I am sorry to hear this, I know how painful it could be.

Were you given up to 3 attempts to rewrite the SOP?

If yes, maybe you should have sought help/guidance, I wrote SOP for one RGU applicant about 2 months ago.

As for refund, please see below:

How to Request a Refund
To request a refund you should email the Student Finance Department:

studentfinance@rgu.ac.uk
Wow, didn’t know that they reject people due to poor SOP.. Wow wow.. I just freestyles mine ohhh, though all I said was the truth though..

@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?

I am still searching for good schools that do not requires POF before issuance of CAS..

Hello
Good evening house
Please I need to make an urgent Enquiry
I got my CAs from Sheffield Hallam today and I am about to start my visa application but the problem now is that the address on my Tb test was university of Law
Is it a must to change
And also I did the test in Abuja 2 months ago and Abuja is far from my place like 12 hours
Can I do the address changing in Lagos if it’s compulsory to change
Does Sheffield Hallam do Pre CAS interview?

I have an MBA, but yet to get my certificate or transcript. ASUU is on strike at the moment, if not I would have loved to declare the fact that I have an existing MBA degree..

I applied to Northumbria University London Campus , I have paid my deposit 5,500 pounds, received unconditional offer.
Was scheduled for a CAS interview on Wednesday(last week), which was successful, I was told to upload my proof of funds and TB test for CAS. But I realised that I do not have the Applicant Portal to do so, I have sent several mails to the school to send me my Applicant Portal but got no reply.

Note: I sent them the proof of fund and TB test via email.

I need advise please
Is the requirement for Northumbria University (London) different from the one at Newcastle? Because I was told by many that you don’t need to send POF to get CAS

January intake or Sept.. I am going for January and most courses in January are 14-16 months.. Which means more spending on IHS..

Will I have to calculate the extra 3 months?

And how do you proof of available funds to cover your studies (PoF) required for the visa application process?
I have more than enough on my Bamboo / T212 account (Stocks) and Binance (Crypto).. Even though the market is low now, so selling now means I will sell when market is down.. I can easily raise funds from my family to show POF.. The funds is not the problem, just that selling now make no sense..

demmysoft:
Pls house kindly advise on what to do, I applied for IHS refunds since last year eventually I was able to get a reply from UKVI that I suppose to get first part payment of 663$ in April, that I should wait for like 3 months before I could get back to them, having waited for more than three months I have to call them again but still told me to wait for escalation. Please, is there any other thing that I need to do again. Meanwhile, they said the money will be returned to the same account where the IHS was paid from.

Other question is that, I paid the IHS from my paga account and it has not been credited

Could it be that the money has been transferred to the paga but not crediting my account ?

is there anyone here that have experience this before ?

is there any way I can contact paga for clarification ?
Why are you applying for a refund ? Ain’t you going there again?

no POF for CAS. CAS issued after your deposit.
50% deposit before enrollment.
50% before enrollment, Choi, can it be negotiated.. I am moving with my family and most courses is 14-16 months of January intake, which means more money will be spent on IHS

Everyone is just talking about September intake and very few on January..

Please how many people are targeting January, then which school do you suggest accepts about 2k for deposit before CAS asides Northumbria?

January study period is usually 14-16 months instead of 12 months, which means more POF and IHS fees..

If I had decided early, I would have targeted September

SHU still busy with September Intake folks. But might start attending to January Intake as from next month according to their Nigeria office.
Pls how much does Sheffield Hallam require as deposit after Admission? Do they require POF before giving CAS?

Hello,

1. Please, I have conditional offers from the following schools. Conditions to meet include payment of deposit, submission of certain documents, all that I have ready. But I want to know which is best to pursue:
i. Ulster University (Birmingham Campus) - Int. Business with Data Analytics: £11,750 tuition
ii. University of Chester - Digital Marketing: £12,950
iii. Staffordshire University - Digital Marketing: £15,000
iv. University of Bedfordshire - Business with Data Analytics: £16,250

2. I applied for September intake for all, but I later changed my mind and would rather choose January. Please, is it allowed to process the admission, pay the deposit and then defer to January?

3. For January intake, when is the earliest time to enter the UK?

4. As a remote worker can I continue working after entering England and then resign when school resumes or I must resign before travelling? (Note: I work with a UK-based company)

5. If I choose to continue with the same company, must they amend my contract offer to reflect 20 hours per week or I can just continue without any amendment to the existing job offer?

Your response will be highly appreciated.

Thanks

CC: @ duchess90, justwise, giselle, gloriyah, and All.
It appears we are going for the same course. Who knows anything about Chester? The fees look affordable and they have an awesome payment plan. Are there jobs there? Please can i have your contact? I also intend going for Digital Marketing, or Marketing.

Yes they are taking applications. The earlier you apply the better. They close admissions on international students early.
It appears like most schools hardly take Summer entry? I am planning for May-June next year. This is to enable me save enough and avoid borrowing of funds.
