Student visitor - Question

Post by Imran121 » Mon Nov 01, 2010 5:51 pm

Hi,

Hope someone can clarify.

My cousin intends to come to the UK as Student Visitor.

However according to the UKBA

http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/study ... gyourstay/

Hes not allowed to extend his stay.

What we were thinking he can come over for 6 months & improve his English & extend his Visa onto a normal student visa for a year?

Is this not possible?

Thanks for your help.

Imran

Possible, if he enters UK with leave to enter as a prospective student.
