and also do you mean you are been charged 1022 for each year ?

and also is the ihs fee also charged in pounds or dollar just like visafee which is in dollar
Someone in the UK paid for me directly with pounds account.... If I paid £2044 for 2 years,,u should also likely pay about £1022 for one year,, otherwise u will be having declined transactions if u have a lesser figure in ur account

this is what is wrote on their website but some people going for 1 year master programme that just paid recently said the money they paid is higher than this , did you just paid yoirs too ?
I think wat happens is that what UKVI charges is different from what Worldpay will charge... There's some unquoted bank charges and tax attached which u have to pay... Just yesterday I paid £2044 for 2 years IHS which is £1022 for one year... Today I'm seeing $721 for visa which will definitely be higher at d point of payment bkos of taxes and bank charges

Hope y'all doing good

So I'm looking for a country to study in as an undergrad for either computer science or mechanical engineering
So I'm open to al countries in Europe and Canada but not the US.

About funds
I don't have anyone who's willing to fund me, so I'm hoping ok getting a full scholarship ..

And I don't plan on learning a language for the program
I would love it to be taught in English
But when I get to the country I can learn their language.

As of now my only qualification is my Waec
And sat(1240. R&W -540, Math- 700) and I don't think that would be useful since my destination isn't the US for now.

As for my Waec:
Eng B3
Math A1
Phy A1
Chem C5
Further math -A1
Biology C4
Geography B3
It's quite low for what I want id appreciate your honest opinions

If any one has a suggestion, an option for me or anything you feel I should know about
Pls help me , I'll look into it and weigh my options
I'd appreciate it
One problem with full scholarship,,once u graduate,,u are to leave UK

When I call him a dissapointing coach, emotional fans jumped onto my mentions

I have studied the pattern and realised that with Marescas approach, we should wave the league bye bye and focus on tourneys. Atleast if we qualify the group stages, we will get top teams to face, and this is when Maresca plays his strongest squad.

But for league..make una forget am. The man is so stewpid...that he will drop points against enyimba, after an excellent display agaisnt a big club like PSG.

People supporting him for resting players, didnt have this to say after he fielded a strong squad on two consecutive games against barca and arsenal. If we were playing CiTY today, same strong squad is what you see again. If we played leeds last sunday, instead of arsenal, na this weaklings like Tosin them you for see.

A very dissapointing coach
Wen I saw d lineup,,I just knew maresca is not a serious coach... Playing a weak team away based on by His grace

Yes, you can use the same Proof of Funds (POF) for your UK Student visa application, provided it meets specific criteria.

✅ Key Requirements:
28-Day Rule: The funds must have been held in your account for at least 28 consecutive days.


31-Day Validity: The financial evidence (e.g., bank statement) must be dated within 31 days before the date you submit your visa application.


📌 Practical Example:
Scenario: You received your Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS) on May 1, 2025.


Action: You maintained the required funds in your account from April 1 to April 28, 2025.


Application Date: You plan to apply for your visa on May 15, 2025.

Outcome: Your POF is valid because:

The funds were held for 28 consecutive days.


The end date of the 28-day period (April 28) is within 31 days of your application date (May 15)
Thanks for this explanation,,I've been looking for this explanation since last week... So my question is about paying my IHS and visa,,I've started the visa application and my POF is still running,,so I want to know if my POF is valid if I pay IHS on d 29th day but I print my POF on d 31st day... In other words,,is it d day POF statement is printed that UKVI will follow?

Caicedo was not on the pitch at the time of the equaliser so beat it
Fofana lost his man a split second before he had a free header..he should have done better
Did u read my comment well? Caicedo wasn't on the pitch bkos he got a red card puting extra pressure on his team mates... blame Delap for losing possession

You're very correct. Some Arsenal fans were very disappointed in Arteta for failing to spot this.

