Lets recent graduates of an eligible top global university come to the UK to work, look for work or be self-employed, without needing a job offer or sponsor.

To apply, you must have been awarded a qualification by an eligible university in the last 5 years.
Before you apply you must have your qualification verified, receiving a unique person identifier number or certificate from Ecctis.
You'll usually need to prove you can read, write, speak and understand English to at least level B2 when you apply.
Complete the application on gov.uk. It costs the £880 application fee plus the healthcare surcharge, and you'll usually need at least £1,270 in savings.
