I've asked the institution and they said that I can study on PSW if I want to, but it's better to switch because as PSW has been closed and they were not sure what future policies will be regarding this. Thanks again.

Advice needed

I am currently on PSW visa which is due to expire on Sep 2013, I got admission in a Masters programme which is due to start in Sep 2012. So my question is should I switch to Tier 4 before starting my course or can I start my course on PSW and switch it later?

Thanks in advance!

Thanks in advance

For anyone in the similar situation, I called the Immigration enquiry bureau and the checked that my name was correctly spelled on the system. Hence it was just a typo on the letter.

Name misspelled on the acknowledgement letter.

Hi,

I applied for PSW visa and received my acknowledgement letter in which my name is misspelled. Now, I want to know whether I should contact the home office regarding this or just let it be?

Sorry about that just read the notes again, and it says if the correspondence address is different than the one where one is residing, then it has to be mentioned there.
