STUDY IN THE UK
Be a part of our exceptional educational experience.
We regularly welcome international students* from a variety of countries to join our school community. International families choose Cumnor House because of our commitment to a values-based education, academic excellence and superb facilities, as well as our consistently outstanding offers for destination schools.
All students – British, EU and international – are charged the same fees, regardless of nationality or immigration status.
*International students are those with nationalities other than UK or Irish who are subject to immigration control.
International Admissions.
Students who are non-native English speakers will be asked to meet online with a member of our Senior Leadership Team, who will informally assess their English language level. Following this, the school will then advise if the student would benefit from additional support with their English prior to enrolment and/or during the first year of their studies.
English as an Additional Language (EAL).
Pupils who need support with English as an Additional Language prior to enrolment and/or during the first year of their studies may be referred to the English language school, Ardmore. Ardmore have over 35 years’ experience supporting young English learners and have recently developed an online platform – Ardmore X – to support teacher-led and independent study.
Ardmore can support international pupils prepare for life at school in the UK in the weeks and months prior to the start of term. They can also support pupils throughout their first few terms with us, scheduling online English lessons outside of the standard school day.
International pupils requiring sponsorship on Child Student and/or Student visas will be asked to pay the full year of tuition fees upfront.
International pupils are those with nationalities other than UK or Irish who are subject to immigration control.
International students who receive an offer to study at Cumnor House will be asked to accept their place by completing and returning an acceptance form and paying a deposit equal to one term’s fees. The international deposit will be returned at the end of a student’s time at the school, providing appropriate notice has been given and all fees have been settled.
Please contact the school Admission Manager if you would like to discuss visa sponsorship. The team will be glad to support you throughout your application and subsequent studies. Families are asked to settle the academic year’s fees in full and pay a £600 administration fee for each Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS) in advance of sponsorship. The Admission Manager can provide information to parents of students aged 4 to 11 years old who wish to join their children in the UK under the Parent of a Child Student visa route. We also welcome international students who are dependents of their parents’ investor, skilled worker, and diplomatic visas, as well as those who come to the UK under many other immigration routes. If you are unsure whether your child needs a Child Student visa, we recommend taking the UK Visas questionnaire to establish the most suitable immigration route for your family.
