EU Settlement Scheme
A deal has now been agreed and the UK has now left the European Union.
Any EU, EEA or Swiss citizens who wish to continue to reside in the UK, including for the purposes of study, either need to have applied for, or have been granted, settled or pre-settled status.
The deadline to apply to the EU Settlement Scheme was 30 June 2021. Late applications can however be submitted and we would urge any of our students who may be eligible for the Scheme to submit an application. To be eligible, you must have been living in the UK prior to 1 January 2021. Concessions are in place if you have spent time outside of the UK due to distance learning / Covid-19. You can apply to it now for free. If submitting a late application, you must include a supporting document / statement explaining your reason for the late submission.
If you have to applied to the EU Settlement Scheme and are not eligible (i.e. you were not living in the UK before 1 January 2021), you must apply for an appropriate UK visa. If you are not currently in the UK, you must apply for this before travelling.
