Tuition Fees

When applying for your visa, you only need to show funds for the first year of your course. If you have not paid any of your tuition fees, you will need to show that you have held the full amount in your bank account for 28 consecutive days from the closing balance of your bank statement. If you have paid some of your tuition fees this will show on your CAS statement and you will only need to show the remaining amount of fees that you have to pay (If you have paid some of your fees and this is not shown on your CAS, reply to the emailed CAS statement to get this corrected before applying for your visa).

Postgraduate Research Funding

There are a number of sources of funding available for Postgraduate Research students. There are Government-backed schemes such as the Professional and Career Development Loans (PCDL) and many private providers offer loans to students that help to contribute towards tuition fees and living costs whilst studying. We would always encourage students to research the full range of options for funding, and ensure that they are completely clear about what they are signing up for before they commit.

Sources of funding that might be worth investigating include:

• www.gov.uk/funding-for-postgraduate-study
• www.scholarship-search.org.uk
• www.postgraduatestudentships.co.uk
• www.prospects.ac.uk/funding_my_further_study
• www.turn2us.org.uk
• www.grantsforindividuals.org.uk
• www.dsc.org.uk/FundingWebsites
• www.gradfunding.co.uk

Professional and Career Development Loans (PCDL) are bank loans to pay for courses and training that help with your career or help get you into work. You may be able to borrow between £300 and £10,000. Loans are usually offered at a reduced interest rate and the government pays interest while you’re studying.

Providers, such as Future Finance, offer loans to cover tuition fees and costs of living, with variable interest rates depending on your credit history. Loans generally have arrangement fees and may require a guarantor. Repayments may start before you have graduated from your course and, where this is the case, you must ensure that you are able to meet the loan repayments in addition to meeting all of your other course and living costs.

In relation to loans, Admissions Gateway does not endorse or recommend any particular companies or products, and it is important to check all details and terms and conditions before applying for or taking out a loan, ensuring that you are aware of repayment schedules, and interest rates and other charges that might be applied.

Living cost

You must have a fixed amount of money to cover your living costs. If you will be studying inside London* you will need £1,265 for each month of your course, up to a maximum of nine months which will be accounted for £11,385. This means that if you will be studying in inner London for a course that lasts one month only, the minimum amount that you will need is £1,265.

If you will be studying elsewhere(outside London) in the UK, the monthly amounts are lower: you need to have £1,015 for each month of your course, up to a maximum of £9,135 for a course lasting nine months or more.

The money must have been in the account for a minimum period of 28 consecutive days up to the date of the closing balance. The account must not have dropped below the amount required at any time during the 28 day period. Also, the final date of this 28 day period must not be more than 31 days before the immigration application is made.

If you are applying with dependents, Each dependant must have a certain amount of money, held in a bank or building society account, or an account with an officially regulated financial institution. All dependants will need to have evidence of this, and in most cases, your dependent must produce this evidence with their immigration application. The amount of money that each dependant must show is as follows:

• If you will be studying in London, each dependant must show £845 for each month of immigration permission you have been granted (if your dependents are applying after you have received your permission) or will be granted (if your dependents are applying at the same time as you). This is up to a maximum of 9 months (therefore, a maximum figure of £7,605)
• If you will study somewhere other than London, each dependant must show £680 for each month of immigration permission you have been granted (if your dependents are applying after you have received your permission) or will be granted (if your dependents are applying at the same time as you). This is up to a maximum of 9 months (therefore, a maximum figure of £6,120).

* Inside London is defined as the following London boroughs: Camden; City of London; Hackney; Hammersmith and Fulham; Haringey; Islington; Kensington and Chelsea; Lambeth; Lewisham; Newham; Southwark; Tower Hamlets; Wandsworth; Westminster. You can check which borough your institution is in by entering the postcode of the main study address at www.aboutmyvote.co.uk. If your institution is not in one of the boroughs listed were, then you will be studying in outer London or elsewhere in the UK.

*Pieces of information are collected from UKCISA official website

How you apply depends on the country you are applying from and where your visa application will be processed. The following sections explain how to apply from both inside and outside the UK.

• We strongly recommend having a photocopy of all documents before you apply for a visa
• You can apply up to three months before the start date of your program. This is the earliest that you can apply (you can apply later). It currently costs about £310 to apply for a Tier-4 visa outside the UK, £422 within the UK standard method and £822 within the UK premium method
• Apply for a Tier-4 student visa – make sure you provide all evidence that is required for your application– including your CAS statement (Maintenance fund and English language test certificate if you need).

The immigration health surcharge is a financial contribution to the UK’s National Health Service. You will pay the surcharge if you are a non-EEA national and you are granted immigration permission to enter the UK to study for a time-limited period of more than six months. You will also need to pay it if you are a non- EEA national who is already in the UK and you wish to apply to extend your stay. You will pay the charge when you make your application. The charge is applied to immigration applications made on or after 6 April 2015. The cost is £300 per year for a student or Tier 5 (Youth Mobility Scheme) visa, for example £600 for a 2-year visa. Further information is available on the Home Office pages of the Gov.

To make an adjustment with the United Kingdom social-economic life you may require opening a bank account with the regulatory financial institute. If you have a bank account could make your life easier to pay any online payment or shopping.

If you are going to be studying in the UK for a while, you will need to open a bank account. You should do this as soon as possible, ideally with a bank on campus or nearby. Many banks offer special student facilities and have financial advisers to help you organise your account.

When you open your international student bank account you will need:

• your passport
• a letter of acceptance from your place of study
• proof of your address at home and in the UK
• reference and statements from your home bank

Most banks in the UK are open from 9 am to 5 pm Monday to Friday, with some open on Saturday mornings. If you have a debit or credit visa card for your account you can use a cash machine 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Many banks in the UK also offer online banking which you may prefer to use. But if you have a debit card you may use for any type of transaction anywhere.

Before travelling to the UK

Ask your college or university what your options are for paying fees, so you´ll know what facilities you´ll need. You should then contact your bank at home and ask:

• how you should transfer your money to the UK
• about running a bank account in the UK
• whether your bank has a special relationship with any UK banks
• whether you can use cash cards from your home bank in cash machines in the UK

Managing your international student bank account

It is important not to overspend on your account, as your bank will charge you if you go overdrawn. If you think you need more money than you have in your account, speak to your bank´s student adviser about arranging an overdraft. If you need more support to open a bank account please contact one of our special advisers.
