Every international student, one clear answer on their UK visa.

Students travel across the world to study with you. Give them a calm, accurate first answer on the UK visa rules — and take the routine questions off your advisers' desks.

The problem

International students are drowning in visa noise.

Applicants Google their visa questions and land on scam sites, out-of-date blogs and forum guesses — often before their Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS) is issued. The anxious ones flood your international office with the same routine questions ahead of the credibility interview; the ones who stay quiet risk getting it wrong. Your advisers spend their days on basics instead of the students who really need them.

Straight answers

Questions universities & colleges ask.

Does it help before the CAS and the credibility interview?

VisaBuddy doesn't issue a Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS) or represent a student — those sit with your institution and regulated advisers. It gives students an accurate first read on the published Student visa rules before their CAS is issued and ahead of the credibility interview, so they arrive better prepared.

Can we recommend VisaBuddy to applicants and students?

Yes. With the £250/year licence your students get unlimited free checks and unlimited appointment-ready reports. Share it in offer packs, CAS guidance, orientation and your international pages.

Does this replace our visa advisers?

No. VisaBuddy gives students accurate information from published GOV.UK rules; it never advises on an individual case. It reduces routine questions so your advisers focus on the students who need them.

Is student data safe?

Yes. Every check runs on the student's own device. Nothing is stored, there are no accounts and no tracking.
