Navigating the Cost of Living
Living in the UK as an international student is an exciting adventure, but managing your finances wisely is crucial for the best experience. Our team at Veritas Mundi Education is here to guide you through understanding and managing the cost of living in the UK, ensuring you have a comfortable and fulfilling student experience. Here is a breakdown of the costs to consider:
Accommodation: The cost of housing varies depending on your location within the UK. Major cities like London generally have higher rents. On average, you can expect to spend around £600 to £800 per month on accommodation. Consider options such as university residencies, shared apartments, or homestays.
Food: Grocery shopping and cooking at home can be cost-effective. Budget around £30 to £50 per week for groceries. Dining out occasionally is enjoyable but can add to your expenses, so manage this wisely.
Transport: The UK has an extensive public transportation network, including buses and trains. Invest in an Oyster card in London or regional travel passes based on your location. Weekly transport costs can range from £20 to £40.
Healthcare: International students in the UK usually have access to the National Health Service (NHS). However, you may still need health insurance for services not covered by the NHS.
Entertainment: The UK offers a vibrant cultural scene with various entertainment options. Allocate a budget of around £40 to £80 per week for leisure activities, including movies, dining out, and exploring local events.
Part-Time Work: Many international students work part-time to support their studies. The UK has a national minimum wage, which provides opportunities for employment. Veritas Mundi Education will help you understand your student visa's work restrictions before seeking employment.
Navigating Student Visa Application
When starting your educational journey in the UK, understanding the visa application requirements is essential. The UK offers several visa categories, but for international students pursuing higher education, the Student Visa is the appropriate choice. Veritas Mundi Education is your trusted partner in this journey. We provide assistance with every aspect of your student visa application. Please read our comprehensive guide to help you get familiar with the process.
Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS): Before applying for a UK Student Visa, you must secure admission to a recognised UK educational institution and obtain a Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS). This document is essential and contains vital information about your course, your institution, and your personal details.
English Language Proficiency: To study in the UK, you will need to demonstrate your English language proficiency. Most institutions require a certain level of English language skills, which you can prove by taking internationally recognised exams such as IELTS, TOEFL or PTE.
The Academic Technology Approval Scheme (ATAS) Certificate: Some international students may need to obtain an ATAS Certificate. This requirement applies to all international students and researchers (apart from exempt nationalities) who are subject to UK immigration control and intend to study or research at the postgraduate level in certain sensitive subjects.
Financial Requirements: You will need to prove that you have enough funds to cover your tuition fees and living expenses while studying in the UK. The exact amount varies based on your location – for programmes in London you will need £1,334 per month (for up to 9 months) and for courses outside of London you will need £1,023 per month (for up to 9 months). You must have this money for at least 28 consecutive days in your or your parent’s account.
Tuberculosis (TB) Testing: If you come from a country where TB is prevalent, you may be required to undergo a TB test as part of your visa application.
Healthcare Surcharge: As part of your student visa application, you will need to pay the healthcare surcharge. The amount you pay depends on the length of your visa and your individual circumstances. This payment provides you with access to the UK's National Health Service (NHS) during your stay.
International students studying in the UK under a Student Visa are allowed to work part-time during term time (up to 20 hours per week) and full-time during semester breaks. Additionally, the UK offers a generous post-study work option through the Graduate Visa. It will give you permission to stay in the UK for at least 2 years after successfully completing a course in the UK.
