A recognised bachelor's degree may support direct master's entry, but classification, prerequisites and English thresholds remain programme-specific.

    Bangladesh academic preparation

    Undergraduate: HSC/Alim acceptance and any foundation requirement vary by university and programme; use the institution's Bangladesh entry page.

    Postgraduate: A recognised bachelor's degree may support direct master's entry, but classification, prerequisites and English thresholds remain programme-specific.

    Do not generalise one university's HSC, bachelor-equivalence or English waiver policy to another.

    Parent funding checklist

    • • Price the exact course, deposit and refund terms
    • • Keep the 28-day funds rule separate from normal spending
    • • Add surcharge, visa, travel and a currency buffer
    • • Do not rely on term-time work to close the funding gap
    Bangladesh preparation

    Build the sponsor file before the money has to move.

    This is a preparation sequence, not a visa approval checklist. Keep the student's academic story, the family's funding story, and every payment receipt consistent and traceable.

    Review by 2026-08-20

    What the official route says

    The UK accepts specified sources such as the student's own money, a parent's money with the parent's consent letter, qualifying student loans, or official sponsorship. Parent-held funds must be in an account the parent controls.

    Timing consequence

    Required funds normally must be held for 28 consecutive days, and the most recent financial evidence must be no more than 31 days old on the visa-application date.

    Before application

    1. Name the real funding parties

      List the student, each parent or other sponsor, scholarship, and loan separately. Record who owns each account and how the student is related to every sponsor.

    2. Build a source-of-funds trail

      Keep the documents that explain salary, business income, savings growth, education loans, asset sales, or gifts. A balance alone may not explain how the money became available.

    3. Prepare one consistent academic file

      Check passport spelling against certificates, transcripts, translations, references, and the CV. Resolve name or date differences before a deadline is close.

    4. Work backwards from the intake

      Place the English test, result date, application deadline, scholarship deadline, and visa preparation window on one calendar, with time for one realistic retake.

    Before paying

    1. Record every payment condition

      Save the application-fee, tuition-deposit, credit-to-tuition, refund, deferral, and visa-refusal terms before remitting money. Mark which amounts can be lost.

    2. Keep a currency and bank-charge buffer

      Recalculate the BDT requirement with a current bank rate before each payment. Include remittance charges and do not treat a dated planning rate as a guaranteed transaction rate.

    Before visa

    1. Reopen the official checklist

      Use the exact destination, institution, applicant, and dependant situation. Save the version used and recheck it immediately before submission.

    Official rule checked 2026-07-21. Requirements can change and the visa authority or institution may ask for additional evidence.

    Named scholarship

    Chevening Scholarship - Bangladesh

    Checked 2026-07-20

    Level: One-year taught master's

    Bangladesh eligibility: Bangladesh has a country application route; the applicant must meet the current Chevening criteria.

    Coverage: Chevening describes the award as fully funded; confirm the current allowance and permitted course terms.

    Deadline: Annual cycle; use the live Bangladesh page for opening and closing dates.

    Application: Apply through Chevening and separately meet the university/course requirements.

    Realism: Do not include it in the base budget before an award is confirmed. It is competitive and requires a credible leadership and post-study plan.
