From student to graduate visa holder
After completing your academic programme, you may be eligible to apply for a graduate visa to extend your stay in the UK. This usually applies to international students with a valid Tier 4 General Student Visa. The graduate visa usually allows you to live in the UK for 2 years, with the option to extend your stay for 3 more years if you have completed a doctorate qualification like a PhD. Through this route, our immigration lawyers can help you expand your career and education opportunities before you're forced to leave the country.
Use our extensive resources and expertise maximise your chances of staying in the UK longer, supporting your transition from student visa holder to successfully obtaining your graduate visa. Eligible partners and children could also continue to stay as dependents on the graduate visa, if they arrived into the country on your original student visa. We'll advise on these matters and more, helping you make the right choice for your circumstances.
