Confirmation of Registration Certificate

Research Student Administration (RSA) can produce an official registration certificate confirming that you are a registered student at University of Leeds. You may need a registration certificate for a variety of reasons, including but not limited to obtaining a reduction in council tax, opening a bank account, or for the purposes of your sponsor. RSA is also able to produce a certificate confirming your past registration at the University

Confirmation of Acceptance for Study Number CAS (this is for International Students applying for a student visa only)

In order for you to apply/renew for a student visa, the University of Leeds must obtain a CAS number from the UK Border Agency.  You will then use this number when submitting your visa application.  This number confirms that the University of Leeds supports your request for a student visa.  Please note the University can only issue a CAS and we cannot issue registration certificate for this purpose.  

Please note that if you require a CAS for visa purposes, and you are undertaking research in the areas of science, engineering or technology disciplines, and your nationality is non UK/European Economic Area (including Switzerland), then you will need to apply for an ATAS Clearance Certificate.
