Nah. It isn't very much mandatory as it depends on the school. My school insisted I wrote it though but then they didn't include it in my CAS as requirements to take to the embassy.

I know for Salford also that it isn't so it depends on the school really but it's good to find out from your school plus rules change all the time.

I didnt write, but i got the visa. My school determined that my level of english was okay and they included it in my CAS that they have determined that i have the required knowledge.

Mighty imperial sef na C4 while most schools want to hear that u received bsc in English and Dat covers anything about language

Thank u all for candid responses. Am great full. What about CAS? How do I get it? Should mail d school about it?

wish these results would just come out

it's been a while, however I'm not surprised about the status quo. esp since change is here.
However it's nice to know some of you from last year and some others with their own funds are already on their way.
just a few advice for them.
You can spend up to two hours before you are cleared by immigration so factor that into your arrival time, and if possible try to make it to your destination on thesame day. If your school has a pick up service (which is usually free and will be available till like 5pm local time) try to use it. to use a pick up service you will need to arrive at the designated airport and be cleared by immigration before say 5pm, you might also need to furnish your school with your travel details.
On cold weather clothing, just buy a few, at least one winter jacket, boot -(not boot for site work oh), jeans, chinox, headwarmer, gloves, etc one each because of baggage allowance on your flight.
Duvet and Bedspread and blanket, you definitely need them. If u are staying in a University's owned accommodation some might provide it for you while others will not let you in until you present these items. However as a black man or even white man living in Nigeria you definitely need them. I will recommend a duvet and a thick blanket, for certain weathers, just one of them is needed, however you will most definitely be combining both of them in winter.
Finally for those of you not flying directly as in flights with multiple stops and longer than twelve hours, plan your flight such that a day delay doesn't disrupt other activities.

Application was in my court because I chose the days favourable for me to do tb test and visa interview.




It actually took like one week after I did the interview to get back my documents and visa.

The interview was a chat via video chat with a physiologist I presume.

Questions like why uk? Why the course you chose, If you've gotten accommodation, when is your program starting, etc.

bro imperial will still give a conditional offer even with C4, you'll still have to do the ielts to get an unconditional offer

Someone should please help us with updates from nddc.
