Graduate Visa Application Process: Completion Of Studies Requirement

Graduate visas allow international students to remain in the UK after completing their studies.

If you are an international student who has completed your studies at a UK University, you can apply for a Graduate visa, which will allow you to stay in the UK for two years after finishing your degree, or three years if you have completed a doctorate. This type of visa enables you to work in any job or look for employment without requiring sponsorship from a UK company or a job offer.

There is a completion of studies requirement to apply for a Graduate visa. You must have completed your course of study specified in the Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies linked to your Student Visa. You can only apply once your final results have been formally ratified by your institution, including any deferrals and resits.
