[QUOTE="Jessica Booker, post: 146959, member: 2672"] Even when a student visa is required for a course, it is something you will have to arrange, rather than the firm. The firm will only be involved in work visas - they have no involvement in the student visa process. Yes - that is correct - the most likely outcome would be that you had a gap between completing your SQE and starting your TC. Depending on when you were recruited, this could be up to two years, not just one. Say for instance, you signed up to a SQE course this year and completed it in June 2024, most firms are starting their 2926 recruitment this cycle, and so you could have 2 years out. No - there is no chance of that if you have passed the SQE assessments. No firm has the power to do this, but also it makes no logical sense at all as it is a standardised exam. There is a slight chance of them asking you to do their preferred SQE course, but I can only see this happening if you have not sat the SQE assessments or have failed them on first sitting. [/QUOTE]
