UK visa regulations: points–based system for students (Tier 4)*To be able to enter the United Kingdom to study, a prospective student must pass a points–based assessment and score 40 points to obtain a visa.

In addition, the Home Office has implemented a process whereby students may be required to attend a face–to–face ‘credibility’ interview. Each college will work with you to ensure that students are aware of and well prepared for this experience.

Prospective students will score 30 points for a CAS Statement from an approved education provider and 10 points if they can show that they have the required finances to cover course fees and monthly living expenses for up to nine months (known as maintenance).

To apply for a Tier 4 Student Visa, prospective students will need to fill in the application form, which in most cases will be online, pay the fee and provide when requested:

• A valid passport or travel document

• A CAS statement from a licensed sponsor

• Documents to show they have the right finances (maintenance) available

• Documents used by the college when they offered them a place on the programme

• Documents relating to parental authorisation should the applicant be under 18 years of age.

The UK Home Office will also need to record biometric details for prospective students.

The course also asks where threats to our society come from, and whether we can prevent them. Law regulates how we buy and sell goods and services, and how we govern ourselves.

My PUIC: Alhaji Modu Bukar, Nigeria Accounting and Finance

"PUIC is a challenging, fun

and interesting place to study

in the UK. It has given me

the opportunity to meet people

from all over the world, which

is such a unique experience. I also get to study in Plymouth,

an amazing city to be a student

in — there is always something

exciting to do and see."
