Apply for your Visa

In order to avoid delays in getting your visa, it is very important to apply for your Student visa as soon as you have received your Confirmation of Acceptance for Study (CAS) letter. Any delays in receiving your visa, will impact your ability to register onto your course on time.

Our team can support you through this process. You can contact us by using the OIEG contact us form.

We will request updates on your visa application status via CAS Shield, the online self-service system that you used when you submitted your CAS documents. Please ensure that you click the button that best represents your situation so we can promptly assist you. Once you’ve received your visa, please upload the vignette on CAS Shield.

Important Note: eVisa’s

The government is replacing physical immigration documents, such as biometric residence permits (BRPs) with digital proof of immigration status called an eVisa for new applicants.

An eVisa is a digital record of a person’s immigration status. You can find the latest information is available at www.gov.uk/eVisa

Setting up your eVisa account:

You can set up your eVisa as soon as your visa is granted. You should create your UKVI online account before arriving in the UK. This ensures you can manage your digital immigration status without delays.

Steps to Take:

1. Access Your eVisa: Create a UK Visas and Immigration (UKVI) account to access your eVisa (Get Access – eVisa)

Ensure your personal details and the passport you will use for travel are correctly linked to your UKVI account. (Making sure your eVisa is correct)

2. Verify Your eVisa Details: Use the ‘View and Prove Your Immigration Status’ service to confirm that your immigration status is displayed correctly and that you have permission to travel to the UK.

Private accommodation

If you want to live off-campus, please take into consideration that due to the ongoing housing and cost of living crisis, private accommodation is more difficult to find and may be more expensive than usual.

Searching for private accommodation can be quite time consuming so be prepared to do a lot of browsing online.

We recommend using CASITA, as they are a one stop shop for student accommodation and offer multilingual 24/7 support to help you find the best accommodation within your budget. You can start you search by clicking HERE

Here are a few other sites to look for accommodation – most will be updated regularly with new properties.

edinburghstudentpad.co.uk
unite-students.com
yugo.com
wearehomesforstudents.co.uk
accommodationforstudents.com
mystudenthalls.com
novelstudent.com

Letting Agents

Not all flats will be rented by the homeowner. In some cases the homeowner will employ a letting agent to manage their properties. The letting agent will manage the rental process, including legal formalities from signing a lease to dealing with repairs and maintenance. The main letting agents advertise on the following sites:

espc.com
citylets.co.uk
s1homes.com
zoopla.co.uk
rightmove.co.uk

Flatshare Websites

There are many online sites such as spareroom.co.uk where people advertise for flatmates to live with them. You’ll need to register with these sites but you can look for a room to rent, as well as post a profile of yourself – be honest! They are quick and easy to search and generally no calls need to be made initially since most of the communication is done via email which makes the process a bit less daunting if English is not your first language.

Spareroom has fees if you want to contact fresh listings – otherwise you will need to wait until the listing is 7 days old.

It is advisable to move into your accommodation a day or two before your course start date so that you are fully rested and ready to attend our informative and engaging induction events.

To maximize your success on your chosen course and to have the best student experience, we recommend that your term time accommodation is within 40 miles distance from the College. This will make it easier for you to attend your classes and to get involved in clubs and societies of your interest.

We will request updates on your accommodation details via CAS Shield, the online self-service system that you used when you submitted your CAS documents. Please ensure that you click the button that best represents your situation so we can promptly assist you.

Booking your flight

Immediately after you’ve received your visa, book your flight. When booking your flight, please make sure you arrive a few days before your first day of the term, so you have enough time to check-in to your accommodation and join your classes on time. Edinburgh is well connected with direct flights from China, Turkey and the Middle East. If connecting via another airport e.g. Amsterdam, please make sure you have the correct visa documents for your transit destination.

We will request updates on your flight details via CAS Shield, the online self-service system that you used when you submitted your CAS documents. Once you’ve booked your flight, please upload your flight ticket on CAS Shield so we can prepare for your arrival.

Accommodation Advice

The Edinburgh Napier University International College can provide you with support and advice related to finding suitable accommodation. It is recommended that students live in Halls of Residence, on campus, for at least the first year in Edinburgh. This accommodation is safe, secure and is a good way to make friends​. There are a variety of prices to suit different budgets​ and rent includes all bills. Living on campus also means that there is no need to pay for expensive public transport​.

FAQs

All Biometric Residence Permits (BRPs) are being issued with an expiry date of 31st December 2024, even if your visa or course continues after this date. This is because UK Visas and Immigration (UKVI) is switching from physical BRP cards to eVisas, which are digital records of your immigration status. An eVisa will show details like your visa type, expiry date, and conditions for staying in the UK.

You can watch this video for more info on what an eVisa is.

To access your eVisa, you’ll need to create a UKVI account. This is free, and you should do this before your BRP card expires at the end of December 2024. Changing from a physical BRP to an eVisa will not affect your immigration status or the conditions of your stay in the UK.

For help creating a UKVI account and accessing your eVisa, watch this video.

You can prove your immigration status by using the view and prove service to create a share code. This code will give others temporary access to your immigration information. You can get a new share code whenever you need one.

Your eVisa will be linked to your passport in your UKVI account. Before travelling to the UK, make sure your current passport is correctly linked to your eVisa. If not, you may face delays at the border.

It’s important to keep your passport details up to date in your UKVI account and notify UKVI if anything changes. This will make it easier for border officials to confirm your immigration status. You must still carry your current passport when travelling. If you’ve applied for a new passport and UKVI has not yet updated your account, carry both your old and new passports to avoid any delays.

Remember: Keep carrying your BRP card when travelling internationally until it expires at the end of 2024.

You can watch this video to learn more about travelling with your eVisa.

Once you have completed registration you will be given an option to upload a photo for your student card via Photo Manager.

Once you have uploaded the photo and you are fully registered, your card will be posted to the UK contact address you have confirmed in Photo Manager. Please note that student cards will only be sent to a UK contact address. If your address is not correct, you need to update your student record prior to uploading your photo.

You will have an opportunity to change this address but if you do not have a secure contact address yet that your card can be posted to, you may choose not to request your card at this time. Please be aware that if you request your card to be sent to an address, other than your UK contact address, and are unable to retrieve the card you may be charged £10 for a replacement. Once you have an address you can then come back, upload your photo, choose/update your address and your card will be posted to you.

When you have fully completed the registration process, have a confirmed contact address, and have uploaded a photo, your card will be sent to the card bureau for printing. The data is sent down daily every evening so will be picked up the next day and processed. Your card will be posted within 5-7 days of the bureau receiving your card data. Please note that the processing time may increase to 10-14 working days at the start of term due to a high volume of requests.
