Good news for students who are going to embark on an international study in the UK – you are allowed to find work and gain income to supplement your living funds. However, the exact rules depend on when your visa was issued. This article will outline the rules for those students studying in the UK on a Tier 4 Student Visa.

The Tier 4 Student Visa is the visa issued to international students who want to study at an educational institution in the UK. The study must be full-time. Once you receive an offer from a UK educational institution, you must apply for this visa. On receipt of the visa, you are permitted to study, and work, in the UK, although there are some ground rules.

Visa Applied For Before 4th July 2011

If you applied for the Tier 4 Student Visa before the 4th July 2011, the rules for the work that you are allowed to complete are different from the rules for those issued after that date.

Students on a Tier 4 Student Visa that was applied for before 4th July 2011 are allowed to:

  • Embark on part-time employment during the term-time
  • Embark on full-time employment during holiday time
  • Embark on a work placement that is part of your course of study
  • Take up employment in the Students’ Union in the role of a sabbatical officer for a period of up to 2 years
  • Take up employment as a postgraduate dentist or doctor on a Foundation Programme that has been officially recognised by the government

Up to 20 hours of part-time work is permitted per week if you are currently enrolled on a course that is at or above degree level (in the UK) or if you are enrolled on a foundation course.

You are also permitted to work part-time for up to 20 hours per week if you submitted your Tier 4 visa application on or before the 2nd March 2010.

If the course you are enrolled on is at a level below UK degree level, is not recognised as a foundation degree course and you applied for the Tier 4 visa on or after the 3rd March 2010, then you may only take up part-time employment for up to 10 hours per week.

Visa Applied For After 4th July 2011

The rules are slightly different for those full-time students who have applied for the Tier 4 visa after the 4th July 2011. The rules are also different depending on the level of study you are completing.

Those students enrolled on courses at or above QCF 6 / NQF 6 / SCFQ 9 (which generally refers to any Bachelor degree programs or higher) at any higher education institutions in the UK are allowed to:

 

  • Embark on part-time employment for a maximum of 20 hours per week during term time
  • Embark on full-time work during holidays
  • Embark on a work placement that is part of your course of study
  • Take up employment in the Students’ Union in the role of a sabbatical officer for a period of up to 2 years
  • Take up employment as a postgraduate dentist or doctor on a Foundation Programme that has been officially recognised by the government
Those students enrolled on courses below the UK degree level are allowed to:
  • Embark on part-time work of up to 10 hours per week during term time
  • Embark on full-time work during holidays
  • Embark on a work placement that is part of your course of study
  • Take up employment in the Students’ Union in the role of a sabbatical officer for a period of up to 2 years

If you are studying in the UK through an education provider that is not a recognised UK higher education institution, or publicly funded FE (further education) college, then you are NOT permitted to work during your course of study in the UK.

Other Restrictions

It is important to note that, at no point, are you permitted to embark on full-time permanent employment.

The government has also restricted the type of work that international students can embark on whilst studying in the UK. As an international student in the UK:

  • You are not allowed to work in a self-employed status
  • You must not embark on employment as a doctor in training. The only way in which this is allowed is if you are taking up this employment through a recognised Foundation Programme.
  • You must not take up employment as a professional sportsperson, entertainer or coach.
  • How to Work Part-Time in the UK on A Student Visa

International students are permitted to work full-time during university holidays, in line with the limits outlined above.

On completion of your course of study, if you wish to remain in the UK and you submit a visa application for consideration, you may embark on full-time employment until you are informed of the decision on your visa application. However, you are only permitted to do this if your current visa has not yet expired.

 

 

 

London is home to over 100,000 international students from over 200 different nations – that's more international students studying in London than in any other city in the world.


London universities offer every undergraduate degree and postgraduate courses you can imagine, from accountancy to zoology. Choose from over 30,000 university courses at 45 universities.

UK Student VISA: Important Visa questions

The following are some of the important questions that the ambassador asks during the interview for the student visa

1. Why did you choose this university and how did you find about it?

Tip: You should go through the website and handbook of your university carefully. Pen down some highlighted features such as World ranking, the research facility, the faculty profile, Alumni profile etc. Visa officer wants to know the reason behind joining the particular University. You should also mention the reason how you learned about the university.

The UK has grown to become one of the top destinations to study abroad.

 

With traditions of excellence dating back hundreds of years, high class institutions at every corner and much more flexibility than many other countries, the United Kingdom has much to offer international students that other English-speaking countries cannot offer.

If you want to study in the UK, you may have to think about the student visa process.
