If you asking of north Cyprus(Turkish transit visa), it takes one week (only if it has change as of this session) ,that is assuming your visa interview is on Monday,u will get your passport/visa decision the next week Monday. It was a day before but changed to a week
Thank You Mr. Penroll55 for your answer and Good Morning. I was offered admission to EMU last year to begin studies by February this Month, me and my parents started the whole process of payments since 4th January 2016 and its been very hard because the banks my parents operate with couldn't pay the fees due to scarcity of dollars, i read about Diamond bank Form A in this thread, its been 2 weeks now since we started the whole signing of forms and the bank is still complaining that dollar hasn't arrived from CBN. Now, my Dad suggested that i should write to the school about deferment of admission till June due to the fact that it was stated on my admission letter that Proficiency of English Examination was gonna be on the 22nd of February and the Turkish Embassy advised that we should apply for visa 2-3 months before departure. Please my questions are as follows:
1. Is there any hope to still make it to cyprus this month?
2. What do you advice? because the bank process is still on and my mum is about to cancel it.
Please and Thank You.

To be sincere with you ,am not sure any school in Cyprus will give newly admitted student assistantship when you have not registered or done a semester with them.
Normally they give those their students they already know their academic background.
Just felt like responding to your post so you don't come with the mindset of u will get assistantship to cover fees and later get disappointed because many have.
Good luck and plan well so you don't come regretting.

people that are telling u to come will be paid by those schools, that why they will continue to deceive u to come their is no way you can hustle i will not deceive you..

Thanks Mr.Penroll 55 but you are getting it all wrong. i am not looking for assistance from the school or anything like that. All i want to know is if i can go ahead with the payments and still be able to get the visa this month because i i saw on Turkish embassy website that those applying for education visas usually should apply 2-3 months before intended travel date and if at all the payments it is not possible, can i defer my admission till JUNE. Thanks

Yes you must transit through Turkey even with Egypt airline if your final destination is North Cyprus for now. However, if you hold passport that allows you to travel through European countries like South Cyprus then you can fly direct to south Cyprus via emirate airline and just drive inside north Cyprus within 45min.

The situation may change as soon as both north Cyprus and south Cyprus joined.

thanks a lot, one more que sir, my sch CIU start lec. 22nd of Feb, I paid last week but I am yet to get the admission letter hopefully before week runs out i will get it, i am planning to fill d application form on the Turkish embassy dis weekend(to continue d process I started last week), I'd like to know the duration before the interview date If one should apply. thanks for your assistance .

As for the English exam Nigerians are normally exempted from it as long as u have a C in your English.
As to the embassy 2-3 booking before applying is just in case of issues so u want have to miss any deadline relating to your studies or business.
As for this semester I doubt if u can still make since classes begin 22 of this month. If you chose to defer then I will advice u still try to make the payment now and request for now admissio letter so u know the stress of making the payment is settled and u sure of coming next semester.
Good luck

Yes you can defer your admission till June and as for the embassy 2-3 month issue is just incase of problem so u know u have enough time and won't miss out on anything.
If they suspect any of your submitted document normally it takes a month or more to very it that's why.

you might try your luck, i have to withdrew my money from diamond bank last thursday and find EURO else where after 2 weeks of hoping to pay through form A, the desk officer lady keep telling me CBN has not responded to their bidding for my euro, seems euro is harder getting than dollar because i knew of a man we both submitted the form A and all other documents together got his fees paid the following week. my advice is to try it, it might work for you but do have plan B in other not to waste time, i paid 320k for 1000euro last week, i'm applying for my masters at CIU. All d best
also having d same issue paying my tuition to European University of Lefke with DB. I submitted my Firm A since last Thursday and uptill now my cash is still smiling in my account. I visited d bank earlier today to know whats wrong and dey told me d same story abt bidding from CBN. thinking of sourcing my dollar elsewhere but now had a 2nd taught dat dere is no even much time again since lecture will commence late dis month and I'm yet to apply online. So I'll b mailing d school for defer nxt week.

Happy sunday sir,thanks for the previous replies to my questions.
Sir l want to ask some more questions.
1. I read somewhere that the landlords in north cyprus have rules that allow a limited number of people in a rented space i.e in a 2 bedroom flat in NC how many students are maximumly allowed to stay in the apartment?
2.Is it possible to finish the interior architecture undergraduate program in 3yrs with summer classes??
Expecting your answer, thanks alot

Hi,
1. The rule is not fixed and depends on landlord and house type. Those apartments built like student dorm may enforce this rule of limited person per bed, while normal apartment may not care since tenants pay for a whole flat not bed.

2. Yes its possible with atleast 3 courses per summer.

Before you apply make sure the school have sent your name to the embassy by contacting them so you don't go the embassy when it has not been sent .
