Hello

It has nothing to do with your CAS, so nothing is expected of you. That being said there is no harm in advising your Uni on the change of status

During your visa application please ensure you use the right one i.e Married if you are


Cheers

Just keep refreshing around 7pm, 10pm, and 12am like someone said earlier.
You have to be committed to it, refreshing every minute during those hours. Use a laptop and good internet connection. Above all, pray for favour too..
Just got Aug 16th this night. TLS Ikeja. (Thank God)

When is your appointment? Really wish someone at TLS will help us clarify this info or someone that was able to use the priority service for both them and their dependents. The uncertainty is killing.

Honestly, UWL wasn’t my first choice, if you read my visa alert post you’d maybe understand why I settled for it but now I’m just in regrets. I informed the Student union and they said the only way I can receive a refund is if I come back to Nigeria and I will only get 50% of my tuition, alternatively if I have plenty money I can pay tuition for another school and reapply for another visa whilst I am here but I won’t get a refund for that, instead I will be owing UWL!!!. I can’t do either so I am accepting my fate and will just finish. I just pray the certificate will be useful as the school No just get any level for here at all. Maybe it will have level in Nigeria but I don’t have plans of coming back to settle there.
Laspotech is way bigger than this school in terms of landscape, actually no comparison at all. The ealing campus is just like house on the rock in lekki while the brenthfort campus is one big company like building with multiple floors. It’s just as if I am in a polytechnic with the amount of money I paid. It’s so painful. I visited a friend in Roehampton Uni, my Gosh, you should see that school!! That is an actual university!! So big with the accommodations in it and all. That’s where I was trying to transfer to. And the standard is so great, very well respected and they have given me admission but I can’t do anything with it now.

Hello

Sad that you are going through this and bold that you have come here to advise others

This is the reason we expect people to do thorough research on the Uni's they apply to and not just come seeking for Uni's with low tuition deposit or one that won't ask for POFs or IELTS or someone's recent request was one that will give admission sharp sharp

Back to your question, changing Uni at this point will be very difficult, you have to provide enough reasons with evidence to show why you want to such as Racism etc. The reasons you gave here to an extent are not justified because they expect that you have made enough research to come to the Uni,others can be resolved for instance
in terms of changes in timetable and unruly lecturers or staff this is something you can report to any student union officer to take up, that's one of their major roles

At the moment you can try to see if you can change departments (if at all) to one that could be better

Cheers

Per the timetable, I’ve written a lot of emails and went to complain in person but they said it’s the requirement of my visa for me to have that much contact hours with the university in person. I am in shock because I have friends studying in other schools and they only have lectures two times a week.
It’s was being here that I went to read the reviews on google and it’s just bad as well.
I hope some people learn from my mistake. 14,900 is just a lot of money not to get value for.

offwego:
So i really don't think this is a deal breaker.

Institutions always state on the CAS the documents used in assessing the application and which of the evidence of the qualifications used to obtain the offer is required to be provided during the Visa application and also notify the UKVI of this. This is the reason why institutions highlight that they are a Higher Education Provider (HEP) with a track record of compliance.

The reason student visa applicants should have their transcript/certificate handy and add it with the visa application outside a notification on the CAS is because there is a provision for it on the visa application document checklist.

If there are issues of compliance with immigration rules from the institution, the ECO may want to see every document used to obtain the offer and the applicant would be notified to provide this.

Thanks a lot. So, in the case of the bolded, this will be done through NSF mail asking her to provide this?

Good morning my people.
Having been in the Uk for over two months now studying at University of west London, I will like to advise admission seekers to opt for better options, only come to UWL if it’s your last resort or you don’t have any other option because the fees are too much for such a waste. Firstly, this school should not be a University but a polytechnic or college. The non academic staffs are super rude and the finance team are on another level. Once you get here, even after paying 10k tuition deposit, they will harass you for the balance of your tuition. The environment where the school is, housing cost is over the roof. Any money you are working will go to accommodations unless you have a family member to stay with. Timetable is adjusted at will and very annoying. Imagine having a class at 9am- 10am and another one at 5.30pm to 7.30pm! They will ensure you come to school up to four times a week. If you miss lectures too many times, they will send you emails threatening to send you back to your country oo. Lecturers will take forever to reply your email, I don’t know who gave them the award for student experience but that thing is audio. Forget about scholarships and tuition discounts.
If you are already coming to UWL, I will advise you to bring enough money along o. Again, UWL should be any admission seeker’s last resort because the school No be am at all. Total waste of all that money I must say. I have been researching ways to transfer and if I can get a refund of my tuition or the tuition is sent to another school. Please if you have any information on changing schools kindly help me please.

If it is that 4times in a week thing. U are not the only one. But again it depends on ur course. Some courses are more intensive in nature, especially numerate/quantitative courses. We also have a class that is supposed to end by 6pm but it ends by 7pm. No fault of the lecturer though cos we ask hell of questions especially when we are doing anything software. The lecturer has to wait and carry everybody along.

The only difference is they attend to mails from what i have seen so far in my school even during weekends.

Just take the good sides. Although for my school i have no regret at all. The only thing is it does not give me the luxury of time to work during school term. Cheer up dear.

Wakanow is a scam!They booked Qatar airways for me and my family on the 7th of August,after some days I got a mail from Qatar that Dear customer you ticket has been changed .we were given option of cancellation if we are not fine with it. I told wakanow to let me know what changed ,it was just the airport and departure time so I gave the go ahead to effect it . The sent my kids tickets three kids for my consent ,I checked and ask them to go ahead hoping that my wife's and my ticket will drop soon . I asked for the two remaining ticket,they kept telling me to hold on until after 2 days that they told me that the change only affected my kids and not ours .I was like how could I have agreed that my kids fly a different flight from ours. They claimed I gave the go ahead. Now they asking me to pay 1.2m to effect the change to be in the same flight with my kids.

Please has Anyone been in this situation b4 and can advise...

There was an error on my decision letter, I requested for a correction, but apparently the same error had already been made on my brp, home office apologized and a new one was issued and they said the old one is now invalid (they asked I destroy it if I have it and I shouldn't make any travel plans till I have the new brp with me).

So thing is, I'm not yet in the UK, I only noticed the error from my decision letter, haven't collected any brp yet. My worry is does this also affect the validity of the 90 days entry vignette on my passport as I'm yet to arrive the UK and haven't used it yet? The person who replied my email couldn't really give a deifinte answer when I emailed ukvi, probably she didn't follow the email thread to understand the situation.

I don't want to have issues at the airport... Here at departure or in the UK on arrival. Just a little worried.

Pls allow me to intrude.
So the problem is the size of the school and number of times you have to go to lectures in comparison to what is happening in your friend’s school? Wow. Wow. Wow.
You mention if you miss lectures too many times… reallly? So they should be quiet that a student fails to come to class so many times?? Are you a student truly then?

You are a full time student and not part time.
Or because the school’s landscape is not over 100 hectares of land?as for expenses, no one has it easy in London.

As long as you are in London you will deal with the high cost of living, so again what is the issue?
Honestly if I were a student I will take your review with a pinch of salt as you have yet to present any real issues with this school.
