Tanx~ Are you in School?

justwise: Have you been given an admission? Any English language requirement condition from your school?

Your mum & daddy can jointly sponsor you.

You have problems with micro-finance bank statement as its not easy to verify, use ordinary bank.

If your course is starting Jan 2013 then you have to apply now (its even late cos of xmas break)

Tanx~ its late already. Looking forward to September 2013. A school requested for GMAT as well as IELTS while another requested only for BSc. Just want to be sure if doing either GMAT or IELTS (or both) is necessary (or an added advantage) for Visa application should in case a school waives it. Tanx~

Good morning House, pls, i have few questions that needs answers. Tanx~ (1) Can Both Parents Act as "Joint" Sponsors for a Student? (2) Do UK Accept Microfinance Bank Statements? (3) Must a Student have IELTS? (4) Must a Student have GMAT for MBA? (5) How early can a Student apply for a Study Visa? (6) How early can a Student travel to UK when granted a Study Visa? Please note: question 3 & 4 as to do with Embassy requirements. Tanx~

peteafrik88: must I start counting towards the 28 days when my total sum is complete?

YES~

smartmachine: Good day all,

A question here pls...

I got an admission at Newcastle and the programme is due to start by Feb 11. My dad is my sponsor and he has approximately the amount of my tuition fees in his account which has been held in the account for some time. Now he needs to add more funds to this account from his other account so there can be a good increase in the account I want to use for the visa application. But since I read about the 28 day thing, does it mean that even the new amount he wants to add to the account must also stay for 28 days before i can apply for visa?

Thanks in advance for ur responses.

YES~

dove30: . It can be more than and it should not be less than the 7,200 for the 28 days.

Tanx~

Tanx ~ my 2nd question- must it be exactly £7,200? (not more than).

dove30: . Go to page 0 of this thread you would see an introduction that gives you all you need to know concerning applying for your student visa ,after reading you can ask questions on any section you don't seem to understand

Tanx~ i already did that. (1) Does 28 days means 28 working days? (2) Must it be exactly £5,400?(not more than?). Tanx~

dove30: . The ukba says that you can not apply more than 3 months before your course start date so it would depend on when in spring your course starts.people applying now are people who are starting course in january or february.if your course starts in april you can apply in january and if your course starts in march you can apply in december.

Tanx~ Pls, can u brief me about this 28 days issue with Bank Statement/Account?

Good Evening House, Can i still apply for a UK Student Visa for Spring 2013? Tanx~

Good Evening House, is it ok applying for UK Student Visa for Spring 2013? Tanx~

Good Day House, Can i still apply for a Uk Student Visa for spring? Tanx~

Ferguson backs referee accused in Chelsea racism complaint

STORY HIGHLIGHTS

Sir Alex Ferguson backs Mark Clattenburg over allegations of '"inappropriate language"
Police and FA have launched investigations into allegations
Roberto Di Matteo refuses to react to Ferguson's comments
Chelsea fan who allegedly racially abused Manchester United's Danny Welbeck named

(CNN) -- Alex Ferguson has defended the Premier League referee at the center of a racism row, saying Chelsea's allegations are "unthinkable."

Ferguson, one of football's most venerated and decorated figures, insists he does not believe claims that Mark Clattenburg used "inappropriate language" towards Chelsea's Nigerian midfielder John Obi Mikel during Manchester United's 3-2 win at Stamford Bridge on Sunday.

While both the police and Football Association have launched an investigation into the alleged incident, Ferguson has stepped in to defend the match official, who has been stood down from duty pending the inquiries.

"I don't believe Mark Clattenburg would make any comments like that. I refuse to believe it," Ferguson told reporters ahead of United's game against Arsenal on Saturday.

"I think it is unthinkable in the modern climate. I just don't believe it -- simple as that. I've never had a player come to me in the last 15 years and say a referee swore in a game -- ever.

"The way we see the game today rather than how it was 25 years ago, it has completely changed.

"I played myself and I know that the banter which went on between referees and players 25 years ago is different to today.

"There is no way a referee would stoop to that, I am convinced of that."

Police to investigate 'racist' referee in Chelsea case

Chelsea manager Roberto Di Matteo, whose side takes on Swansea on Saturday, refused to become embroiled in a war of words with Ferguson.

"It's a free country and everybody can say what they want," the Italian told reporters. "He likes to talk about other clubs. We tend not to."

Police launch hunt for 'racist' Chelsea fan

Meanwhile, the Chelsea fan who allegedly made racist gestures at United's Danny Welbeck during Wednesday's League Cup tie has been named as 28-year-old Gavin Kirkham from the county of Hertfordshire, north of London.

Kirkham was photographed making a "monkey" action towards Welbeck, triggering another police investigation.

Chelsea has already vowed to crack down on any acts of racism and Di Matteo insists the London club is determined to eradicate the problem.

"I always said that we are against any form of discrimination," he said.

"We will support anyone who is fighting that. That's our position and my personal belief as well.

"The fact that these incidents are happening give a lot of media exposure and makes people aware that we have to fight maybe a little more strongly than perhaps we thought.

"Everyone has to be involved in this process to eradicate it from the sport and life in general."
