Waiting for your CAS?
We are issuing CASs as quickly as we can, so please check the status of your CAS through your MyEd/EUCLID portal.
It is currently taking around 5-10 working days for a draft CAS to be issued. If you have requested a CAS via the applicant hub please do not send us a follow-up email as we will not be able to issue your CAS any quicker.
Please ensure you have completed all of the instructions at the link below.
REMEMBER - You will not get your CAS until you have accepted an unconditional offer.
DON'T WORRY! The standard application process from outside the UK normally takes no more than 3 weeks, so there's still plenty of time to make your visa application.
