You must have enough money to pay for your course and support yourself in the UK.
How much money you need depends on your circumstances and what you’re applying for.
Course fee
You need enough money to pay for your course for 1 academic year (up to 9 months). The amount you need to pay will be on your Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS).
If you’ve been in the UK with a valid visa for at least 12 months, you do not need to prove you have this money for your visa application.
Money to support yourself (‘financial requirement’)
You’ll need to show you have enough money to support yourself – unless you’ve been in the UK with a valid visa for at least 12 months on the date of your application.
How much money you need depends on where you will be studying. You’ll need either:
- £1,334 per month (for up to 9 months) for courses in London
- £1,023 per month (for up to 9 months) for courses outside London
If you’re boarding at a residential independent school, you’ll need to pay boarding fees instead. The amount you need to pay will be on your CAS.
London means the City of London and the 32 London boroughs.
You must have this money for at least 28 consecutive days. The end date of the 28-day period must be within 31 days of the date you apply for your visa.
Example:- If you submit your application on 1 January 2024, you’d have to show that the funds were in your bank account for at least the 28-day period ending on 1 December 2023.
London
£1,334 x 9 Months = £12006 + First-year university free (funds have been held for 28 days must be from the 31 days)
Eg :- First-year university free £16000 if you are pay £10000 total balance £6000
so you have to show the funds £12006 + £6000 = £18006 in your account 28 days
Out of London
£1,023 x 9 Months = £9207 + First-year university free (funds have been held for 28 days must be from the 31 days)
Eg :- First-year university free £16000 if you are pay £10000 total balance £6000
so you have to show the funds £9207 + £6000 = £15207 in your account 28 days
If you have a student loan or financial sponsorship, you’ll need to provide evidence of this from your loan or sponsorship company.

This article provides a detailed explanation about the required amount of funds for the UK student visa.

When you have a student loan, how does it affect these money requirements

Having a student loan doesn’t affect the funds requirement. When applying for a visa, you need to show 28 days of continuous balance from a bank statement or an official sponsorship letter. A loan is not something a visa officer considers as future income.

How do you submit student loan or sponsorship evidence with the visa application
baghya
The way to submit student loan or sponsorship evidence in a visa application is clear. If it’s a loan, you need to attach the official document from the bank letter that confirms the loan disbursement. If it’s sponsorship, an official letter is issued by the sponsor institution/organization showing that it covers tuition fees and living costs. This fulfills the requirement by uploading this evidence to the application. This article explains it step by step, very helpful!

Post informative content again, super valuable for students. When applying for a visa with dependents, the funds requirement changes.

Can you explain the practical difference in the monthly living cost between London and outside London?
roshanya
When studying in London, the monthly living cost requirement is £1,334. When studying outside London, it’s £1,023. Taking the practical difference — for a 9-month study period, a London student needs to show £12,006, and a student outside London needs to show £9,207. For example, if there’s a tuition balance of £6,000, the total funds requirement for a London student is £18,006, and for a student outside London, it’s £15,207. This figures make the practical difference in living costs between London and outside London super clear

Yes, accommodation fees are not added to the living cost requirement in the visa application.

Accommodation fees (accommodation payments) need to be covered separately. If the CAS letter shows tuition fees + already paid accommodation fees, you can deduct it from the tuition balance and show funds separately for the living cost requirement.

Dependents එක්ක UK student visa apply කරන විට extra funds requirement එක detail එකෙන් explain කරන්න ඕනේ. Main applicantට living cost requirement එකක් තියෙනවා (£1,334 London / £1,023 London පිටත, per month up to 9 months). Dependents සඳහා additional monthly funds show කරන්න ඕනේ
ken jah
How does it get added to the accommodation fees living cost requirement?
sansala
Visa application එකේ living cost requirement එකට accommodation fees එක directly add වෙන්නේ නැහැ. Living cost requirement එක fixed monthly rate එකක් ලෙස ගණනය කරනවා (£1,334 London / £1,023 London පිටත, up to 9 months). නවාතැන් ගාස්තු (accommodation fees) වෙනම cover කරන්න ඕනේ
hushen
Can I use a joint account for the 28 days balance proof
jithma
Yes, you can use a joint account for the 28 days balance proof in the UK student visa application. But there’s a condition: the applicant’s name must be clearly shown as owner/holder on the joint account. If the applicant’s name is listed as joint holder on the bank statement showing the funds, it’s acceptable evidence.
yasas
Part-time job allowance එක funds requirement එකට consider වෙයිද
vishadi herath
Visa application එකේ funds requirement එකට part-time job allowance consider වෙන්නේ නැහැ. Embassy officers future income (ඉදිරියේදී job එකෙන් ලැබෙන allowance) proof of funds ලෙස ගන්නෙ නැහැ. Visa apply කරන වෙලාවේදී tuition balance + living cost requirement separately bank statement එකෙන් continuous 28 days funds show කරන්න ඕනේ

