Can you switch into the Tier 4 (General) student category?

You can switch into Tier 4 (General) without leaving the UK if you have, or were last given, permission to stay in one of the following categories:

Tier 1 (Post-study work)

Tier 2 (General)

You can try applying for another category! Forget about getting student visa with your current situation. You have a better chance of winning the EURO millions lottery than getting T4.
IMpossible is 2 letters to long!

I don't think you can get student visa anymore. Try to switch to another category.
