This is d background of FX,though banks might be doing something else or give their customers different tales.

Fx allocation is giving to banks by CBN based on several factors. Banks will now allocate d fx to regions, zones and branches. Customers are to route their requests on form A, M or Q through the dedicated portal to the branch customer service. The branch cso along with the Head of branch operations will initiate internally, check relevant documents and approve to the trade service unit to effect. So, banks or branches process transactions based on their fx allocations, unfortunately, ur particularly branch,d zone or region must hv exhausted d fx allocated to them by d bank for the month or quarter.

It will be difficult for CBN to approve all PTA/BTA, form A, form M, form Q and other fx transactions. Reports are filed regularly to CBN , so, CBN can monitor through that.

Good day, please I have a question. At what rate is the fee, paid through this form A, deducted? Is it the bank's rate or CBN rate?

If bank rate, please which bank has a fair rate and processes quicker?

I started this journey in August, applied to 3 schools for MA Social Work, got 2 offers in October after several interviews. At some point, I had to write IELTS and a Password test

I had 7 other offers from various schools for MBA, HRM and Project Management but I knew it had to be Social work, so I decided to wait it out...

Special thanks to @Babababy, he once sent a link as a guide for visa applications and I saved it immediately. That guide later became a life saver as I didn't get stranded or have to ask for help while applying for my visa. Thanks to this thread as well, I have gotten so much information just from being here.

Most schools have a payment plan. For instance, after payment of your first deposit. You can then set up a monthly payment plan (direct debit or manual payment plan) where you pay a certain calculated amount monthly. But it’s a bit tricky cos if you fail or default a payment twice, the payment plan will be canceled and your total amount becomes payable immediately.

Just search for schools offering your course, then from the school website enter “fees” in the search button and you will get information on fees and different payment options available.

Regards

I already did.
But the process is a bit tedious and the search isn't yielding any results.
Do you know any low tuition schools?

Please report it to the university immediately.

Let this be a lesson to us all. Please let's stop sharing our personal details with strangers. My observation on this platform is that we are lazy when it comes to research. Considering this is a student thread, how do you intent to survive study in a first world country when you cannot carry out a simple online search. We live in a world where a lot of us have data, but we want the answer quickly and would rather waste it on nonsense on social media that adds no value to our lives. We enjoy being spoon fed. Half of the questions asked daily have been answered before, but again we are too lazy to read through. Getting an admission to UK university is a doddle.

Making it to the UK is not going to fix all your life issues, it only allows you to exist and get by with mediocre mentality. Those that actually excel in their chosen fields are those who can use their initiative and can be self-starters.

A word of warning to all planning to come to the UK, you are coming to a country with set laws and order. No one will collect bribe from you to turn a blind eye. No lecturer will sleep with you in exchange for grades. You will not get away with such behaviour here. If you cannot leave your barbaric behaviours behind at Muritala Muhammed and Nnamdi Azikiwe Airport please do not come, stay back please. Majority of Nigerians have lived in the UK for decades with impeccable characters. The new influx of migrants should aim to do the same by staying on the right side of the law.

A word as they say is enough for the wise.

During application, the ECO will use Oanda rate when looking at your POF.

For payment of visa and NHS surcharge, if you are using a domiciliary account card that you need to fund with black market sourced currency, then it'll be black market rate. If you are using app such as barter by flutterwave, then it'll be their rate.

I can confirm to you that the cheapest school in the entire UK as far as this course is concerned is university of hull... £11,000. But unfortunately, the have closed to International till January 2023.

But here's my advice, seeking pre-CAS dep of 1k may sound good and conservative, but always bear in mind that 50% is a must for almost all UK schools at enrollment and you're still going to face it upon arrival.




So, here's the catch; seek schools with low tuition and it will be ur best bet. For instance, UCLAN tuition is £14,500 for this course, Bradford fee is £18,500 but will offer you £5,000 in scholarships.

So, explore Google, look out for low tuition, it'll be worth the while.

Thanks.

