If you are travelling from outside the United Kingdom to attend a graduation ceremony then you and/or your guests may require a visa. The Imperial College International Student Support team can assist with specific visa enquiries.

Letters to support your Visa application

We are unable to provide visa support letters for graduands who are yet to be awarded. 

Please check the UK Government guidance on whether you need a visa to travel to London. The International Student Support may also be able to provide guidance on submitting your application. 

If you or your guest(s) require a supporting visa invitation letter from Imperial College London, this can be requested in the Visa Letter Support form.
Please note, that only graduands who have been awarded in the university's systems, and invited to graduate, will be able to complete the form. 

Obtaining a visa may take several weeks and it is your responsibility to ensure you have completed all legal requirements before you travel.
