The UK has recently released a major update on the maintenance funds required for international students, and if you’re planning to study in the UK, this affects you directly.
Here’s the new rule:
From November 11, 2025, the amount you must show in your account for your visa will increase to:
Inner London: £1,529 per month
Outside London: £1,171 per month
This figure is usually multiplied by 9 months, so your total proof of funds will now be calculated using these new numbers.
What this means is simple:
If you’re targeting schools in London, your required bank balance will be higher. If you choose schools outside London, your financial burden becomes lighter.
The good part is that this update gives you enough time to plan ahead, pick the right school, sort your finances, and apply strategically.
At BeyondBorders, this is exactly what we help you do: pick the right location, the right course, the right deposit plan, and the right financial strategy so you don’t get stuck or rejected.
If you want us to help you map out the best schools that fit your budget even with this new update, send a DM or click the link in our bio.
Your journey to the UK is still possible. You just need the right guidance.
