Travel › Re: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 9 by DOlumide22: 1:03pm On Oct 11
@sophiatomolola
Is it possible to get MPhil offer with My BSc 2:1 in Accounting at University of Westminster?. I'm seeing contradictory information on their website site (course requirements page), a particular section says 2:1 BSc while another section says Masters.

sophiatomolola:
Good morning everyone, please I need advice from people who have experience with UK student visas, especially those who have studied at the University of Westminster.

I have received a conditional offer from the University of Westminster for a 4-year full-time MPhil/Research Accounting programme, starting January 2027.

My questions are:

1. Is the University of Westminster currently a good/safe university to use for a UK Student Visa? Does it have any issues with CAS issuance or visa sponsorship?
2. Has anyone recently applied for a UK Student Visa through Westminster and how was the CAS/visa process?
3. I plan to apply with my spouse as my dependant. Since this is a research-based postgraduate programme, am I eligible to bring my spouse as a dependant under the current UK rules?
4. My tuition fee is around £17,000 per year, and Westminster has requested a £5,500 deposit before CAS. Does anyone know if I need to pay a particular percentage of the tuition before CAS?
5. I have never travelled outside Nigeria before. Does lack of travel history affect the chances of getting a UK Student Visa, especially when applying with a dependant?
6. For people who have successfully applied with a dependant, what documents did you provide to demonstrate the source of funds and your relationship?

I would really appreciate advice from anyone who has recently gone through this process, particularly for a January 2027 research/MPhil student visa application from Nigeria.

Thank you.
