For my January intake in the UK, the university has asked me to attend a CAS interview online. Is it similar to a visa interview, and will failing it affect my admission?
The CAS (Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies) interview is not the same as a visa interview, but it is an important step in the UK admission process. Universities sometimes conduct this online interview to verify your documents, confirm your intention to study, and ensure you meet the requirements before issuing your CAS letter, which is needed to apply for your student visa.
Failing the CAS interview is rare if your documents are complete and your intentions are clear. The university is mainly checking your eligibility, course understanding, and financial preparedness. As long as you are well-prepared, answer questions confidently, and provide accurate information, it should not negatively affect your admission.
We can guide you on how to prepare for common questions and present your application clearly, so you feel confident during the CAS interview.
