Study in United Kingdom
Study in the UK, home to globally recognised universities and a long-established route for Pakistani students.
About studying in United Kingdom
The United Kingdom hosts one of the world’s largest international student populations, and its degrees are recognised globally. For many Pakistani students it remains the benchmark destination, particularly for business, engineering, computing and health-related subjects.
Undergraduate applications are generally made through a central admissions service, while postgraduate applications usually go directly to the university. Most institutions require evidence of English proficiency, and many require a secure English language test specifically approved for visa purposes.
Student visa holders are typically permitted to work a limited number of hours during term time, with different limits during vacation periods. The exact allowance is set by UK immigration rules and changes from time to time, so we confirm the current position as part of your application.
Scholarships and fee reductions are offered by many universities, and some are open to international applicants. These are competitive and awarded at each institution’s discretion.

Can I work while studying?
Student visa holders are usually permitted to work a limited number of hours during term time, with a different limit during vacations. The allowance is set by UK immigration rules and changes periodically, so we confirm the current position for your intake.
