根据英国驻沪总领事馆信息，8月8日至10月14日期间，在北京、广州和上海这三个签证申请中心，每个签证中心每天将向递交申请的第四层级申请人开放100个超级优先服务签证预约。

这项服务开放给所有18岁或以上申请第四层级普通学生签证的中国学生。只要申请人在早上11点前，亲自向北京、广州和上海这三个签证申请中心递交申请材料，“超级优先签证服务”的申请就会被最快处理。大部分情况下，签证决定会在签证申请在签证申请中心递交后的24个小时内做出，而普通签证审核时间的目标是15个工作日(3个星期)。不过，选择这项服务需要额外支付750英镑的费用，而且服务时间为周一至周五正常工作时间段内，任何在周五递交的申请，将在周一结束前处理。另外，需要指出的是，这项服务只是保证了对签证的快速审核，但并不保证签证申请一定会通过。

此次将“超级优先签证服务”推广至学生申请人只在中国开展。数据显示，在签证申请的忙季，英国签证及移民局每天在全中国范围内收到的第四层级申请最多可能达到800份。

对于这一面向中国学生的签证新政的颁布，英国签证及移民局亚太区总监表示：“英国继续欢迎希望在英国世界一流学府留学的最优秀的中国学生。将‘超级优先服务’ 推广至第四层级申请人是我们一系列变更中最新的一个。这些变更是为了为我们的客户提供更快速，更简单以及更便利的申请流程。”

如果此次在8月8日至10月14日这10周的试运行获得成功，那么英方考虑将永久性提供该服务。此外每天的预约量可能根据未来的需求进行上调。
