Tier 4 students cannot bring dependent straight away.

If you want to bring your family to the UK for the first time, you can bring them if:

- you are studying at postgraduate level for twelve months or more, or
- you are fully sponsored by your government for a programme of study longer than six months
- If you meet these requirements, you or your dependants can apply outside the UK at the same time as you or separately.

If you are studying on a course which is below degree level, or which you are studying for less than twelve months, or you are government sponsored for a course of six months or less, your dependants cannot join you in the UK as your Tier 4 dependants.
