CAS Shield explained

As an offer holder, you will use Enroly CAS Shield, our admissions partner platform, to manage the verification process required to issue your CAS.

The CAS application requires a thorough review of your personal data and supporting evidence. To ensure a smooth transition to your visa application, we urge you to begin this process as soon as you receive access.

What to Expect:

  • Access Invitation: You will be emailed a secure login link for the Enroly CAS Shield system once you become eligible to start the process.
  • Guided Upload: The online portal is designed to clearly guide you through the information checks and document uploads.
  • Documentation Required: Be prepared to upload all necessary records, such as your passport and other relevant documentation, to allow for timely verification. Completing these steps quickly will prevent delays in receiving your final CAS.

Important information about uploading documents

You should ensure that your documents are uploaded on to your application at the point you apply.  This includes copies of your passport and qualification certificates, for example. You do not need to upload financial evidence to your application.  You will be asked to upload some of the documents again when you access CAS Shield.

Next steps

After you successfully finish the information check, upload all required documents and complete a pre-CAS interview within Enroly CAS Shield, our Admissions team will begin reviewing your file.

Submitting this form is a mandatory step that allows us to process your Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS) and send the necessary compliance details to UK Visas and Immigration (UKVI).

Please note: We can only issue your CAS once your details are confirmed in Enroly CAS Shield AND you have met every condition specified in your original offer.
