@justwise and all:

Am submitting my application on 15th. kindly confirm that the appendix 8 form submission is compulsory.

Also my CAS says the following concerning documents:

Qualification evidence; BSc Electrical and Electronics Engineering.

English evidence; Assessed at CEFR level B2; Electrical and Electronics Engineering, University of Lagos.

I have my University of Lagos Certificate and am thinking it should solely be enough for both the english and qualifications evidences as suggested by the CAS. Is this rigth? If not kindly advice on other documents to include.

Re: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part2 by SAT1: 5:36pm On Aug 11, 2013
Yeah! I transfered ma Tuition fee last week, I bougth ma pounds from black market at #252/£. The guy paid d money into my dommy after which I did a local naira transfer to his account too. I then did FX transfer of d 13,500£ to my Sch's Barclays Bank account in tranches of 6000, 4500 and 3000£. You can also do same but be ready to pay transaction charges through ur nose, the charges are crazy man (I used gtb and incured d following charges: 0.5% of the whole money as commission, 5% of the commission as VAT, 12£ per transaction as Offshore charges, #4000/transaction as for telex). The charges migth not be a big deal to u anyways but it was to me as the whole money was from my sweat.

By d way, why would you wanna use someone else's dommy? It takes only 24hrs to open one for ur self at gtb ma guy. Open one fast and tell d guy to pay d money into it for you. Its better that way, aside from prevent u from high BP, ur money would also be refunded directly into ur personal dommy if need be in the long run.


Hope this helps.

Hello peeps,

How easy it is for one to change a course within the same department say: from Electronics Engineering to Control Engineering) after getting to d UK, may be during the first month of classes? Would one loose anything for doing such? What are d procedures?

I think I should clarify that it also depends on the course you want to do. Most schools do require IELTS or TOEFL. What course do you want to do? That should be the most important thing.

No.
Your CAS number given to you is linked to the specific course you have applied for.

So its impossible for one to switch course........am talking about after getting to the UK bro. Think CAS is just a confirmation of acceptance for study from one's sch to UKBA and its relevance ends after securing a visa.
Re: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part2 by justwise(m): 6:22pm On Aug 11, 2013
Aristoqrat:

Okay that's good then, well your checklist should include:
1. VAF9 Form printout (Attached with one passport photo)
2. Appendix 8 Form
3. International passport (Include old passport, if any)
4. School Certificate/Transcripts
5. WASSCE certificate
6. Letter of acceptance from school
7. CAS statement
8. Bank statements (You can also include oanda.com currency converter printout -that is if your funds are in Naira)
9. You can also include a short personal statement like I did.

I hope that helps. All the best!


no 9 is not necessary, in no 4 include only those documents listed in your cas.

the rest of the list is ok.

Yes! I wish to go for either War Studies, Conflict Studies or Criminology. Although, I will be going to London for a short course soon and by the Grace of God, I will stay for 2months so I will visit some college and universities but before then, your info could help and stop the stress of touring the schools.

Prof. Justwise have helped with some useful and helpful info tho....

Okay I get your point.
From my understanding, you can change your course of study if you are staying with the same sponsor -that is your institution.
You do not need permission from the UK Border Agency if you still have enough time on your visa to complete the new course. Your institution will inform the UKBA of the change.

Submission of Appendix 8 form is compulsory. It is clearly stated on UKBA website:
"Depending on the country where you live, you may need to make your application online or using application form VAF9. To find out which method you should use, see 'More information' below.

All applicants must also complete and submit the relevant version of Appendix 8 of the form."

I don't think so. Your CAS (and by extension, your visa) is linked to your course and university. If you wish to change your course or university, you will need a new Tier 4 visa!
