How to Book Your Accommodation
If you are under 18, you will receive an invitation to apply for accommodation once you confirm your place, provided there is availability in our student accommodation. If you request accommodation when applying to the International Study Centre, the Central Student Support team will provide you with up-to-date information on available options and fees.

We recommend applying as early as possible to increase your chances of securing a room that suits you. Accommodation is allocated on a first-come, first-served basis, so please contact us to check availability.

Your Next Steps for Booking Your Room
It’s essential to arrange your accommodation before arriving in the UK. Doing so will give you peace of mind and ensure there are no issues when confirming your course at immigration or police registration (if required).

  1. Request accommodation when you apply to the International Study Centre.
  2. Confirm your place at the International Study Centre.
  3. The Central Student Support team will then contact you with information about the next steps for booking your accommodation. If you applied directly via our online application form, your Student Enrolment Advisor will assist with any questions regarding accommodation options, available facilities, and what to bring.

Please note that accommodation availability may depend on your study start date. Once you’ve confirmed your place and indicated your interest in accommodation on your application, we will contact you with details of available residences.

Visa Applications and Credibility Interviews
To study at the University of Huddersfield International Study Centre, you will need a Student visa (previously known as a Tier 4 visa).

Will I Be Eligible for a Student Visa?
There are four key requirements for those wishing to study in the UK:

  1. You must have been offered a place on a course.
  2. You must have received a CAS (Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies) from our Admissions team.
  3. You must be able to speak, read, write, and understand English.
  4. You must have sufficient funds to support yourself and pay for your course.

What is a CAS and Why is it Important?
A Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS) is a unique reference number that confirms your acceptance onto a course in the UK. You need a CAS number to apply for a Student visa.

If you are outside the UK, you can receive your CAS up to 6 months before your course start date, and if you're in the UK, you can receive it up to 3 months before the start date.

When Should I Apply for a Visa?
It’s important to apply early to ensure you allow enough time for your visa application to be processed.

The Visa Process
To apply for your visa, follow these steps:

  1. Apply for your chosen programme at the University of Huddersfield International Study Centre and receive an offer.
  2. Submit the required documents to be reviewed by the Admissions team or your Student Enrolment Advisor.
  3. Pay your deposit and CAS payment.
  4. Once your payment is received, your CAS will be issued, enabling you to apply for your visa.
  5. You may be invited to attend a credibility interview.
  6. UK Visas and Immigration (UKVI) will contact you with the outcome of your visa application.

Integrated CAS (iCAS) for Integrated Programmes
Students applying for one of our integrated programmes will receive an Integrated CAS (iCAS), which includes visa sponsorship from the University for the entire duration of the programme. This means you will only need to apply for one visa to study in the UK, saving both time and money, as you won’t need to apply for a new visa when progressing to your degree course.

Please note that the International Foundation Year programme is offered on a Study Group CAS.
