How many months is UK Student visa?
The duration of a UK student visa can vary depending on the length of the course you are enrolled in:
- Short-term study visa: This visa allows you to study a short course in the UK for up to 6 months (or 11 months for an English language course).
- Tier 4 (General) student visa: If you are studying a degree-level course or above, the duration of your visa will typically match the length of your course, up to a maximum of 5 years. Additionally, you may be granted additional time before and after your course for orientation and to prepare to leave the UK, respectively.
It’s important to note that the duration of the visa will be specified on the visa vignette (sticker) in your passport, and you must leave the UK before the visa expires unless you have applied for and been granted an extension.
