The quickest and easiest way to find out whether you need a Visa is to check via this link here.

EU, EEA and Swiss citizens can travel to the UK for holidays or short trips without needing a visa. This applies now, after Brexit.

For those that do require a Visa, the application that you will need to apply for is the Standard Visitor Visa.

It is important to note that, depending on the country, applications can take around 20 working days (or 3-4 weeks) to process. You are advised to begin the application process as early as possible. Once the Visa is obtained, we will need to receive a scanned copy of the student’s passport and the Visa by email. SBC International reserves the right to cancel a booking, if a copy of the Visa has not been received 4 weeks before the course arrival date.

If you have any queries regarding the application process, please contact your local embassy who should be able to offer you the correct support and guidance.

Yes, if you would like to make any amendments to your booking then you can do so by contacting your Admissions Manager.
