What document is needed?


To demonstrate status as a refugee/asylum seeker/forced migrant we would need at least one of the following:

Evidence of immigration status from eVisa issued by UKVI

Biometric Residence Permit

Application Registration Card (ARC) – asylum seekers only

Letter of support from registered educational refugee charity such as Refugee Education UK if they have been supporting you

How do I upload my document?


Please save your document as a pdf file with the file name in this specific format: 

4 - Subject - FAMILY NAME First name - Refugee document - UCAS Personal ID (with no dashes)

Here's a fictional example: for the fictional Asha Silva applying for Natural Sciences (Biological) with UCAS Personal ID 1566276477, the file name would be
