Can I apply for the Graduate visa from India?ShowHide
No. It is an in-country application only. If you leave the UK after your course without applying, the route is closed to you. We can inform you and refer you to a regulated adviser in the UK, but the application is theirs to handle.

Applications made on or after that date get 18 months instead of 24. PhD graduates keep 36 months. The date of application is what counts, not the course end date, so some students will apply as soon as the university has reported completion.
What does the Graduate visa cost?ShowHide
The Home Office application fee plus the health surcharge at £1,035 a year for the full length. Our fee calculator shows the rupee total for 18, 24 and 36 months.
