ATAS

All visiting international students require ATAS approval (for applicable programmes). Where ATAS is required, this will be indicated in the formal offer letter.

Fees

Most visiting research students will be charged a fee. This fee will depend on the nature of the research being carried out by the visiting student and will vary between Schools and Departments. Fees will be confirmed in the formal offer letter.

Receiving an Offer

Once the School has submitted an approved application, it will be processed by the Doctoral College Office.

The Doctoral College Office will issue a formal offer letter to successful applicants confirming the details of the proposed visit and any offer conditions.

Applicants are asked to accept their offer by way of email. Applicants can request a Visa Letter (for visits of less than 6 months) or a CAS (for visits of more than 6 months) from the Doctoral College Office to support visa applications.

It is the School’s responsibility to ensure that processes are put in place to meet and welcome the student to the University when they arrive and give them adequate induction/training.
