Will my previous refugee application hinder my changes to study in the UK?

Post by lisali » Tue Aug 03, 2021 7:33 pm

Hello,

In 2012 I was studying in Canada as a foreign student, however the situation in my country got dangerous so I applied for refugee status. Eventually the situation in my country improved so I withdrew this claim (after 3 years) Because of all the uncertainty I was not I was not able to finish my studies in Canada.

I would now like to study for a masters degree in the UK and I was wondering if this previous refugee claim would hinder my chances of getting a student visa. I would be grateful for any of your options, suggestions, advice

Thank you

There is no question in the application form asking if you have applied for refugee in any countries so I don't think it's a problem.
