You will also need to prove that you have enough money to pay for your tuition fees and living expenses in the UK, and that you meet the English language proficiency requirements.

The application process usually involves completing an online application form, submitting supporting documents, attending a biometric appointment to provide your fingerprints and a photograph, and paying the application fee.
