Ok so as long as you meet the tier 4 requirements you should be fine. If your place of study is accredited, they can provide you with a visa letter that is required to say you are unconditonally accepted and such. Also, you're subject to a maintenance requirement of one years worth of tuition fees and living expenses but in your case it would be less than one year(however long your course takes).xleft wrote:First, thanks so much in advance for all your great help!![]()
For my question I need to show some of my history but try to be very quick.
First when I came to UK as student I studied English at two 6 months courses (1 year in total).
Then I studied at undergraduate in UK university and received BA degree.
Then I studied posgraduate course in UK university and recently finished and got MA degree.
Now I relocated to Scottish Higlands, change some of my plans, etc. and realised that I need to study little bit more to increase my confidence and to help my partner with business effectively in the future. But I don't want to study for BA, MA or PHD anymore. I mean I just need to get some basic knowledge in acocunting, business language skills, etc. In total it will take about 4-6 months of shot full time courses. Maybe even less. But my student visa will run out at the end of January 2010.
My questions:
Will Home Office be happy to give me student visa extension for short full time courses. I am thinking about business english language courses and also I like one course in Scottish college which gives just NQ degree but that's what I need. I don't need something too deep and complicated cause I enjoy further self study myself. My worry is that Home Office may think that it does not look consistent that after I got BA and MA I want another student visa for much more simple short course/courses.
Can you advice me please, do they look at this like I need to go for higher and higher degree every time for example. Or I can go anywhere basically as long as it is eligible for student visa. Also when I called them they told me to look at the website and they told me that it's usually minimum 6 months full time course. But there are many many Business English courses which are on 1-2 months and accredited for student visas.
Am I too paranoid? I was never refused student visas before but I always got higher and higher degree before. Like Short courses then BA then MA. Now it's not PHD or MA or BA, just simpler full time short courses. Can it be a problem? Or I don't have any grounds to worry here. (sorry if it looks silly but for me it's real concern).
Thank you so much!
