How long does the UK student visa application take, especially during peak periods?

GlobalCareers: How long does the UK student visa application take, especially during peak periods?

It is usually minimum of 6 weeks, but since NDDC has an MoU with some U.K schools and obviously with the embassy it will take less than 6 weeks for us....#HappySunday#teamOptimistic...

Is it possible for someone to change university immediately after arriving the UK?

GlobalCareers: Is it possible for someone to change university immediately after arriving the UK?

I'm sorry you cannot. The reason being that your CAS is attached to your visa, i.e The school that offered you CAS is responsible for your stay in the UK.

I understand that study funds should be kept in a bank account for 28 days. But are we presenting a bank statement for the past 1 month or 2 mnths or 6 mnths?

NDDC should pls give us greenlight this week....cos of the short time left in stocking our acct with d necessary funds as well as the time needed in obtaining d student visa

How do I go about in borrowing funds to be in my acct. I have not found anyone to borrow from yet? Do I have to consult my bank or what other options?

That shld be within 3.2m. Getting from different sources is a good idea. But it won't be easy coz the money is much.

Don't worry abt meeting d financial conditions for d visa. The award letter covers everything. The 28days rule does not apply to scholarshp-funded study frm recognized govt and corporate institutions- which nddc is among. For the visa processing time, it usually takes 2wks, 3wks up to 4wks at peak periods. One can still meet up as most UK schools resume last week (btw 28-30th ) of september, deadline extending to 1st week of Oct for int'l students.

don't expect anything this week from nddc. I'm very certain that their public holidays will continue throughout this week as far as this Ramadan is concern.August 6th looks more realistic.

The award letter only covers everything if your fees+maintenance can be settled with the scholarship funding. If it doesn't then you sure have to show proof of the outstanding balance left.

Noted. However, if nddc approves one's school, it's a full funding.

please I hope u don't mind clarifying this:

Let's say Uni A is on NDDC's approved list, and the tuition fee is £16k. This leaves the scholar with insufficient funds to cover living expenses going by the visa requirements standards.

So are u implying that NDDC may have some sort of partnership with the university to assist scholars...with maybe accommodation ?

I'm just trying to understand what u meant by full funding. thanks.

yes they are in partnership wt about 12 UK varsities whose tuition fees and cost of living are in tandem with nddc award money.
