    What is a Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS)?


    The CAS is not an actual certificate. Each CAS has a unique reference number and contains
    information about the course of study for which it has been issued and the student’s personal
    details. You must be in possession of a CAS before you apply for your UK Student Visa.

    Who will send out my CAS?


    The Admissions team will issue your CAS. Please note that your CAS is unique to you, UWS and your
    visa application. It is important and must be kept safely and used to apply for your UK student visa.

    When will I receive my CAS?


    Your CAS will be issued when you have met all of the conditions of your offer and meet all UK Visa
    & Immigration requirements. Please note that if you are currently living overseas you can apply
    for your visa within 6 months of the course start date. If you are currently living in the UK you can
    apply for your visa within 3 months of the course start date. If you provide all of the required
    documentation the university will issue you with your CAS.

    When is the latest date I can receive my CAS?


    For out of the UK applicants the deadline is 4 weeks before course start date. For applicants in the
    UK the deadline is 1 week after enrolment commences. Please note visa processing times may vary
    from country to country, especially during peak times.

    and £1,334 for each month of the course (up to a maximum of 9 months).

    research courses).

    How long do the funds for my living costs need to be held in my bank account?
    International students must show that they have held the required amount of money in their
    bank for a period of 28 consecutive days. Bank statement must be dated within 1 month of visa
    application. Bank statement has to be on official letterhead or bear company stamp.

    Can I use my parent(s)/legal guardian(s) as a financial sponsor?
