Your CAS and visa application

The CAS statement gives information on the course you have been accepted onto, including qualification level, duration, tuition fees and what documents the University used to accept you.

You will be provided with a CAS once you have met the full conditions of your offer and confirmed how you will be funding your studies. Applications under the new Student category will now be able to be made 6 months before the start date of the course stated on the Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies for those applicants applying to us from overseas. An application for permission to stay within the UK can be made 3 months before the start date of the course on the Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies

The CAS will be issued to you once you have completed the following:

• Made Loughborough University your firm choice through UCAS
• Met the conditions of your offer
• Obtained an ATAS certificate (if required)
• Provided the University with a scanned copy of your current passport via email
• Entered your current passport number on UCAS with application

If you have a conditional offer, you will need to send us your exam results and English language qualification before we can issue a CAS. If you are booked onto a pre-sessional English language course that is shorter than three months, and have met all other conditions of your offer, you may be issued with a CAS which covers both the pre-sessional and undergraduate degree courses.
