You can travel abroad or to your home country during the Easter or Christmas vacation period. You must only travel during these periods - general term dates that apply to most students are available at https://www.beds.ac.uk/about-us/our-university/dates/

If you travel outside of the vacation periods you must seek permission from the International Office first.

If you need to provide a document to support your visa application, please log into e:vision, click on the my studies tab and download the registration status document. You may wish to provide a covering letter that includes the following:

• Country you are travelling to
• Purpose of the visit
• The dates you are traveling
  
  

If you have completed your course and are only returning to the UK for your graduation, then you can use the invitation email that the Graduation Office provide with the date and time of your graduation as evidence of why you are returning to the UK.
