UK: Test to Release information
From January 15th, passengers travelling to the UK will need to present a negative coronavirus test result upon departure. (Tests must have been taken no more than 72 hours prior.) Students will still need to quarantine in the UK upon arrival but will be able to reduce their quarantine period by taking a COVID 19 test.
The process is as follows:
- You can take a test after 5 whole days of self-isolation.
- Book and pay for a test in the UK before you travel. LSI will assist with this by providing information about accessible testing centres.
- Confirm that you want to join the “test and release” system on the online passenger locator form, which you should complete before you travel.
If the result from your COVID-19 test is inconclusive you must continue to self-isolate. You can choose to take another test privately.
London, Cambridge and Brighton have many private medical providers who can offer Covid tests and will provide up to date information on the best, fastest and most cost-effective test centres for each individual student on or before arrival.
Full information on the test to release systems is available on the UK government website:

Canada: Student visas for short-term programmes
The IRCC is aware that there is an issue in the [eligibility] questionnaire which does not present applicants the option to apply for a study permit if they plan to study for less than 6 months and do not require a temporary resident visa. They are currently working to address this issue.
In the meantime, applicants from visa-exempt countries who wish to apply for a study permit for a short-term program can indicate during the eligibility questionnaire that they intend to stay in Canada for longer than 6 months. This will generate their document checklist for a study permit application.
When they complete the application, the applicant should include their actual dates of study which reflect that they intend to study for less than 6 months.
For your reference, you may consult the operational instructions and guidelines of the IRCC on https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/publications-manuals/operational-bulletins-manuals/temporary-residents/study-permits/who-needs-study-permit.html.
