FCV International Football Academy welcomes students from around the world. As a result, a visa may be required to allow entrance into the UK, as immigration control in the UK affects everyone who is not a British passport holder.
FCV’s Admissions Team, in partnership with Loughborough College’s Admissions Team, provides support and guidance for all players and families throughout the student visa application process.
At the end of the process, students will receive a CAS Statement (Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies), which allows international students to study in the UK. The CAS Statements will be issued by Loughborough College once the following processes have been completed (FCV Admissions will provide support for families in this process).
