If you already hold a visa that allows full time masters study in the UK and would like to submit an application, please send the relevant copies of any previous or current UK visas if you choose to study on campus and a color copy of a valid passport during the application process. As the UK has now left the EU, all applicants from outside the British Isles who do not hold a current British passport would also require a visa to study in the UK. Applicants who hold pre-settled or settled status are eligible to study with the Global Institute of Sport on campus. If you are still unsure whether you would need a visa to study in the UK please contact our Compliance team on [email protected]
