We liaise direct with the Home Office regarding immigration compliance procedures for our students who apply for visas to study at BU. Immigration compliance requirements are monitored and enforced by the Home Office's UK Visa and Immigration Service (UKVI). Please read the following important information about your visa responsibilities, how we monitor your attendance and engagement with your studies and what you need to do if you interrupt your studies, do not enrol, fail your assessments, or withdraw from your course.


Student visa responsibilities

It is important that you understand the responsibilities that come with your Student visa. There are immigration rules set by the Home Office that you must follow. Bournemouth University (BU) holds a Student Sponsor licence and therefore there are also certain immigration rules that we must follow. Please read this information very carefully and refer to it while you are studying with us.
