New Delhi, India – August 21, 2025: Leap, South Asia’s largest study-abroad platform, today announced the launch of its innovative AI-powered CAS Interview Practice Tool, designed to help Indian students effectively prepare for crucial UK university interviews. This groundbreaking solution has already played a pivotal role in achieving an impressive visa approval rate for Leap students applying to UK universities this year at the time of writing (visa filing for the year is ongoing).
The CAS (Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies) interview is a decisive step in a student’s admission process for UK universities, directly influencing their visa approval outcome. Recognising the barriers students face- especially those from Tier II and Tier III cities who often lack access to quality interview preparation- Leap’s new AI-driven tool democratises preparation by providing free, scalable, and expert-level training.
Powered by Leap’s proprietary AI technology, the CAS Interview Practice Tool delivers realistic simulated interview scenarios, instant evaluation of student responses, and personalised feedback aligned closely with expectations of UK universities. The platform is customised to the specific university and programme of the application, further enhancing relevance and preparation outcomes. Most of the students from the first intake who completed the CAS mock interview workflow on the Leap platform successfully cleared their university interviews, underscoring the tool’s immediate effectiveness.
“Many talented students fail to secure UK university admissions simply due to inadequate interview preparation,” said Arnav Kumar, Co-founder and CEO of Leap. “Our AI-powered CAS Interview Practice Tool doesn’t just provide mock scenarios-it builds genuine confidence and clarity. By making expert-level coaching accessible and free, we’re helping level the playing field for thousands of ambitious Indian students.”
“At Leap, our mission is to use technology to remove barriers for students pursuing global education. The CAS Interview Practice Tool, powered by AI and real student data, delivers authentic interview simulations and personalized feedback,” said Rajan Chaudhary, Co-Founder of Leap. “This ensures every student, regardless of background, can prepare with confidence for one of the most critical stages of their UK admissions journey.”
Since its pilot, the CAS Interview Practice Tool has been widely adopted, with an overwhelming majority of Leap’s student community using it as a key part of their UK visa preparation. Among these users, a significant portion comes from traditionally under-represented regions such as Himachal Pradesh, Jammu and Kashmir, Gujarat, Telangana, and Jharkhand, reflecting the tool’s growing role in expanding access to quality support beyond major urban centers. In just two months, the platform has served thousands of applications with mock interview preparation. It has also supported applications across 198 UK universities, showcasing the breadth of its adoption.
The tool has received overwhelmingly positive feedback from early users, averaging a strong 4.8 out of 5-star rating. Students reported notable improvements in their communication skills, increased confidence and interview readiness factors crucial for successful admissions outcomes.
Built using authentic questions sourced from Leap’s active community of over 3 lakh students, this solution taps into years of data-driven insights about UK university admission trends and student challenges. Leap’s 590 B2B partners have also shared the platform with their students for CAS interview preparation, amplifying its reach and impact. Available on both desktop and mobile, Leap’s CAS Interview Practice Tool is entirely free, reinforcing Leap’s ongoing mission to break barriers in global education through innovation and technology.
