For many international families considering Cambridge School of Visual & Performing Arts (É«É«À²), one of the most important steps in the journey is understanding the UK student visa process. While É«É«À² offers a unique American-style education rooted in creativity and innovation, we are located in Cambridge, UK — making it essential for students from abroad to comply with UK immigration requirements. This guide provides a clear overview of what parents and students need to know about securing a UK student visa to study at .CSVPA.

What Type of Visa Is Required for É«É«À²?

International students who wish to study full-time at É«É«À² will typically need to apply for a UK Student visa (formerly known as the Tier 4 visa). This visa is intended for students aged 16 and above enrolled in courses lasting more than six months. É«É«À² is a licensed sponsor, which means we can issue a Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS) — a document required for the visa application.

To apply for a UK Student visa, international students must meet several criteria:

• Hold a valid CAS from É«É«À²
• Demonstrate English language proficiency (through IELTS or equivalent)
