Education guidance for study in the UK
UK education guidance
British Global prepares a separate plan for each student: your grades, budget and goal go through an AI-assisted search, and the programmes matching your profile come back with a timetable and a document list set out in writing.

Choosing where to study and being permitted to go are two different problems on two different timetables, and the second one is fixed by the Home Office. The visa itself is at the UK Student visa.
01
What is UK education guidance?
UK education guidance is an information service that ties programme choice, the application file, offer tracking and Student visa preparation onto one timetable. It sets out published rules rather than making decisions on a student's behalf.
The timetable is the substance of it. Application deadlines, offer conditions, deposit dates and visa processing all sit on the same calendar, and a date missed at one point moves everything after it.
02
Which levels of study can be applied for in the UK?
Applications from Türkiye fall across six levels: language school, secondary school, foundation, undergraduate, master's and doctorate. Each level has its own application route, its own deadlines and its own entry requirements, and only one runs through a central system.
| Level | Application route |
|---|---|
| Language school | Directly to the school |
| Secondary school | Directly to the school |
| Foundation | Directly to the provider |
| Undergraduate | UCAS, up to five choices |
| Master's | The university's own portal |
| Doctorate | The university's own portal |
03
How and when are UK university applications made?
Undergraduate applications are made centrally through UCAS with up to five programme choices, and master's and doctoral applications through each university's own portal. The equal consideration deadline for 2027 entry is 13 January 2027 for undergraduate applications.
Postgraduate deadlines are set programme by programme rather than nationally, and some run on rolling admission. That is why the timetable is built from the chosen programmes rather than from a general calendar.

Seven short questions, one tap each. In return you get a costed sheet worked out from how many people are coming, what scale you are looking at and whether it is London — alongside the steps in months, the documents and the published rules.
04
How much are tuition fees in the UK?
On the cap published by GOV.UK, full-time undergraduate tuition is at most £9,790 for the 2026/27 academic year, and that cap applies within the England student finance system. International fees are set by each university.
There is no central tariff for international students, so a comparison is made programme by programme from each university's own fee page. The individual institution pages on this site each carry that source.
05
What are the published Student visa requirements?
GOV.UK bases a Student visa application on a CAS record from a licensed student sponsor. The published English level is CEFR B2 for degree-level courses and B1 below that, alongside evidence of funds for tuition and maintenance.
The full list of requirements, documents, fees and decision times is set out at the UK Student visa.
Can you stay in the UK after graduating?
The Graduate visa is a work permission granted to people who have completed a course at a recognised UK higher education provider, and it needs no employer sponsorship. GOV.UK gives undergraduate and master’s graduates two years where the application is made by 31 December 2026 and 18 months from 1 January 2027, and doctoral graduates three years; the application fee is £937 and the health surcharge £1,035 a year. The visa cannot be extended, so an application to switch to another route is made before it expires — which route is open is an assessment for a registered adviser.
06
What does British Global do in the education process?
British Global works separately for each student: it takes your grades, your budget and your target profession, produces a programme shortlist through an AI-assisted search, and sets out the timetable and the documents in writing.
- A written report shortlists programmes against grades, budget and goal.
- Deadlines and deposit dates are set on one timetable.
- The document list for each application is set out in order.
- Immigration questions are referred to a registered adviser.
