1. Insufficient Financial Evidence

- Not showing the correct amount required for tuition and living expenses.
- Bank statements not meeting UKVI requirements (e.g., funds not held for 28 consecutive days, statements not in the correct format, or from unrecognized banks).
- Not providing evidence of source of funds if there has been a recent large deposit.

2. Incorrect or Incomplete Documentation
