Why it matters
Matching that works for you, not for the university
Matched on fit, not fees
We rank every result by entry requirements, real tuition fees, and course outcomes against your situation. The shortlist you get is the one that fits you best.
Verify on the official page
Every tuition figure we show links to the university's own website. We verify, you confirm. No inflated numbers, no hidden markups.
Student visa, done right
Once you have your university offer, we prepare the student visa using the same verified rules and risk scorer as every other Rekoja route.

We match against the database

Already have a university offer?
After the offer
Student visa preparation
Once you have a Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS), Rekoja prepares the student visa application using verified rules and the same risk scorer as every other route.
Get your CAS
Your university issues a Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS) once you have an unconditional offer. You need this before applying for the visa.
Score your file
Rekoja checks your financial evidence against the current official requirements for your corridor: maintenance funds, how long you have held them (the 28-day rule for UK routes), English score, CAS details, and credential recognition. You see your risk band before paying anything.
Build the evidence pack
Tailored checklist, bank statement guidance, cover letter template, and the full document set, all referenced to the official requirement for your corridor and dated.
File and track
File through the official government portal. Track every stage in the Rekoja dashboard: biometric appointment, any pre-clearance requirement, and the decision.

Common questions
Is the university matching really free?
Yes. You pay us nothing for the recommendation. When you enrol through Rekoja, the university pays us a standard placement fee. That is how the matching stays free for you. It is recorded privately, never influences your results, and we never inflate tuition figures. Every number links directly to the university's own website.
Do you only cover UK universities?
University matching is UK-led for now. Student visa preparation covers any country: UK, Canada, Australia, Germany, Netherlands, and beyond, using verified rules for our corridors and live official-source guidance for every other country.
What happens after I get my university offer?
Once you have an unconditional offer and a CAS, we move into student visa preparation: risk score, tailored checklist, financial evidence guidance, and optional caseworker review. The full Prepare toolkit is available.
Can Rekoja help if I have already received a refusal on a student visa?
Yes. A refusal is a risk factor and must be declared. The risk scorer accounts for it, explains what the refusal means for your next application, and tells you what to fix.
