I agreed with the previous member. How long has your spouse been in the UK as your dependent? If more than 3 years she can register at University as a home student. This means paying the same fees as the British students.longwalkhome2010 wrote:i am an mba student in the UK and am going to apply for PSW visa soon. my dependent wife wants to study 12 months masters during my 2 yrs PSW visa. is there any restriction on that? we have taken this decision to avoid the complications of obtaining a student visa for her as it needs to be applied from home country.

My wife has studied for an NVQ level 4 at thames valley university and the conditions to pay home student fees was to have been in the UK for at least 3 years (with proof in the passport), been legally in the UK, and not have entered the UK on student visa.Greenie wrote:This is not correct.andsyl wrote:I agreed with the previous member.

What part of the student fee regulations are you referring to?
In order for the wife to qualify for home fees she would need to be settled in the UK unless she is the family member of a UK/EU national or someone with refugee status/humanitarian protection or meets one of the other catergories listed in the link below.

The course was part-time for 12 months. I am sorry my experience is not based on a UKBA on specific regulations. It may be necessary to check with the School. But I can confirm that many couples (that I know) have taken advantage of this. May be it is only valid for Further education training.
I have checked the link and you are perfectly rights. Sorry to have generalized my personal experience.
You are absolutely right. for higher education applicant has to be settled and living in the UK for at least 3 years with any means rather than student visa.Greenie wrote:Yes the rules for Further Education are different (and more generous).andsyl wrote:My wife has studied for an NVQ level 4 at thames valley university and the conditions to pay home student fees was to have been in the UK for at least 3 years (with proof in the passport), been legally in the UK, and not have entered the UK on student visa.Greenie wrote:This is not correct.andsyl wrote:

However the OP's wife wants to study a masters so the link and advice in my previous post applies.
