If your course is more than 6 months, you can arrive one month before the course start. If your course is less than 6 months, you can arrive up to 1 week before. The fees for a student visa outside the UK will cost £ 348. The student inside from the UK will cost £ 475. If you bring another person or dependents with you, you must also pay the extra visa fee.
