Can I study on a work visa in the UK?
Updated on Nov 20, 2023In most cases, you cannot study on a work visa in the UK. Work visas, such as the Tier 2 (General) or Skilled Worker Visa, are designed for individuals who have received a job offer from a UK employer and are coming to the UK to work. These visas typically do not grant permission to enrol in full-time academic programs or attend classes.
