University of Sheffield提醒使用访客签证或是免签入英国者是无法注册的，且在英国境内无法直接转换为学生签证。若学生以访客签证入境，将会被要求离境并以学生签证重新入境及注册课程。

各系最晚参加课程日期如下，学生须在该日前完成注册并参加课程，为避免注册延误以至於无法参加课程，学生须尽早完成注册。若无法在该日期前到校参与课程，除非已知会系上获得许可，否则不建议前往英国，且学校将会取消学生CAS。

We are looking forward to welcoming you to Sheffield. If you require a Student visa for your course at the University of Sheffield, please apply for your CAS and visa as soon as you are able to. You must wait until you have received your Student visa before you travel to the UK.

Please note, you will not be permitted to register on your course if you have entered the UK as a visitor (this includes electronic waiver visa, and where you are a non-visa national travelling to the UK without a visa and entering for 6 months either through an e-gate or by getting a stamp from a Border Force Officer). It is not possible to switch from Visitor leave to the Student route within the UK, so it is important that you obtain your Student visa before travelling to the UK. If you enter the UK as a visitor rather than with your Student visa, you will be required to leave the UK and re-enter on your Student visa in order to register on your course.

If you have any concerns that you may not be able to arrive in time for your course start date, please visit the following webpage to find out the latest date you will be permitted to start your course: www.sheffield.ac.uk/new-students/registration/earlier-start-dates

The 'last possible start date' is the latest date that you can start attending your course. You must complete your registration before you can attend your course. In some instances registration may take several days to complete so you should allow adequate time to register in advance of the latest possible start date in case of any delays.

Please note that if you are unable to arrive by this date you will not be allowed to join the course. In these circumstances, we would advise you not to travel to the UK, unless you have prior permission from your department to join the course. If you cannot register on the course the University will have to withdraw sponsorship and your student visa will be curtailed (cancelled).
