"Very good but"

Robert Niessen, student from Netherlands

Very good teachers, very friendly and helpful staf, great location. The only thing that could be better: the very first day it was clear that the group level was too low for me, os the second day I could join a small group that was preparing for their stoefl exam and the next 1,5 week I just went along with them. Looking back it would have been better/more professional if they had tested me (the online before hand was too easy) and would have worked out with me a programm to work on my weak spots.

visa

Visa support

We cannot apply for visas on behalf of students. However, the school can supply you with all the documentation you need to support your visa application.

If you are studying in the UK for over 11 months, you will receive a reference number called a Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS) that you need to submit to the UK embassy along with your General Student Visa application. Students who have successfully booked a language course and have paid their fees will receive a CAS from OEC. Please note that UK law states that a CAS can only be issued to students who intend to pursue English language studies for over 11 months.

If you are studying in the UK for 11 months or less, you have to apply for a special visitor visa called a Student Visitor Visa. As a student visitor, you will not be able to work part-time while studying. If you plan to study in the UK for 11 months or less, a letter of acceptance will be sent to your home address by regular mail at no charge to you.
