Student visa enquiries peak before university intake deadlines, creating bursts of volume that overwhelm small immigration teams. Many applicants are referred by education agents with incomplete documentation, while others self-refer after a CAS refusal or financial evidence query from their university.
Common Eligibility Confusion in 2026
Student visa rules vary by institution, location, and dependants — creating frequent misunderstandings among first-time applicants.
- Maintenance fund requirements differ by city and dependant count
- English evidence must match the level required by the university
- Applicants in the UK may not realise switching rules apply
- Graduate visa planning overlooked until course completion
- CAS not yet issued but applicant assumes they can apply immediately
