ACCOMMODATION: 

We understand that effective language learning depends on many external things, not least the comfort of the student's accommodation and the friendliness of the host. For this reason, many of our students are placed with local English speaking HOST-FAMILIES  who we have selected with care by our experienced accommodation officers. 

BENEFITS OF STAYING WITH A HOST FAMILY:

• Experiencing the “British Way of life” within an English family and English culture.
• Having the opportunity to apply their English in a safe, natural and friendly environment.
• Being encouraged to continue using their English after class has finished.
• Being continuously integrated into a completely English speaking environment.
• Being treated as a member of the English family.
• Staying with a host family provides the opportunity to make lifelong international friendships.

As an alternative to homestay accommodation, many of our students prefer to choose a RESIDENTIAL option. We offer many residences in London - all within easy travelling distance of Central London. All are close to our English Centre in London, and open throughout the year

Short-term Visa for the UK

You will need a visa to study in the UK. 
*If you want to study for less than 6 months you can apply for a Short-term Study Visa. 
*If you want to study for longer than 6 months but less that 11 months, you can apply for the new Extended Student Visitor Visa. 
*If you want to study for more than 11 months you need a Student Visa (former Tier 4 General Student Visa).

Student Visa (this visa has replaced the Tier 4 General student visa)

Details are HERE

With this visa you can stay for more than 6 months. 
You can extend a General Student Visa  in the UK.
The decision to give you a visa depends on the number of points you have. You need a total of 40 points to get a visa.
You get points for the following: CAS (Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies) Number = 30 points and Enough money = 10 points.

CAS Number.  A CAS number is provided by a sponsor. In the case of a General Student Visa this is the School. If you are applying for a general student visa you will need a CAS. We will give you this when you have booked and paid for your course.

Money.  if this is your initial application, you need enough money in your account to cover your living expenses in London for 9 months (If you will be studying in inner London) or for the length of your course (if it's shorter than 9 months). You need to have £1,334 for each month. Therefore if your course lasts for nine months or more you will have to show minimum £12,006. This money must be in your account for at least 28 days before you apply for your Tier 4 visa. 

Note: If you will be studying elsewhere in the UK, the monthly amounts are lower: £1,023 per month.  Therefore if your course lasts for nine months or more you will have to show £9,207.
