Wow!! That's serious.

mimilyrics:
Subject to approval usually means that the program is in the final stages of approval and that the school is doing all that it can to ensure (but not guaranteeing) that the course is ready to run at the next intake

Choi, I can imagine l. I can't do online classes at all abeg. Not even in this place where network isn't stable. There's so much uncertainty everywhere.

This pandemic is really ruining things. Please do you know how I can change my naira to pounds pending when I'm ready to pay for the tuition.

I don't know how much the naira would have deprecated by then.


Dont pay with black market. Dont change your money.

Pay anything related to school with Form A.

Go to head office of first bank or GT bank or any bank you use. It must be the head office in Lagos or Abuja.

You will be given CBN rate of about 450 to 475.

Current black market is 530.

So beware and dont lose your money indirectly.

I know, I was advising him not to.
He is not ready to pay tuition yet but was asking me how he can change money to keep till when he’s ready.

Told him exchange rate is high and he shouldn’t.

Good evening house

I came across this phrase "subject to validation" on the course page for Adult Nursing, University of Chester.

Does it mean that the course has NOT been fully accredited by NMC?

I've written to the school for clarifications but no feedback yet.

Any idea on what this means before someone enters one chance of studying unaccredited course..

See the attached below

I can’t help but notice this moniker, don’t mind me I’m Yoruba cheesy

Oloshi83:
I’d suggest you email the Uni and ask them to extend the deadline for the deposit payment. You can’t apply for a visa until mid to late June anyway (for Sept start) so focus on your 28 day proof of funds for now and leave the payment matter until the end of May/June.

I’m helping my cousin with his and that’s what we‘re doing. Things should be clearer in a few weeks.

It is impossible to say what the Naira is going to do in the coming weeks but it’s difficult to see it going back to 460-470 in a hurry.

1. Anglia Ruskin is good. I completed my undergraduate studies there some years ago and it was good at the time. You can also compare the MBA offerings against schools in the same area i.e. Uni Greenwich and Uni Kent. Kent offers a 10% off on fees and its modules and in terms of course offerings, Kent, Greenwich and ARU are similar with only slight differences in modules.
In terms of cost, Kent is more expensive @ 21,400 since Greenwich is 16,000 and ARU at 16,200 but with the Uni Kent's 50% scholarship (if you get it) and its 10% discount on early deposit payment, UniKent tuition would stand at 8,000 (inclusive of initial deposit). ARU used to offer about 10% off tuition but not sure if they still do so. Kent tuition is inclusive of a 5-day study trip to an EU country.
2. Combining your ACCA and MBA doesn't necessarily mean that you would get a job with tier 2 sponsorship but it gives you an edge as long as you start your job search early. Try to brush up on your other skills that could get you a foot in the door (i.e. If you got a PM job, can you demonstrate a good grasp and experience of PM in addition to your business management and accounting experience? What are your excel skills like? Note that this is just an example and not a given). Make sure you start your job search early after identifying T2 sponsors and don't shy away from business gatherings. Also get volunteer experience in which you may use your and develop your skills shouldn't be overlooked to. It's not a given that you'd get a job but if you plan for it, it's possible.
3. What would you like to do after your degree? Do you just want to do a Masters as a stamp on your knowledge or as a way of entering the market?
4. On-campus costs are similar to that of Kent and most unis and but I'm sure that if you will be renting private, you'd come up with various options that would suit your pocket. Food and electric costs are similar to elsewhere in the UK. Cambridge is fun depending on your idea of fun.

Thank you so much for your response and recommendation. i got a 4k pounds scholarship from ARU and if combined with the 1k pounds early payment discount that brings the total tuition fee to 11200k which i think its a fair deal.............but this university of Kent 50% scholarship is tempting shaa. i dont know if it will be easy to get.

Please are you in scotland? I have received so many pms about this UK teaching stuff and I am always happy to answer the questions here. England is a complicated one to start with. I am just waiting for this lockdown to be over, before getting the Teaching license in England too. It is better to start with scotland and later apply from scotland to England for Teaching license than to start with England route.

Greetings everyone and thanks for the wonderful contributions so far.

I need clarification regarding proof of funds for a dependant. I saw online that it is £6,120 (if the Visa will be granted for 9months or more) per dependant but was surprised when a friend in UK told me today that it is £16,320 (2years living cost).

I have attached the source of my info herewith. I would appreciate all vital information concerning this, many thanks.

The ARU tuition makes sense with the deductions. The Kent scholarship is easy as long as your application write up is compelling. It never hurts to explore your options so if you try, the worst case scenario will be not getting it but you'd still have ARU. You can apply the scholarship as soon as you get an offer without the initial deposit. It's awarded on a rolling basis.

You're not required to show funds for the 2 years but you must show that you have enough money to pay for the course fees +9 months for the first year of your course and maintenance of up to 9 months for each of your dependants.
When unsure about the veracity of any info, always verify info using the official UKVI guidance to avoid pitfalls that may cost you. The info on the screenshot is correct but your friend's info is wrong.
