[Howfa gee,hope you eventually got the visa?quote author=Chinar post=117911692]Hello, I’m in a very similar situation with you. I got admission to study in Ireland for a first degree. I applied to the embassy for my study visa about 2 to 3 weeks ago and I’m currently waiting. I’d advise you to do the same and have a strong reason for your study gap. Get to it ASAP!

. Not yet bro but very soon. I’m applying again for the visa in January but the only difference now is that I have been taking preparatory courses online courses on Udemy to show my readiness for studies and to help in explaining my study gap. I still have admission to the same school.

Hi @ICaSNg, please I need your advice. I applied for an Irish study visa on the 17th of October but unfortunately, I got my rejection letter yesterday (30/11/2022). I’m very much still optimistic and would like to appeal my decision but I would like to get your advice and guidance on how to go about it. Thank you in anticipation

Guys, I need solid advise... I am yet to get a visa for Ireland, but I checked Ethiopian airways and Qatar airways, their fares from Lagos to Dublin are relatively cheap now, less than 500k for January.

Should I go ahead and book a ticket even when I don't have a study visa yet? What if I don't get the visa (God forbid), will I be refunded?
Hello bro, I’m in a very similar situation with you. I’m waiting on my January Irish study visa approval. Please how many weeks has it been since your application?
Advice.

[quote author=Chinar post=117643166][/quote]Hi @ICasNG. So I applied for my Irish study visa yesterday. Here’s my story, I started an ug program in Economics in a private Uni in Nigeria but didn’t graduate because I couldn’t meet up with the needed grades from graduating and so I took a break from my education to try to gain some work experience before going back to school. I got a job at a business firm and worked for 2 years until COVID. After I left, I continued to develop my self and talent as I attended a tech program where I was given certificate of participation and I continued developing my talent in music until I decided to go back to school. I’m 28 now and just got billed to start a Bachelors program in Business at the Dublin Business School in January with my fees fully paid by my sponsor who is my brother (who works and resides in the UK with a good financial standing). Do you think my case is strong enough to be issued a study visa to Ireland regardless of my gap?

ICaSNg:
You've covered 80% of what could have gone wrong based on the refusal letter. I guess she needs to speak to her school or Agent assigned to him or her.
Some other underlying factors may not be totally covered in the refusal letter e.g. I've seen students with BSc 2:2 from a science discipline applying for a 2 year BSc top up in Business ; which is absolutely ridiculous and this definitely has led to refusal for some students.

Finally, as you rightly stated, when going for any program either UG or PG, your future aspiration should be linked to Nigeria- this is not just for Ireland, for any country a student intends applying to for further studies, your future aspirations should be well defined on how the intended study will add value to your home country .

So while applying for a visa for a masters program, stating you intend proceeding for PhD IS TOTALLY A RED FLAG exception to MPhil students.