I am in the same boat, but I was told school rating matters too that I should not just choose any school.. please how through is this ?
Also, is it true that one cant apply for visa in a country where one is not a permanent residence.. if one is in UK and not yet a permanent residence, can one apply for visa to Canada

You can't compare a school that is ranked 1st to a school that is ranked 1000th. Ranking matters especially in US and UK,not in Canada. My cousin did her masters in Oxford and got so many offers immediately she finished, within and outside Uk.

Generally, life is about what you can offer and impact you want to make in the organisation. Do you ask if a doctor that wants to treat you attend top schools or lowly ranked school. But recruiters know some schools are not rich in terms of course content and tend to overlook them, students of such schools need to do extra work to be at par with other candidates, competition is crazy all over d world.

Before you apply, look at the course content and d calibre of lecturers., chats up with the current students and alumni on LinkedIn and also check comments on quora.

If you want to do finance or investment, confirm if d school is accredited by either EQUIS, AACSB, CFA or AMBA. University of Hull is ranked 601 - 800 by times higher, their financial management is accredited by AACSB, CFA and AMBA while University of Dundee ranked 201- 250 and Swansea ranked 251-300 is not accredited by any of these international bodies. Lagos Business School is accredited by AACSB and AMBA, why not schools in UK.

Wanted to go for msc financial technology, some students of some schools I chatted asked me to chill, that the course content is not rich, that the course generally in UK is being developed. They advised I rather do online courses.

The last paragraph of your response caught my attention but I hope you made a better decision still. I applied for same Fintech and got admission already but did my personal findings and read up the modules.

The field itself is just evolving so it only makes sense that it’s just developing as a field of study. Sometimes, perspective is also important but leaving your final decision to the sentiment of total strangers could make you miss a good opportunity.

The world is just embracing Fintech so what better time to get on board? Beauty of 80% research and 20% of taught lectures. Probably cause someone like me already has a banking background and know exactly what I’m looking forward to but all in all, you gave really valid points and that factor of accreditation was what made me choose MMU over Salford.

I can confirm to you that the cheapest school in the entire UK as far as this course is concerned is university of hull... £11,000. But unfortunately, the have closed to International till January 2023.

But here's my advice, seeking pre-CAS dep of 1k may sound good and conservative, but always bear in mind that 50% is a must for almost all UK schools at enrollment and you're still going to face it upon arrival.

So, here's the catch; seek schools with low tuition and it will be ur best bet. For instance, UCLAN tuition is £14,500 for this course, Bradford fee is £18,500 but will offer you £5,000 in scholarships.

So, explore Google, look out for low tuition, it'll be worth the while.

Thanks.
The reason i prefer UCLAN, low tuition but not for folks looking for little deposit for CAS sake.

In the other hand, higher deposit paid gives you relieve over there also.

The last paragraph of your response caught my attention but I hope you made a better decision still. I applied for same Fintech and got admission already but did my personal findings and read up the modules.

The field itself is just evolving so it only makes sense that it’s just developing as a field of study. Sometimes, perspective is also important but leaving your final decision to the sentiment of total strangers could make you miss a good opportunity.

The world is just embracing Fintech so what better time to get on board? Beauty of 80% research and 20% of taught lectures. Probably cause someone like me already has a banking background and know exactly what I’m looking forward to but all in all, you gave really valid points and that factor of accreditation was what made me choose MMU over Salford.

U can't have better experience than someone that has gone through it. If students that hv passed through the course is saying chill, till the course is improved, think I will listen to them, moreover, I have 10 years experience in finance and risk, so I am familiar with the terrain.

Yes, fintech as a course is evolving but some schools are already positioning themselves as leaders. In some schools in US, u will not gain admission to msc in fintech if you don't have programming skills and some have well suited lab,dedicated solely for fintechs. A student I engaged told me specially that, the course content they did on crypto currency is what can be easily downloaded online. I have checked Salford,it is more of theories and paper writing, u can't even compare it to Imperial.

Most of the lecturers that will teach you have finance and accounting background, they braced themselves up by upgrading themselves in financial technology courses through online courses. Trust me, by the time you avail yourself on online courses on crypto, python, block chain technology etc, you might jettison the plan of doing msc in financial technology. All d best.
