.

1. Are you sponsoring yourself or you have a sponsor?
2. How did you prepare the sponsorship letter? Did you use the template from Campus France or you use the individuals sponsorship letter?
3. If you used the sponsorship template from campus France, did you get it notarized?

I am self sponsored and I just got details from two other students who are being sponsored got the same mail too.
I don't know if it's because our course is for two years or because we are all going to a private business school.
As anyone experienced this before.

You are welcome…

So for those still on the process…


I got my student visa last week about 3 days after submission in Abuja and this is my story

I am a first timer, virgin passport holder (yes my old passport got stolen in SA so I basically have no travel history…)

I am a student and applied for a long stay (D) visa

I applied directly to my school and followed the campus France procedure afterwards so all the documents I submitted are as stated in my campus France guide list. I will attach it here

I was given 1 year multiple entry visa.

I used my sister as my sponsor and showed money deposited in my bank account from her.
(615 euros x 12 + some extra very small)

She ISN’T based in France or Nigeria, but also in Europe so CF mandated that she transfers the money into my own account. I mentioned this because it’s a new rule so take note

I also already paid DEPOSIT (first installment of 3) of my tuition

Hope this helps


All the best.

good evening I have submitted my passport too on Wednesday and I got a reply on Friday that it's ready. I am very worried as the processing time was so fast. Will this affect my chances of getting the visa as it was so fast VFS on Wednesday visa on Friday. I have not picked it up from courier yet

Hi,
Thanks for the information.

I just got the unconditional Admission letter from BSBI Paris. The MBA program is set to start in March 2022.

What's the next Step?

Do i need to visit CampusFrance Office for Manual application and then to VFS for appointment or
Just VFS for Appointment .

Secondly, Does France require Document (Bachelors Certificates) verification from The Court? or Camps France handles all of that?

Thank you.

. How did this go were you given the visa? As I got admitted to this school too

. What was the reason for your refusal

Slim234:
Lagos

Oh wow.. that’s fast. But it’s not predictable, probably just wait to collect it on Monday.

I applied since 5th.. I’m yet to get feedback, so I don’t really know. Some people in Lagos said they got theirs in 8 working days, some said over a month before they got feedback but from the few I have asked 8 days is the shortest. At the same time you just might have gotten your visa, we can’t know till Monday.
Anyways I wish you the best on Monday ☺️

Hi guys. Someone needs clarifications on the following:

1. Please, what is the easiest and cheapest way to obtain a dummy housing certificate or proof of residence for the visa application?
2. Is it possible to get a visa appointment earlier with vfs as the earliest days are in October? Thanks

[quote author=Holyfeed post=114933700][/quote]

Funny question, I’ll answer anyway

1- to get a very cheap housing certificate, u can visit livinfrance .com or travelgetter.com in France or
If you have a contact in France who can issue you a certificate.

2- New early slots have now been created and opened to book appointment within August.
If I’ve booked previously, u can’t reschedule .
What you’ll do is book a new appointment but add a zero to your passport number to allow you rebook appointment with the new released dates
It’s a valid vfs procedure

It’s VISA
France is faster this year for student going to Public school and with valid documents

. I am going to a private school. I made the full payment of 8000 euros for the school fees. I am offering a self sponsoring. 850 euros a month for stay I have twice that amount to live for more than two years my bank account is more than twice the required amount. I have only been to Dubai but I could not submit the Dubai visa not accepted. I am switching field from engineering to MBA. I have good inflow and out flow of cash from the sales of goods from my business. My course starts in October not September. I have been denied a France tourist visa before on January 2022. I had the denial letter with me but the officer there at VFS asked me not to submit it since it's a different Visa Short stay for tourism and long stay studies. Will this affect my chances. I did not talk about the denial or submit the first denial letter. I hope to receive my passport tomorrow. What are my chances that i have been granted. Because I submitted at VFS on Wednesday and got a reply that it's at the embassy on Thursday . And then on Friday I got a message that it has been processed and sent to VFS for pick up. This time decision is what I am worried about. Did they look at my documents? What are my chances

pls keep the hope alive
it going to be a positive outcome

Was this in Lagos or Abuja?

Lagos

Hello house,

Please help.

I intend to move to France by January next year on exchange. I can travel into France with my current residence permit as a student but how do I convert to a long- stay visa on arrival? Do I have to apply from Nigeria through VFS or is there an embassy I can go to on arrival in France.

Thanks

Did you apply in Abuja and have you gotten any mail since you applied?

I also applied on 5th and I’ve only gotten a mail saying it’s been sent to Embassy, that’s all.

I took the Campus france confirmation mail along but they didn't request the confirmation mail from me at VFS so it was not part of the documents. So I thought it was not necessary as they had a checklists of doucments they were collecting. I don't know if that will affect my application.
