also it will take her time to settle and adjust to the british school system

i suppose she could apply to go to college if she came in march next year, to start in sept.

i think she will have to pay international student fees for her going to college, could be £3,000 a year and then for uni to..

as Non-EEA nationals are required to be here for 3 years before the start date of their course to apply for home fees

i'm pretty sure what i've said here is correct, but check with a college or with the immigration people

hi and thanks joe,

thats what ive been thinking the sooner the better, but the thing is she's already more than half of the school year she's attending now in the philippines, i wonder if they will include half of the school year she attended when they 'i suppose' evaluate her into what grade or level she will be in.

my daughter will turn 15 this coming november and our first plan is to apply for her visa by at least end of november, it will take almost 3 mos for the visa to be granted (i wish) plus if there will be any interview, it will be around feb of next year, and since the school ends there by march and if she will be granted a visa by around feb or march, we might be able to let her come here by march and at the same time she completed the school year she's attending to right now.

omg! International School Fee of £3000 ...me and husbands been working day and night and now if we also have to pay for these we might as well have 2 or 3 jobs more....
