.      


ABOUT ENGLISH LANGUAGE HOUSE

English Language House has Accreditation UK and can therefore accept students who need a short term study visa to study English Language for up to 11 months in the UK. 

IT IS IMPORTANT TO NOTE THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION FROM THE HOME OFFICE WEBSITE:

“The burden of proof lies with the applicant. This is implicit in the various sections of the Rules which state that entry clearance may be granted ‘… provided the Immigration Officer (read ECO) is satisfied that each of the requirements (of the relevant Rules) is met’.
If the applicant does not produce evidence, or the evidence produced is inadequate to show that he / she fulfils the qualifying requirements of a category in the Rules, then a refusal will usually be appropriate.
If however the ECO supports a decision to refuse with evidence or allegations which cannot be substantiated or clearly accepted as reliable, a court / adjudicator could decide that the burden of proof fell on the ECO to justify the refusal.
Provided that the evidence used by the ECO to justify a refusal is factual and clear and it is relevant to the Rules applying to the application, the burden of proof will remain with an applicant. For example, if an applicant in the past had had to rely on public funds in the UK or had a poor immigration record, the evidence would be based on facts. The burden of proof would not be on the ECO.” 

This means that you must provide proof or evidence to support your application otherwise the ECO may reject your visa application. 


WE RECOMMEND THAT: 


  • You take out travel and/or study insurance to cover yourself during your trip and stay in UK.
  • You have medical insurance that will cover your medical bills if you need medical attention while in UK.
  • You read through the British Council Guide before you travel to the UK. It gives you very valuable information about how you can “stay safe in the UK” and much more.​
