University of Sheffield提醒使用訪客簽證或是免簽入英國者是無法註冊的，且在英國境內無法直接轉換為學生簽證。若學生以訪客簽證入境，將會被要求離境並以學生簽證重新入境及註冊課程。

各系最晚參加課程日期如下，學生須在該日前完成註冊並參加課程，為避免註冊延誤以至於無法參加課程，學生須盡早完成註冊。若無法在該日期前到校參與課程，除非已知會系上獲得許可，否則不建議前往英國，且學校將會取消學生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).
