Can I study in the UK on a Youth Mobility visa?

Yes, you can study in the UK on a Youth Mobility visa. The Youth Mobility Scheme allows foreign nationals to study in the country for up to two years.  The Youth Mobility scheme holder can choose from most courses, but some may require an Academic Technology Approval Scheme certificate (ATAS).

 

An ATAS is a UK government scheme certificate provided to non-UK nationals as a clearance for some study subjects that could potentially threaten the country.
