Questions to ask yourself prior to making payment:

We would require students to say yes to both of the questions below prior to making payment;

1.Have you discussed your visa extension with the staff at the Gateway? If not, please do so before paying the fee for the CAS.

2.Are you a continuing student, e.g. repeating modules or extending your visa to complete a full-time course?

If you are a new student please contact Admissions(0191 515 3154) to obtain a CAS.

Detailed Description

A CAS is the confirmation of acceptance of studies from the University – this means that the University of Sunderland will sponsor you during the period you are studying here. If your Tier 4 student visa is due to expire you will need a CAS should you need to extend your current leave to complete your course.

Please note: A CAS can take up to five working days to be generated so do not leave it too late when requesting a CAS from the Gateway. Click this link to find out what we require from you to produce a CAS

If you have any issues regarding your CAS please contact International Student Support on 0191 515 2688 or 0191 515 3082.
