Student Visa
The British Department of Immigration requires students to
show that they are going to follow a course run during the
week involving at least 15 hours of organised daytime study
each week. You must also be able to pay for your course and
support yourself during your studies. Rose of York will
provide a letter of registration to students who have paid
for the course in full. It is important to present this
letter to the proper British Embassy, Consulate or High
Commission when applying for a student visa. You will need
to fill in a form and attend an interview with the Entry
Clearance Officer. Make sure you can explain about your
financial issues. You need to prove that you have sufficient
financial resources to cover all expenses for your stay in
London. You also need to know about the course you are going
to follow and explain why you have chosen the course and how
it would benefit you in your future career. If you have any other
questions regarding your visa application, please
email us. We will try to answer all your questions.
Other Services
Opening a
Bank Account
Recent changes in banking procedures have made opening a UK
bank account difficult. Rose of York will assist eligible
students with all the advice they need on how to meet
requirements and open an account, but it is necessary to
have a student visa for at least six months.
Social Activities
Throughout the year Rose of York organise many optional
trips and sightseeing tours on which the teachers accompany
the students. Meals in London's restaurants and trips to
English pubs are frequent events and an ideal way to
practice the English you have learnt.
