The condition to come in force from February 22
26 January 2010: Any student applying by post or at one of UK Border Agency’s public enquiry offices to study in the UK under Tier 4 of the points-based system must possess a confirmation of acceptance for studies (CAS) from their prospective sponsor from 22 February 2010.
The Agency has made it clear that a student will not be able to apply under Tier 4 using a visa letter from that date, even if the visa letter was issued before 22 February 2010.
Until 21 February 2010, you can continue to apply under Tier 4 using a visa letter, even if your course of study will start after 22 February 2010, the Agency said.
Additional information on applying to study under Tier 4 of the points-based system is included in 'Immigration Rules for Student Visas ' in this website.
