How to join and study a university in UK

 Documents needed

  1. Get a transcript of your marksheet
  2. Get SOP ( Statement of purpose )
  3.  Get LOR ( Letter of recommendation ) from your Indian university if applicable employer
  4. Get IELTS score


Process:

  • Look for good colleges (https://russellgroup.ac.uk/about/our-universities/) and apply with the above documents and you would get a response in weeks. 
  • If it's a positive response, they'd offer conditional offer letter 
  • With that they would ask list of other documents and initial tuition fee like 2000 pound. 
  • Once you have successfully uploaded the documents and paid the initial fees they would  offer unconditional offer letter
  • With this letter you have become student of the university and you may start the visa process.
  • For visa process you can go to VFS and this will redirect to UKVisa site.
  • You will have to pay for NHS and health insurance which will be like 40k INR I heard recently it has changed to 80k INR
  • You will have to pay visa fee which would be 30k INR.
  • Then you will get visa appointment and you will have to carry all the originals for verification and they will take biometrics and issue the visa.
  • Before that you will have to show your account with 2Million INR for financial security. 
  • If you have applied for Education loan then you will have to show loan sanction letter
  • With visa one can book flight and travel to UK and you will have to collect BRP from post office within 1 or 2 weeks.

P.S

  1. In case of education loan , you may use conditional offer letter and start applying for loan with that. 
  2. If you have decided to drop off for some reason , they you may ask for initial tuition fee refund and most universities do the refund.
  3. Always choose a college which is close to a city that offers more part time jobs.
