Which of the schools did you apply to and have gotten admission with?

I am still searching for good schools that do not requires POF before issuance of CAS..
I got offers from University of stirling and university of Sunderland (January intake)

Davidandgo:
This is because the whole process takes a while. From paying your school fees deposit via form A, to booking an appointment date for TB test, running your POF and also getting a date for biometrics, all of these adds up so the earlier you start the better. If you scroll up on this page, someone who got their Visa yesterday gained admission in January.

Lastly, some schools stop issuing CAS once they’ve received deposit from the number of students they can accommodate for each intake period.

Hope this clears things.
Thanks.

@duchess good evening.
Please why do you always advice those going for January intake to start applying from September? Does it mean we that applied earlier and have gotten offers already for January,our offers will be canceled and we will start all over around September?

University of Sheffield (Russel group)
Supply Chain logistics management


Submission: 09/06/2022
Biometrics: Ikeja TLS 22/06/2022
Collection mail:
Wife (Main Applicant) and three dependents

Documents submitted:

POF. (globus Bank)
IELTS
Degree certificate
TB certificate
Change of name documents
Marriage certificate
Passport

NSF on study gap sent on 5/7/2022 replied same day.

Spouse:
TB certificate
Marriage certificate
POF in MA account
Correction letter (I made a mistake in my passport expiry date and MA course end date)

Children:
Birth Certificate
TB certificate
Consent letter
Third party declaration consent.


NOTE:
I made a mistake in my POF calculation.POF was held in account only 9 days when we submitted the application and paid. I never knew the money has to stay full 28 days before submitting the online application. My POF matured on the date of my biometrics. I calculated from the date I deposited my POF to the date of the biometrics.
We have to eschew unnecessary fears cos must of the things that make people cancel their application doesn’t really matter to the UKVI.

To all of you still waiting for their decisions, it shall end in praise.
Cheers all.
Congratulations

Visa Alert!!!

Family of 5

Please It's going to be a long read, Kindly be patient as you read through �

Application date for MA : 17th of May

Application date for 4 dependants : 28th of May (Hubby and 3kids )

Biometric for all : 31st of May

NSF for MA : 17th of June ( For study gap documents which I sent on the 21st of June

Paid mail for MA on the 28th of June, Collection mail for MA same day.

Several Paid mails and calls for dependants : awaiting decision( I literally got tired of these)

Paid Call for all dependants: 8th of July ( Decision has been made ) Ope o��

Transferred and received by VAC : 15th of July

Collection Mail : 15th of July

Collection of our 5 Passport: 18th of July with Vignette sitting pretty on it ���
------------------------------------'
Ok, Back to the main gist ;

I submitted a proof of Fund from 1st of May to 30th of May.. (30 days pof)

On the 3rd of June , Someone here said she was refused because she Applied and paid both Visa and IHS 5 days to her POF maturity of 28th days .. when i saw it, I was devastated because I applied on the 17th of May, Paid both Visa and IHS same day...but printed from 1st to 30th of May which means I only held it for 17 days .. MOGBE!!!��‍♀️�‍♀️

I became so worried , but Thank God for God , @duchee90 and @Mosinmiloluwa that came through for Me and gave me hope for NSF .

Kindly note, My pof has been in my account since March, Paid my full tuition fees in April ... submitted my pof for cas ... from March 30th to 27th of April ( Cas was given on the 12th of May)

Hence , NSF became my everyday prayer cos I really needed it to print another POF for them .. infact I've informed my account officer I'm coming to the bank very soon .

When I got the first NSF for my 10 years study Gap , I kept on praying for the second one so I can send the POF to them .. but it's didn't come . On the 28th of May I made a paid mail and I was told decision has Been made and Collection mail dropped! How ? Why ? Without NSF for the POF ? That was when I realised what my school told me then that they are sending my documents with my POF and Bank Reference letter to UKVI for my CAS , so it has to be up to date .

Documents submitted : Passport,POF, Degree Certificate,Transcript, Neco Certificate, Change of Name , Marriage certificate , TB Certificate, IHS and Visa evidence of payment, Cas file ,checklist , Visa Application form ..(Infact I uploaded enough documents for them )

Dependants: hubby - his POF , Marriage Certificate, Biodata page, family pictures in a file , TB Certificate
.
For the kids: Hubby POF, Consent form signed by both Parents, biodata page, birth Certificate, TB Certificate.


I declared 2 Canada study visa refusal 2015 & 2016
1 UK Visiting visa 2021 December.

The kids also declared UK Visitor visa refusal ..

It was Only Hubby that was given the Visitor Visa and He Spent just 2 weeks

All declared !!


I'm just so happy seeing our passports with visa stamped in it ...

It's a dream comes true Fam...

Like what Pastor Jerry said on NSPPD on the 6th of June : He said.. "STOP THE FEAR , NOTHING WOULD GO WRONG" I held on to the word and God Came through for me and my Family ...

I'm also saying to everyone here waiting for their Visa that You should "Stop the fear; Nothing will go wrong .

As we are Investing into our future and that of our Family , May God Smile on Us and Ours�May We All Eat the Fruits of The UK Land . Amen

Sunderland.. He We Come .. You Must Favour Us �

Thank you so much Everyone, God bless �
Congratulations. I will also come back to testify like this. Congratulations again and again

Please I want to know if Stirling accepts waiver for the English proficiency test. I got an offer too and was asked to submit. Although, the school has a link where you can write the test online, you just need to contact them for the link, username and password, it's free. If they accept a certificate from my school for waiver, I don't mind..
I got a contact of someone currently schooling there(stirling) and she advised I take the Duolingo English test as it is also acceptable. I will be taking the test soon after confirming from the school that it is accepted.

Visa Alert!!!

Nobody but God and all good people here assisting with great response. Journey started oct with Oxford Brooke’s, denied me CAS after deposit because of my previous refusal.

Applied to Uni of Northampton, paid deposit in March via Black market and got CAS late April.

Biometric : May 11
NSF : June 7 requesting my Birth certificate because I used my mom Bank statement. Then one Uncle here that think he works with UKVI said I will be refused if I provide birth certificate that wasn’t signed by Deputy registrar or if I try to apply for new Birth certificate because I couldn't find the old one. I just ignored and stayed positive because it’s not every advise here you have to listen to. Well God never fails, I went to local government that my birth was registered and they gave me a new one. I guess UKVI have their way of verifying authenticity of documents wether it’s signed by deputy general or not.

Sent paid email June 17th
Decision made response
Transferred to VAC June 21
Collection mail June 22

For those waiting for Admission, Form A debit, CAS and Visa application decision. It will surely end with praise for y’all.

God bless you all.

Cheers.
Amen.Congratulations

Hi guys,

Kudos to everyone keeping this page running and to those sharing their experiences as well.

I was a huge beneficiary of this page last year as it taught me a lot about how to approach my visa application and helped with my settling down. It has been 10 months since I moved to the UK and I am having a swell time. I want to encourage everyone who is in the process of relocating for academic purposes as well. It is sometimes a long journey filled with anxiety, stress, fear, and suffering. But it is worth it in the long run. I pray your journey will be smooth without hiccups.


Thanks for the encouragement.
