To be considered domiciled in the UK, the student has to have settled status in the UK, meaning that the student has the right to leave and return to the UK as they please. A person has settled status if they were born with British citizenship and either have 3 years’ residence in the UK, or have lived elsewhere and returned to the UK before the first day of the academic year of their course (usually 1st September).
