I am sure you can do it alone with the assistance of good pple from this section. First and foremos, be sure of where you are going but if your uncle is financially buoyant to support you then i will advice you to go after your UK admission. Good luck!

I've processed visas for myself, for more than 25 countries, without any assistance.
This is not without one exception. I used a 'tout' in 2009 to help get a Visa interview date at the US embassy for myself and family. Not really a professional tout, just a lady who stayed up and got me the dates online, for token sum of N10,000. Luckily they have organized the process better now, so you don't need any assistance, just know that you are likely to get a date in 3 months. You just need to factor that into your travel.

Apart from that one exception, I've never used any agent for anything to do with visa. Though I use a travel agent for flight bookings.
One time i wanted to go to Singapore on vacation and I asked my travel agent to do the total package, hotel, visas, tickets, etc. When he gave me his bill, i just went online and did everything myself, including the airline and hotel reservations, and got much better pricing.

Bros, I applaud you for this good advice, thank you Sir. Such brilliant Nairalander's with positive view should be fixed up as Moderators, not some useless fools with 12,000 post and nothing good from them. Thank you once again jor.

@Poster, you have heard it all, no further comment needed, except it's necessarily, go with this advice, you can use Google to do some findings about each embassy and their student visa procedures. Cheers

May the God of wisdom,knowledge and understanding bless u all.Sirs@ I'm actually considering Kharkov national medical university, ukraine because the tution fee is just 3500 dollars and accommodation is as cheap as 50dollars per month dependin on ur

Why must he go through an agent? You and your brother did it yourselves so why did you not your an agent?

My justwise friend! You know I personally war against the many dubious so called agents and warn people to avoid them but I dont ever think using a genuine travel agency to process your travel trip is a bad idea, as long as the service charge is not on the high side and thereby affordable.

@ poster. All I will say is get down to the ukrainean embassy in abuja, check on the notice board, u will find 2 or 3 agencies the embassy recommend for documents translation, the closiest is the one at KCity plaza, but you can do your translation in any of them. Use wisdom to seek for assistance from them, they will put you through with no charges or wt peanut.
Also tell the uni that sent you the invitation, or the agent in ukraine to contact the embassy for IV confirmation, it's the most important thing you must ensure after you've gotten ur IV, and that's how the embassy know the genuine from the fake IV.

Know this also that there is no guarantee of job in Ukraine, so look before you leap. Good luck!
