« on: July 01, 2010, 10:17:01 PM »
I haven't received my student visa application yet? Should I be concerned? I was told it would be mailed out in mid june.

Do you mean the CAS (certificate of sponsorship) from the school which will allow you to apply for the visa? If so, the only people who can answer that are the university staff who were supposed to send it to you - I would email or call them and ask where it is. Bear in mind though, that unless it is sent by FedEx/UPS Overnight, airmail between the UK and US usually takes 1-2 weeks to arrive so it may have been sent, but you just haven't received it yet.

The student visa application itself has nothing to do with the school and is something you need to fill out online when you have all the required documents for the visa: http://www.ukvisas.gov.uk/en/applyonline/

The application itself is your responsibility - the school only sends you the CAS.

All visa applicants from the US must apply online via the link I posted above... you can go ahead and start filling in the application right now if you want, as long as you have the CAS and your financial evidence.

I got it all figured out, problem was the info on the school website was different then the UK immigration page.
Tomorrow I'm going to get fingerprinted or whatever else they need to do. I knew I had to pay for the visa but $300 wow wasn't expecting it to be that much. Oh well don't care.
