International pupils
We have a number of international pupils in the school and we welcome applications from around the world.
We hold a Tier 4 Sponsor Licence and may obtain study visas for the right candidates. Please indicate that a visa would be required at the time of application. Students making a visa application will be required to pay a term’s fees upon acceptance of a place.
International applicants should provide as much detail as possible regarding courses completed and examinations to date. The application process will mirror that of domestic students but in instances where an international applicant is unable to attend in person we may be able to make arrangements for examinations to be taken elsewhere.
If you are visiting the UK, please contact us to arrange a visit to the school at a mutually convenient time.
The application fee for students residing overseas is £240. If you wish to apply, please click on the link at the top of the page.
To discuss any of the above with us, please email admissions@syd.gdst.net or call the Admissions department on 020 8557 7004.
