You should start planning at least 2 months before your current visa expire. Please do not request your CAS is you are expecting module results, as the results may affect the end date of your course.
Returning from Approved Temporary Withdrawal
Check all the modules you need to do to complete your course are on your Student Information portal and that your course end date is correct. Your programme must be correct in order for your CAS to be issued.
Follow the 2 steps below:
- For help with your programme, email the Student Support Coordinators (SSC) in your Faculty. You will then know which modules you will need to add to complete your programme.
- If you are on Approved Temporary Withdrawal, you will not be able to add the modules yourself. Please email your SSCs to help with this. Please bear in mind it will take time to sort your programme so please give yourself plenty of time. If you have problems liaising with your SSCs, please contact ISAT.
Make sure you have the right documents for your visa application. It is extremely important that you check the financial requirements carefully and give yourself plenty of time to get these ready.
In order to consider your request for a CAS needed to extend your Student visa, we will have to check that you have been attending your lectures and engaging with your course. If you have not been attending and engaging, we reserve the right not to issue your CAS.
Please note that if you have an outstanding debt to the university for tuition or accommodation fees, you will not be issued a CAS until they are fully paid.
Fill in the visa information form and email it to the International Student Advice Team (isat@brookes.ac.uk) along with:
- your passport photo page
- your current and previous visas
- your financial evidence if you are not a country on the differential requirement list.
After you receive the CAS from the International Student Compliance Team, follow our guidance on making your visa application.
If you have any questions about the process, please contact ISAT.
