How to apply as an International Student

Our admissions team will begin assessing your application. If we require any further information to make a decision, we will contact you to request this, so please make sure to check your emails regularly.

If your application is successful you will receive a Conditional Offer letter. Your Conditional Offer letter will list the details of your chosen course, tuition fees and any conditions that you need to meet as well as any deadlines.

If you require a student visa, you will be invited to attend an online admissions interview. This interview is a chance for us to ask you about your motivations for studying at Newcastle College, why you want to study your course, where you will live and anything else which is relevant.

It's also a good opportunity for you to ask any questions about the visa application process.

Student Route - Once you have met all the conditions of your offer and paid your tuition fee deposit, Newcastle College will provide you with a Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS). The CAS is an important document that you must submit with your student visa application. You won't be able to make your visa application without it!

Standard Visitor Visa and Short Term Student Visa - Once you have met all the conditions of your offer and paid your tuition fees, Newcastle College will provide you with an Uncondtional Offer letter. You can use the Unconditional Offer letter as part of your visa application.

When your visa application has been approved, you can begin to plan your arrival in the UK. Our International Team is on hand to answer any queries you have regarding travel, accommodation, and enrolment. 

When you arrive at the college, you will have a dedicated induction session where you can learn more about the College, your course, and student visa compliance (for student route applicants). The International Office is also open five days a week for any queries or concerns that you have.
