This information can be found here: View and prove your immigration status – GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)
We advise EU students regularly check www.gov.uk for latest information. In addition, further guidance can be found on the Student Finance website www.gov.uk/student-finance. If you require further details we would like you to email admissions@ucp.ac.uk.
