UK Student Visa from Pakistan: 2025 Requirements & Interview Tips

The UK remains a top destination for Pakistani students seeking world-class education, with over 11,000 student visas granted last year. However, 2025 introduces stricter financial evidence requirements, making thorough preparation essential. Applicants must provide a 28-day bank statement showing sufficient funds, with a minimum of £1,334 per month for London-based students. CAS letters also play a crucial role, as errors in documentation are among the leading causes of visa refusals. ANZECOM’s Triple-Check service ensures all documents meet UKVI standards, reducing the risk of rejection.

Pakistani students continue to favor prestigious institutions such as UCL, Manchester, and Coventry, where tuition fees range from £16,000 to £24,000 per year. ANZECOM’s UCAS partners streamline the application process, helping students secure conditional offers efficiently. Early applications, particularly before June, improve scholarship opportunities, including Chevening and Commonwealth awards.

Visa interviews assess whether applicants are genuine students. Common questions include why they chose the UK over Pakistan. Strong responses, such as highlighting the UK’s QS-ranked AI programs and their alignment with Fintech career goals, can strengthen an applicant’s case. ANZECOM’s mock interview sessions prepare students for these critical assessments.

Post-study work visas, lasting two to three years, make the UK an attractive option for long-term career prospects. ANZECOM’s 98% visa success rate reflects its expertise in SOP drafting, accommodation support, and overall application guidance.
