Student Visa Extension
About Student Visa Extension
If you are already in the UK on a Student Visa and need to continue studying, you will usually need to extend your leave before your current permission expires. Extensions are common where you are moving onto a new course, progressing academically or completing a longer programme. The Home Office expects to see proper academic progression, a fresh Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies and up-to-date evidence of finances and English. RakLAW manages the extension end to end, helping you stay compliant and uninterrupted in your studies.
Who this is for
- Existing students moving to a new course
- Students progressing to a higher level of study
- Applicants nearing the end of their current leave
- Students whose circumstances or sponsor have changed

- Reviewing your new CAS and course details
