Switching from Tier 2 to Tier 4

Post by green599 » Mon Aug 29, 2016 8:19 am

Guys,

I have a quick question,

Currently I am at Tier 2 General Visa which is going to expire in First week of December 2016.

I have been offered a MSc course in a reputed University, the starting date of the course is 23rd January 2017.

I am planning to apply for the Visa in Mid-November sometime.

Do I have to go back to my country (PK) and apply Visa from there? or can I get extension without leaving the country?

Does anyone knows how it’s going to work?

Thanks in advance.

Cheers
