What you Need to Know About Child Student Visas
A Child Student Visa (previously a Tier 4 Child Student Visa) allows you to study at an independent school in the UK. If you are under 12 years old, a parent can join you by applying for a Parent of Child Student Visa. Child Student Visa holders aged under 16 will be able to stay in the UK for the length of their course (up to six years) plus four months. If you are aged 16 or 17 you can stay in the UK for the length of your course (up to three years) plus four months following the end of your course. If you are 16 or older and are applying for a Student Visa to study a foundation course or at university, you can stay in the UK. If you are eligible and want to stay longer in the UK, you may be able to extend your visa in order to continue studying in the UK. Our team will be able to advise you on this.

To apply for a Child Student Visa, you must:

  • Be between the ages of 4 & 17

  • Have an unconditional offer of a place on a course at an independent school

  • Have enough money to support yourself while on the course

  • Have the consent of your parents/legal guardians
