Study in Scotland

Student life in the UK is vibrant and diverse. You’ll have opportunities to explore historic cities, participate in unique cultural events, and build lifelong friendships with other international students. Our supportive environment is nurtured by dedicated teams across our locations, ensuring a safe and enriching experience throughout your studies.

If you are planning to study in the UK, you may need to apply for a Student Route visa. Your visa application will ask for your English language test scores. Some of our centres offer integrated CAS so providing you meet the requirements through ELLT or any other test that isn’t a SELT you can study with us. SELT is only required for courses below degree level on a stand-alone level 3 CAS.

Applying is easy, you can apply online via our online application form. If you feel stuck at any point reach out to our team and we can guide you through the entire process.

You can retrieve a share code through your UKVI online account to prove your immigration status.

Applying to study abroad can be daunting, but at Oxford International, our team of student advisors is here to make it easy for you. From day one, we’re here to guide you through every step. With over 30 years of experience helping international students worldwide, you can trust us to give you the advice you need, so you can make the best decisions.
First, you’ll choose a university, centre, or international college where you want to study. Whether you apply alone or with our support, we’ll provide you with a conditional offer within 24 hours. Once accepted, you’ll need to confirm your tuition payment method.
Our student experience team will then guide you through webinars and comprehensive guides on visa applications, accommodation booking, and preparing for your stay.

For your CAS to be released, you may need to attend a pre CAS interview carried out by Oxford International Education Group. If a credibility interview is required, it will be mentioned in your CAS Shield portal, which can be activated once you pay your deposit, or you receive your unconditional offer letter.

If you have already attended your pre CAS interview and have been successful, then your agent will be able to request for your CAS. Credibility Interviews are valid for 6 months, however if you decide to apply for another OIEG centre then you may be required to take the interview again.

A Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies number or CAS is a unique identification number issued to the university by the UKVI. This number confirms that the university has been given permission to ‘sponsor’ your Tier 4 application. Your Tier 4 visa will only be valid for study at the University Partner that has issued the CAS and you will receive the CAS number by email.

Please note that a Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies number can only be provided once the following conditions have been met:

1. You have received an unconditional offer from the University in writing.
2. You have paid a 50% deposit towards your fees.
3. You have provided copies of all documents that you need to submit with your student visa application (such as qualifications and proof of finances).

You must hold a valid UK visa that entitles you to study before you can start your course with one of our partner universities. Use your Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS) or Acceptance Letter to apply for a visa with your local British Embassy. Please visit the UK Government website for more information.

UKCISA’s website includes a useful guide to study skills for success. The British Council’s free online Prepare for Success tool is a great way to explore in more depth what you can expect when you live and study in the UK.

All UK universities have set language proficiency requirements for admission. Oxford International recognises the importance of meeting these standards to ensure students can excel in their academic pursuits. That’s why we’ve developed pathway programmes designed specifically for international students. These programmes are structured to equip students with the essential language skills and academic foundation necessary to succeed at universities throughout the UK. Our comprehensive offerings include intensive language training, academic preparation, and tailored support, ensuring students can transition confidently into their chosen university.
