Going to the UK as a student vistor, what is the process for applying for entry clearance prior to arrival?

Question

I will be going this September and so what do I need to do in order to obtain entry clearance before I get there? I am from the United States and I also know about their website (www.ukvisas.gov.uk/en/howtoapply/infs/s...

But still I am unsure. Please help. Thank you.

Answer 1

Yes, you need to apply for the visa on the website online.

However, you don't need to worry about the application would be to late, since you are entitled to stay for 6 months in the UK without a visa as a US passport holder.
