1. CAS number
CAS number is a unique reference number provided by UK Visas and Immigration (UKVI). It is only valid for six months after the issue date. For this reason, it is advised that you apply for your student visa during this period.
2. Study programme details
The details of your study programme are also written in the CAS statement, including the start and finish date of your study, course or major you will be taking, tuition fee, etc.
3. Personal details
