Case Study: University of Brighton achieves automated, compliant Right to Study checks with NorthRow

University of Brighton - Customer Case Study

University of Brighton, a Tier 4 sponsor with roughly 12% international students, faced an unmanageable manual process for Right to Study checks: scanning, printing and re‑entering passport and visa data, tracking expiries across multiple campuses, and keeping staff up to date with Home Office legislation. To solve this they engaged NorthRow for an automated Right to Study/document verification solution.

NorthRow implemented its automated document verification service and gold‑standard Identity Document Scanner (UV/IR checks), storing authenticated documents in a searchable, GDPR‑compliant database with visa‑expiry alerts. The result was faster, more consistent passport and visa checks, reduced waiting times in enrolment, easier monitoring of visa expiries and improved compliance—delivering time and cost savings while helping the University meet Home Office requirements.
