Student visas require a Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS) from your UK institution, financial capacity (tuition + living expenses—typically £1,334/month in London, £1,023/month elsewhere), English language proficiency (IELTS, TOEFL, or PTE), and proof of academic qualifications.
Skilled Worker visas hinge on employer sponsorship via Certificate of Sponsorship, meets skill level (RQF Level 3 or above), salary threshold (typically £38,700 or occupation-specific rate), and English language requirement (B1 level).