MorataFC:
Saying Rice was “a major thorn for James and Enzo” when Arsenal already had a one-man advantage is actually the lowest defence take I have ever heard.
The moment Caicedo got sent off, Rice disappeared from the midfield battles. Instead of using the extra man to dictate the game, he hid behind sideways passes and empty running.

You don’t call someone a midfield general or a Senoir man in his role, when the opponents are down to 10 men and he still can’t use that advantage. A real senior man doesn’t vanish when the advantage turns tactical. Rice was nowhere when it was time to step up.

And can you explain this, how does a player who “is not even a midfielder” get inverted into midfield, play almost the entire match with one man down, and still carry extra defensive duties, and still walk away with
Man of the Match award in the same midfield role where your “Senoir man” was standing?

Reece James was doing a job outside his natural role, under pressure, and still controlled key midfield moments better than Rice with one man down.

In that match, If Rice was truly the midfield commander as you claim, the award wouldn’t be sitting on James’ table.
Stop mistaking participation for dominance.
I pity for Arsenal... Unfortunately for them we have entered d month where they will drop points bkos Chelsea has exposed alot of loopholes in their style of play

Fofana is a great defender but he was at fault for loosing Merino for that equaliser
U are blaming a wrong person... It was ur Caicedo's job to mark Merino but unfortunately he marked poorly and got himself a red card puting extra pressure on all players,,we can't blame fofana for the equalizer,,,I actually blame Delap for his poor attitude to ball recovery after losing d ball.. he was d last Chelsea player with d ball b4 arsenal took possession

Amethyst101:
The corner taker plus GK = 2 players out of 11.
Add the 3 players dealing with our boys staying far far upfield. Thats 5 players out of 11

The only thing left to deal with is the 6 opposition players attacking the box for the corner, which I think we could handle well with 7 players + GK presence in the box. (in this case, 6 players + GK because of the red card, which is still enough to deal with their 6 box players)

In one smart move, we managed to break their box overload, while outnumbering them defensively, and still set up well for the counter-attack if it presents itself!

If that's not smart coaching, I dont know what it is. cheesy cheesy cheesy
Good analysis... Yet some people will open mouth waaa and say Arteta is better than Maresca... Now that Arteta has been exposed,,let's see how they will cope in d next 5 games

Sportsweb:
Chelsea left three players up by halfway during Arsenal long throws and corner kicks forcing Arsenal to keep three players back.

It reduced congestion in the box, gave the GK space to claim crosses, and created counterattack opportunities. Smart way to defend those long throws.

Every team is going to copy this tactic...long throw era will soon d!e a natural de@th in EPL.

He's not. Maresca is the true definition of a proper blend of adaptive and pioneering tactician.

Maresca that will make multiple tactical plans per game to stifle the opponent's attacking efforts, but still aims to dominated play through possession.

Go check the highlights again and see the tactical plan of several moving parts that he put together to counter Arsenal set-pieces.

He fully negated Arsenal's biggest avenue for a goal (set-pieces), knowing that in an 11 vs 11, in sheer attacking open play, we can outmatch them. And when we do, we score a goal.

That alone is elite tactical thinking.
Arsenal were taking corners but became confused in their setup bkos of the way Chelsea defense line was setup

We conceded just 3 goals in the whole of November.

2 against Qarabag
1 against Arsneal now

Uneaten whole November ( 6 games )

4 clean sheet.

Apart from that useless Qarabag match we have been solid defensively. Even Gusto putting in good shift


For me Arteta is ahead of Maresca but I prefer our style of football than Arsenal
Wat u guys should be saying is Arteta has had more time to prove himself than Maresca, maybe it's d experience of Arteta not necessarily being better than Maresca tactically

They've gone quiet because it's abundantly clear to them that they were saved by the sending off to a crucial player. And that with Caicedo on, Estevao not needing to go out, and Palmer possibly coming in at some point, they had quite dangerously underestimated Chelsea.
Imagine them playing all their strong players while Chelsea were without our strong players yet they couldn't win,,was that not a shame cool cool
