About This Service

What Is Malaysia to United Kingdom?

The United Kingdom offers one of the most time-efficient pathways to a prestigious internationally recognised degree — 3 years for an undergraduate degree (4 in Scotland), and just 1 year for a master's program. The Russell Group of 24 research-intensive universities includes some of the world's most employer-recognised institutions, and UK degrees carry strong brand recognition across Asia, the Middle East, and globally.

The UK Student Visa replaced the Tier 4 (General) Student Visa in 2021 and requires a CAS (Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies) number from your university, IELTS Academic (typically 6.0–7.0 depending on program), and financial evidence of funds. Edufly manages the full UK visa application process including the biometric residence permit (BRP) collection after arrival.

The Graduate Route — introduced in 2021 — allows international graduates from UK universities to remain in the UK for 2 years (3 for PhD graduates) to work or look for work without a job offer. This has significantly strengthened the UK as a post-study work destination for Malaysian students, particularly in finance, consulting, and technology.

FAQ

Malaysia to United Kingdom — Frequently Asked Questions

The CAS (Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies) is a unique reference number issued by a UK university once it has made you an unconditional offer of admission. The CAS contains information about your course, fees, and course start date. It is a prerequisite for the UK Student Visa application — you cannot apply for the visa without it. Edufly manages the CAS confirmation process as part of the admission and visa service.
Yes. The Graduate Route visa allows UK graduates to remain in the UK for 2 years (3 for PhD graduates) to work in any capacity — no job offer required and no employer sponsorship needed. It can be used to gain work experience, build career networks, or work while applying for a Skilled Worker visa if you secure employer sponsorship. Edufly advises on the Graduate Route application process and subsequent Skilled Worker pathways.
For the UK Student Visa, the IELTS for UKVI (UK Visas and Immigration) is the accepted test — not the standard academic IELTS. These are similar tests but the UKVI version is taken at specific UKVI-approved test centres. Some universities accept standard IELTS for admission but require UKVI IELTS for visa purposes. Edufly advises on exactly which test version is required for your specific university and visa application.
Yes. The UK Student Visa application is fully managed by Edufly's visa team as part of the United Kingdom migration package. We prepare all documentation, advise on financial evidence requirements, attend biometric appointments with you where permitted, and track the application through to decision. Our 98% first-attempt success rate reflects the quality of our visa preparation.
Edufly's United Kingdom migration service includes post-arrival support — connections to student communities, guidance on local banking and SIM card setup, health insurance registration, and an ongoing advisor relationship throughout your first year. We don't end the service at the airport. Our goal is to ensure you settle successfully and make the most of your time in United Kingdom.
