@justwise, thanks a bunch.

No worries, did u book ur connecting flight from heathrow to Leeds/Bradford airport or are u taking train from heathrow to Hull?

carfreak:

Guys,

Miss me, Well urs sincerely has been having a running battle trying to get paid before taking off. So i actually took gbaby87's agent and she's getting me a one way ticket to u know where via Emirates.I leave sat night. Its cheaper and i'm flying them for a change from Virgin.

Te-Amo, have a little faith, if u look at the calendar, there's only one working day left for applications to have been sent, which was the 26th because 29th was a bank holiday in the UK, 30th and 31st were public holidays in Nigeria. U may just get it.

This is what i advise u do, call your school. enough of this mail thing. Most times, if i send a mail and i dont get a response with 48hrs, i call. It creates a personal rapport and connotes seriousness. Call your school and speak with the international student officer asking for an extension. if they can, they should also send a mail to the consulate.

Again on Friday, call the call centre and see what they say. it aint over till the fat lady sings .

Dat was quite funny,thanks 4 ur advice i will surely buzz dem 2day

Sir_Lipton:


Lmaooo Te- Amo, they're not serious . my Friend submitted on the 8th of this month and got his on the 16th. He lives in Warri so he couldnt pick it up till Monday ( which was yesterday). And he got it. I put in my application exactly a week ago from today and I'm sure it's almost ready. My other friend went to the collection centre today and said it was almost empty, The number of applications are dropping so, calm down. You may just get it before the week runs out. All you need is faith.

@Sir_Lipton,thanks i really appreciate ur reply.

@justwise, am going to manchester airport then would find my way. What do u thk?

pandora__:

@justwise, am going to manchester airport then would find my way. What do u thk?

Ok, Manchester to Hull is not that far depending on ur means of transport. You can take National express from Manchester airport to Hull or take train.

@justwise, thanks 4 d info. Do the trains go straight to hull?

pandora__:

@justwise, thanks 4 d info. Do the trains go straight to hull?

Yes, both train and coach goes straight to Hull, contact ur uni, they should be able to pick u up at train or Coach station

@justwise. Their arrival period was for 19th and 20th. After that, we wud have 2 find our way ourselves. Thanks anyway, wud find my way

@SirLipton I submitted @ Abuja. Had earlier decided that if I wait after 10working days I will call them. Guess I will have to call them today. Congrats @rabidvirus

pandora__:

Oh ok, then u will be fine, every tax or bus driver knows the uni, and its not far from the station. Good luck

This BHC people no de gree pick call o! Is that d same experience that u guys had with them? I have been calling them intermittently for 2hours now

Whew

Finally my deadline has finally been moved to 3rd of October by d school authorities(and updated @ d embassy).

Thanks carfreak n sir_lipton.

now isnt that better,

so any news from piouson? the dude just sort of faded.

Hey everyone! This is an amazing thread, I wish I found this before I applied and make a complete cock up of the whole thing. Anyway I'm in a huge mess. I made many mistakes in my application but when I was given my notice of refusal, the letter was blank.Seriously. It had no reasons for refusal. It said and I quote: Insert here for reason 1. Confused.com. I'm clueless as to what to do now. Reapply or get an admin review? Or does anyone know whom I should contact to get some answers? Any suggestions would be very welcome. Also some clarification: I'm being sponsored for my MSc by my mum. The money she has though is enough for the maintenance and tuition BUT it is in two savings accounts. Must all our money be in ONE account? Also, I have my own money saved, can I include this? I would be exceedingly grateful if my queries are responded to urgently. My programme starts early October. Thanks!

Ps. Could @justwise and other gurus assist?

What are the mistakes u made? What documents did u submit?

Thanks @justwise. Well, my mistakes were:
1. My CAS didn't reflect that I had paid my tuition fees. It showed only my deposit and the money I had in my accounts was only enough for maintenance.
2. I did not include the OANDA printout.
3. I indicated that I had money in my own account AND said I had money in my parents'. I'm not sure if this counts as a mistake though.
My errors were mainly money related. But I'm not sure how to proceed from this point.

I included my birth certificate, Cambridge O'Level (for English), University degree cert, my account statement, parent's account statement, sponsorship letter.

I do understand where u are coming from, you can still re-apply and be successful, but the sticking issue now is whether ur school will be able to give u an extension else u may have to settle for Jan or Feb admission season.

my school (imperial) has a 2 week grace window, so if my reapplication goes through as quickly as the initial did, i'll be fine. i just dont want to make any more mistakes (and waste even more money.) so if i get a corrected cas and include the exchange rate info, will i be good to go? or will the accounts trip me up? thanks!

@diva11 they just sent me a mail saying they cant send to the specified address i gave them o! i added on on yahoo chat, can u please come online so we can talk about this. I need some things cleared. Thanks

Well. . as long u have the complete maintenance fees, sort out the CAS issue then u stand a chance. Just make sure that the money has being on those 2 accounts for 28days and not more than a month after that 28days.

Thank you very very much @justwise! God will confuse you with blessings! LOL! One more question: you can use a fixed deposit account for your maintenance, right?
