Welcome to our international students

Effective 31 October 2024, UKVI have confirmed that Biometric Residence Permits (BRPs) will no longer be issued. New Student Visa holders will instead receive a digital immigration status called an eVisa. You can find information on how to create, view and prove your immigration status on your student visa decision letter once your application is granted. 

The expectation is that all students should be physically present on campus to attend all scheduled classes, there is no online teaching provision for Student visa holders, and your attendance will be monitored. 

For those needing to register with the police on arrival

The Government has decided to abolish the Police Registration Scheme. The scheme, which requires some migrants to register with the police.

On Friday 5 August 2022, the Home Office announced that it would abolish the police registration scheme for international students in the UK, with immediate effect even if your immigration documentation mentions that you must. 

If a migrant has previously registered with the police, they do not need to do anything. 

If, prior to the scheme being abolished, you failed to register within the required timeframe, you are no longer required to register.
