    Help!

    I've been admitted to a part-time program at Cambridge and therefore cannot get a student visa. However, I'm engaged to a UK citizen and we're planning to move back. When we get married:

    1) how long will it take to get a visa?
    2) which visa should i apply for?
    3) how quickly will i be able to start studying?

    Thank you so much!

    whats your status right now? it is all dependant on your status.
    1- if married to uk citizen you can study and engage in any work you want and you dont need any visa .
    2-if not married to a uk citizen :

    i believe new regulation doesnt allow visitors to switch to student visa.
    also, usually you cant get a student visa for a part time course(it has to be more than 15 hours a week to be qualified for a student visa)
    processing time vary from 3 to 14 weeks, if needed you can apply at any PEO for £500 for same day service.
    if you be more specific i will very glad to help you
