Lol of course I know you used it as an example.E.g this Oxford university I went through their programs mostly religion and history then few professional program like engineering,law (those are the ones I can remember)
My own is go for the school that will favour you not because of its ranking.

If the ranking is according to subject that is different;I will say go for it but not top uk school.

crazydove:
Yes,but the way international students carry this ranking thing like it will give them automatic employment.how many Nigerians will go and study David Beckham? And most of these top uk schools programs are based on history and religion then few professional courses.
To me as an international you should look at the course modules and its benefits/features.when I tell people my plans on uk studies they always advice me to go for a school that has an internship in my course.

crazydove:
Abeg I don't believe in all these ranking.that was how I saw someone that graduted from imperial college was begging for job on twitter no work after graduating for 2yrs

mosopefoluwa:
Good afternoon All,

Please I need advice on how to go about this.

A new tenant (close family friend) moved into my mums house mid this year and the rent was paid into my account. There was no tenancy agreement between us. [s]The house is still in my mums name (Im her only child, havent done much about changing her name to mine on her properties)[/s]

How can I explain this in my statement of account.

I have a fairly good job.. earn a little over 300k monthly and that also reflects in my statement and can I use her house documents in my application (she didnt leave a will)

please advice

Great Job guys

Hello Guys,

Amazing comments; good help indeed...

I'ld be looking to study at ICL next month... I will deeply appreciate advise as touching fair accommodation options in areas around Imperial College as the school offered option is pretty much expensive at about 245 ppw.

Secondly, I know this must have been put up in the many interactions leading up to this but I will also appreciate it if the list of meal items to go along with can be put up as well; also locations in or around central london where nigerian food items and meals can be purchased at a pocket friendly price.

FInally, what do I do for transportation? I hear getting a student Oyster card is really economical? How do I go about that if so and how indeed does it work?

Thanks a whole lot...

justwise:
@All

Please can we now move on? Ranking debate done justice to.

Thank you.

VisaOfficer:
Hey everyone: I'll be traveling this weekend (one last hurrah!), so don't be alarmed if I don't answer any questions until Monday.

Also, I depart for my next assignment on Saturday, September 26, 2015 -- so that will also be the last day I can answer questions here.

I'm a single lady, mid 20's, salary a little below 200k, no investments, no landed property, salary account closing balance a little above 800k as at time of application. Applied for visit/tourist visa on August 11 at Ikeja center and received package on August 25.
I was refused based on large deposits on my account that I didn't account for and not providing enough evidence for the ones I accounted for.
I have 4 large deposits on my account. 2 from me and 2 from other persons. I explained the 2 from other persons and ignored the 2 I paid in myself because I felt since my name reflected it wouldn't matter, but I was wrong. The annoying thing about the refusal was that my int passport was stamped at d back.
I reapplied on August 31 at Ikeja center explaining all large deposits and added evidence. I received a phonecall from them on Sept 9, phone interview lasted for 5 minutes. On Sept 10, I was going through photocopy of my cover letter and application form and noticed I made some mistakes, this made me consider withdrawing my visa application, as a matter of fact I was already filling d withdrawal form online and I suddenly changed my mind. I started attending winners chapel at my area every evening and never missed communion. I borrowed OGreene's prayer point about not being refused a 2nd time and I keyed that into my prayer every morning. I received my package sept 15. I was granted 6 months visit visa.

I stumbled on this forum while searching for some answers during my first visa application and was a silent reader all through because most of my enquiries have been treated over and over again but I had to register in order to ask a question when I was refused.

I would really like to commend all the gurus here who take out time out of their busy schedule to answer question here. I have learnt a lot and like frontpagelawyer, I would like give back to the public in my own little way.

@Justwise, Abeg chop kiss. The way you attend to people here with so much patience, wisdom and humility is enviable. May God continue to bless you.

GLORY TO GOD!!!!
I have collected my visa!
20 working hours.

I had my appointment at VI on Tuesday, September 8th. Paid for priority.
Application's receipt was acknowledged by Lagos Deputy High Commission the next day (Sept.9th).
Decision mail came in yesterday morning (Sept. 15th).
I didn't even wait for collection email. I ran to Churchgate this morning and my envelope was there waiting for me.
The collection mail dropped few minutes after I left the gate.
All in all, it took about 6 - 7 working days. PRAISE GOD!

ebally:
And so, my parcel was delivered to me yesterday with visa issued. All glory to God. I really want to appreciate everyone here. Your comments and guidance contributed to the success of my application. May God bless you all.

@ PetiteDiva~safe trip and plenty hugs...

Petitediva14:
Thanks. I didn't have any issues at all. Some of the airport staff helped me to carry my load sef. To have a small body is good o.....people take pity on you and want to help....lol

loomer:
How do I tell someone I went visiting that place, there's no short form of pronouncing the name slf

loomer:
I think someone pronounce that on aljazeera a week or so ago

Adamkeyj:
pls VO will nigeria be eligible for this years DVlottery

VisaOfficer:
To repeat, it's extremely unlikely that Nigeria will again become eligible for the Diversity Visa program. Nigeria now sends more than 10,000 immigrants each year to the U.S., and that number continues to grow. It is, technically, possible, but it is not likely. I strongly encourage you not to base your hopes for the future on the Diversity Visa program.

adeoladele:
justwise, am so sorry to bother you

have tried to read many pages back but am yet to see a similar cases like my brother,

it just a golden opportunity for him for company to offer him a conference out of many in his department, he has less than 150k in his salary account, married with a kid, his company is sponsoring his conference, paying for his hotel and air ticket.

what are the document needed

thanks

Cutebabe20:
@justwise, yer I hav my divorce papers and I will be sponsoring d trip myself... What do u think are my chances pls?

Petitediva14:
Thank God for his mercies. I am enroute to the U.K, I am at Doha now.

My experience at the airport was stressful. I Carried too much load so I had to remove some. Gave all those airport staff and one police guy something but I was ready for them (I had 100naira bills so 3 looked like much....lol).

My hand luggage is really big (carried a big laptop bag and a hand luggage) so had a difficult time with some of the airport staff in Lagos. I hope I won't have any issue with the Doha staff and UK immigration.
