Attendance is a key contributor to successful studies and we'd like to ensure you get the most out of your time at UAL.
If you've applied for or received your student visa, then as your sponsor we're required by UK Visas and Immigration (UKVI) to monitor your engagement with your course.
This guidance explains what course engagement is required from you and how this will be monitored at UAL.
- If you don't meet the requirements, you may be withdrawn from your course and your Student Route visa sponsorship removed.
- If you remain fully engaged with your course, the University will not withdraw you. Sponsorship of your Student Route visa will remain valid.
You must:
- engage with all compulsory sessions
- meet deadlines for the submission of work
- communicate with your Course team and other relevant staff members.
Read the UAL Attendance policy for students and then explore the specific requirements for visa holders.
