I don’t think this blanket assumption that every student facing financial difficulty failed to plan or somehow tried to cut corners is fair or logical.

Of course it’s accurate in many people’s cases but taking random news like this and laughing about them on the assumption that they caused the problem they’re in surely isn’t right.

If i was going to attend a university, I would ensure my funding is guaranteed, or I wouldn't bother.......

I wouid not hang it on a wing, prayer or GFM...... 😜

Lexusgs430:



Where would she get £10,500, within 24 hours (free)..... (Considering current GFM figure)..... B4 maths lecturer's attempt to correct me .......😜

If you FAIL to PLAN...... You PLAN to FAIL.......😁

Why would I want to rely on the generosity of others (hoping they come through).....

She got £10,000 to raise in a few hours...... Her refresh fingers, must be hurting now..... 😂

Hkana:


Sure. 2 active DDs

I shall pass

They should offer £200 like Natwest

jedisco:


Continued naira devaluation might have meant home sources of funds might not be able to meet up.
Also, influx of care workers + dependents has meant usual 20hr jobs have not been as easy to come by.
Some also didn't have reasonable funds initially and now have to face the reality

I wonder how many would fare in the longterm (after PSW) with the new work visa rules.

Well, good points

Remains to be seen sha. Hopefully things get better cos mehn, its starting to look one kain and the UK gov will also be observing these things

They played a stupid game and now enjoying stupid price.

A year or two ago i was removing a lot of posts from people asking for school that does not ask for deposit or accept low deposit. I banned countless number of people advertising or asking for proof of fund link.

People cheated themselves from CAS to visa application and now chicken has come home to roost and we are acting sympathetic? Nah!

Experience is the best teacher.

Preaching the same on the student thread but I'm seeing counter arguments

Its best to get the experience in real time

i don't think she planned for it that way

her story says an extended family member was helping out but the economy has been tough.. she also lost her dad..

So her options are tight.. painful .. final year student..

I have been preaching this for at least 10yrs, collected a good number of enemies along the line but i'm not going to stop. I also 'enjoy' seeing the cry babies starting a thread moan about how hard life is in the UK.


An own goal

She knew it was going to be an uphill battle to raise funds, so she has had to defer her studies till 2024.........

In the may time....... According to the communication from her university...... They would contact home office....... 😜🤣

Tell us please; as a 20-year old like her, what would you have done to ‘ensure your funding is guaranteed’ other than relying on her family as she did?

How far the palm oil? Did it survive 72hrs trip?

Yes it did oo. I packed it in bottle water container (half filled), refrigerated it overnight till it's frozen, then put them in a polytene and wrap with sellotape. In summary, the oil made here without any spill.

OmichaelO:
how did it go?

I arrived safely. No drama or scare on the plane.

There was an hour delay from Abuja but we still arrived Cairo and London on time for me to board a national express bus I booked before traveling.

Wigwe university or similar, might have been a better option........

Lack of accommodation may prove a challenge as you should be able to show that you’re able to accommodate your kids and grandparents. You’ve already gone ahead to pay for the visa fees but if I were you I’ll wait to resume my job, have proof of address and at least one pay slip to show proof of income.

Huge thanks lolo and giselle237. How long can wait till my kids biometrics since all fees have been paid? I hope there time gap to complete biometrics is not counting? I can't seem to get the fact from Tlscontact. Pls help

Tier4Dependant:
Lender is offering me 13.4% APR for a car finance. Is this a good deal or I should try my luck and see if I can get a lesser APR.

But my fear is that, hope this current APR won’t leave a footprint on my credit file and make other lenders want to offer me a high APR.

I just simulated in my Lloyds back app and got 10.3% for £10k over 4yrs.

Note: use the car loan section, not the personal loan section.

Food don done for justwise, baba quiet since until the 'immigrants without plan' topic start.

My knowledge isn’t up to speed but you probably don’t have long. The link below from 2022 states 45 days so you’ll need to check to see what the latest guidance is.
