In order to enter the UK legally to study you need to obtain a student visa from your nearest British embassy or consulate. To apply for a visa you need to produce the following documentation:
1. A letter from the college, university, etc to show that you have been accepted and have enrolled on a course of daytime study of at least 15 hours per week.
2. Proof that you have paid all or part of the fees and have the necessary funds to pay any outstanding fees.
3. Proof that you have arranged your accommodation and that you have the necessary funds to pay for it and to pay for you own living expenses. You may take a part time job - however you MUST be able to support yourself and any dependants without it.
4. That you have the intention and ability to leave the UK at the end of your studies.
5. Lastly don't forget that visas can take time to issue - don't leave it until the last minute to apply.