Visa apply කරනකොට dependents එක්ක ගියොත් healthcare surcharge එකත් වෙනස් වෙයිද?
aravind
UK student visa apply කරනකොට dependents එක්ක ගියොත් healthcare surcharge එකත් වෙනස් වෙනවා. Main applicantට IHS (Immigration Health Surcharge) ගාස්තු pay කරන්න ඕනේ, dependents එක්ක ගියොත් ඔවුන්ටත් separately surcharge එක ගෙවන්න වෙනවා.🙂🙂
amila
Visa apply කරනකොට මේකේ තියෙන 28 days balance requirement එක ගොඩක් tricky. මේක ගැන තව clear example දාන්න පුළුවන්ද?
hiranya
Visa application එකේ 28 days balance requirement එක tricky වෙන්නේ funds continuous period එකට maintain කරන්න ඕනේ කියන rule එක නිසා. Clear example එකක් බලමු:
ඔබට tuition balance + living cost requirement එකට total £15,000 show කරන්න ඕනේ කියලා assume කරමු.
Bank statement එකේ balance එක minimum £15,000 continuous 28 days තියෙන්න ඕනේ.
Example: March 1st සිට March 28th දක්වා balance එක £15,000+ maintain වෙලා තිබුණා නම්, March 29th bank statement එක submit කරන්න පුළුවන්.
Balance එක 28 days අතර කිසිම දිනක £15,000 ට අඩු වෙලා නම්, requirement fail වෙනවා
dinitha
Highlighting the practical difference in monthly living costs when studying in London and outside London is super useful
dilhara
When applying for a UK student visa, the monthly living cost requirement differs between London and outside London. This practical difference needs to be highlighted well for students.
hanz
When applying for a visa with dependents, please provide more details about the extra funds requirement.
kesith
If you submit the visa application with dependents, you need to explain the extra funds requirement in detail. The main applicant has a living cost requirement (£1,334 London / £1,023 outside London, per month up to 9 months). You need to show additional monthly funds for dependents
indika
Visa application එකට dependents එක්ක ගියොත් monthly living cost requirement එක by how much increase වෙයි?
uresh
Visa application එක dependents එක්ක දාන්න ගියොත් monthly living cost requirement එක increase වෙනවා dependents ගණන අනුව. Main applicantට තියෙන requirement එකට අමතරව:
London තුළ: £845 per month per dependent
London පිටත: £680 per month per dependent
මේක maximum 9 months consider කරනවා.
මේක tuition fees වලට අමතරව show කරන්න ඕනේ, bank statement එක continuous 28 days funds maintain වෙලා තිබිය යුතු
peshala
When using a joint account, will the bank balance proof be accepted?
ogaysh
You can use a joint account for the 28 days balance proof in the visa application. However, the bank balance proof will be accepted only if the applicant’s name is clearly listed as a joint account holder in the bank statement. If the applicant’s name is shown as an owner/holder of the joint account, it will be accepted as evidence satisfying the funds requirement.
keral
The explanation given about the extra funds requirement if going with dependents is useful
sinharage
When applying for a visa with dependents, the monthly living cost requirement increases. In London, you need to prove £845 per dependent, and outside London, £680 per dependent per month (up to 9 months). This is useful info that gives clear guidance to students and parents

arosh sanka
Visa application එකට student loan evidence දාන්න ඕනේ නම් bank/financial institution එකෙන් නිකුත් කරන official loan letter එක attach කරන්න ඕන. ඒක applicantගේ නමට issue වෙලා තිබිය යුතුයි, loan එක approve කරලා disburse කරන බවත් clearly mention වෙන්න ඕන. මේ official document එක visa application එක upload කරන වෙලාවේ financial evidence එකක් ලෙස accept වෙනවා

When checking the funds requirement for a visa application, do they consider part-time job allowance? Please clarify that too. This is an important doubt for students, and clearing it would boost their confidence
