Visa Information
How to get a VISA?

Please make sure that your passport is valid and that you have a visa (if you need one) prior to your travel date. It is best to have a passport that is valid for the entire duration of your stay in London in order to avoid having to renew your passport at the embassy. If you are not sure whether you need a visa please check with your local British embassy or view http://www.ukvisas.gov.uk

Immigration officers will check that you are a serious student they will look carefully at all your documentation. They will also want to ensure that you have sufficient funds to support yourself during your stay here without a need to work.

You will need to present your documentation from the school and information about your accommodation in London on the arrival. Nationals from certain countries will require entry clearance prior to travelling to the UK

Police Registration
Students from the European Community need not register with the police. All other students staying in the UK for over six months must register with Borough Police Station at:

Ground floor, Brandon house
180 Borough High St
London SE1 1LH
Tel: 020 7230 1208

Embassy Registration
It is a good idea to register with your embassy in case you lose your passport or have an accident. We have all the embassy addresses at hand so please ask anyone in the office for help.
