Institutions in the UK are “considerably ahead of the game” for the upcoming autumn intake, with overall CAS issuance, deposits and visa issuances up year-on-year.
CAS-to-visa issuance rates also have sped up by more than 8% compared to last year, according to the data from student onboarding platform Enroly.
Data analysis showed 73% of UK clients had “launched their intake on CAS shield” at least five months before their courses begin. In September 2022, just 14% were launching in such a time frame.
Across the platform’s 100,000 or so international offers, visa issuances were up 62% on 2022 numbers, while CAS issuances were up 11.4% and deposits paid also increased by 11.7%.
