You will pay your fees on a yearly basis like all schools do even in naija

TheGodlessGod:
yeah I just confirmed their fee.

Am I going to pay for 3 years or just a year??

Coventry isnt cheap ooo depending on your course
but i think the current fee is 13800 for undergrad and its more expensive depending on your course

TheGodlessGod:
There's this university called conventry in the uk.

I think I will have to check for their fee

Msc or bsc?

What are the modules of my course?

Have I completed other courses(degree)

What I have been doing since graduation

What are my future plans

Who's sponsoring me?

What questions where you asked ? I tried searching to see if you said anything about it in your past posts but nothing.

liliberth:
Bsc.......and you?.......where were you interviewed?

Amen

I legit thought for a second that I mistakenly clicked on Canada Visa Thread lmaoooooo .
Almost everyone here will get Uk student visa approval. U.K. has low rejection rate so it will end in praises for all very soon.

Are you sure about the price tho?

bayosegun:
Take bus going to wuse from Nyanya and drop at war college is about #100. From war college you'll see TLS beside Hajj building

Lol was about to ask this as i live in abuja

Fwaz:
Please kindly give us direction as to how 250 naira can take you to TLScontact from Nyanya

Hi, are you saying we shouldn't touch the funds at all?

Skymoore1004:
Why would you do that knowing the rules?
Well hopefully the money you removed has not reduced the amount required! That’s the main thing.

Please drop info afterwards so other novice like me can learn from your experience. Thanks alot and i hope it all goes well for you.

The interviewer was really nice and friendly. I'll advise those preparing for interview to be calm and truthful. It's just you having a conversation with another person.

Best of luck.

This isnt against any rule ba?

mimilyrics:
Getting NI number takes months sometimes. Appointment dates are usually quickly booked up in the first few days/weeks of resumption but one can start some jobs before getting the NI number.

GOD BLESS YOU SO MUCH

duchess90:
Hi @Kingp91,

I think what @mimilyrics is saying is that your answers to Pre CAS interview (for those in that stage) or the main interview (Visa stage) should be very specific and detailed.
For example if you are asked ' Why did you choose this school or course for you masters degree', a generic answer will be defining what education or postgrad education or masters degree is. That shows the person either isn't prepared or not a genuine student.

Be straight forward and give detailed evidence ' so a better answer will be for e.g i chose the school because of the track record in being top?? Uni or my course is affiliated with XYZ organisation' or the school has a strong research culture ' etc

There are links on preparing for interviews on youtube, have a look, prepare and be confident.

Cheers

Please can you be more specific on what you mean by generic answers. Please no vex if my question is stupid just want to know and not make a mistake.
Thank you very much [author=mimilyrics post=92321008]You can get a T4 visa despite your US refusals; just ensure you state them + the reasons (if any) in your application, ensure that all your documents meet UKVI requirements and prepare for your credibility interview (knowledge about your accomodation & transport options, course & school in addition to not giving generic answers during your interview and confidence during your interview are important).

Read the links below for more info and if you have questions, post them here and anyone who's available will answer them:
Nottingham has explained the Tier 4 Visa process in this link and there's a link to the T4 official guidance in the explanation (take note that the maintenance quoted is for outside London): https://www.nottingham.ac.uk/studywithus/international-applicants/visa-help/10-steps.aspx

Information on how to apply is here on UKVI site: https://www.gov.uk/tier-4-general-visa

Cost:
1. Visa fee - £348
2. IHS - £300 per year; goes up to £470 in October. You can use the IHS checker in this link to calculate your IHS fees: https://www.immigration-health-surcharge.service.gov.uk/checker/type
3. TB test N57,800

Required documents / information for your application:
1. Your CAS information from your school; this information will be filled in your visa application form. Your CAS will also show all the documents that you need to submit with your application.
2. TB test certificate.
3. Documents listed in your CAS.
4. Finance: your tuition fee/balance + maintenance )£1015 monthly *9 for outside London and £1,265*9 monthly for London).
If your course is for more than one year, you only need to show your course fees for 1 year and maintenance for 9 months. You'll pay IHS for ¹/² year though since you'll be granted 4-6 extra months after your course end date.

How to show tuition balance and/or maintenance:
A. Your bank statement: This money must be in your account or your parents' for at least 28 days before the day you submit your application online. You will upload your statement to show this.
B. Official financial sponsorship letter from an international company/organisation, the Nigerian govt, the British govt or your T4 sponsor (school). A sponsorship letter will be required except in the case of a scholarship fro. your school; scholarship from your school will be detailed in your CAS.
C. Loan: must be from a bank regulated by the financial regulators in the country in which the money is held. A loan later within the 6 months before the date you submit your online application will be required.

Document submission:
After you submit your online application, you will need to pay your IHS, then visa fee before you can select an appointment.
Once you select an appointment, you can select self-upload which is free or assisted upload which costs N11,700.
If you select self-upload, you must upload clear and legible scans of all your documents (preferably in colour since this will closely look like the original). You can upload documents up till the day of your biometrics appointment. You can scan and save your documents in pdf format using the TinyScanner App
If you select the assisted upload, the VAC staff will take care of the scans + uploads for you.
If I missed out anything in the list above, I'll update as soon as I remember.
You can watch the video by TLS in the link below for a step-by-step explanation on the visa application process:

My condition was showing my originalwaec result which i did then an offer letter was sent which said paying the deposit of 4k and showing my bank statement. Nothing about personal statement.

mentored:
Alright @Kingp91


You are absolutely correct.

But if Coventry offered you a place, i guess it was a conditional offer?

The offer must have stated your personal statement as one of the conditions.

This also means that if your personal statement which is the only primary channel for you to communicate your individual circumstances, fail to do so,

The offer will still be rejected tomorrow.

Thats the meaning of the word

'CONDITIONAL'

We are advised to READ. very important

Coventry doesn't require a personal statement best of my knowledge, all they require is your result.

mentored:
Your personal statement at the point of application covers why you want to study the course, YOUR STUDY GAP, why you chose the University, why you chose the UK and your future plan.

Universities admission team usually look at these to make an offer.

These are same questions you are going to face at the interview level.


Someone corrected my comment earlier, so I am going to add this - my personal opinion please!!!

Yea someone said this too

omopapa:
Bolded is misleading and confusing

Please drop your opinion i always love more additions

liliberth:
All you have said is so wrong. But just say your own opinion and that's fine.

Already got an admission with Coventry thanks for your advice tho. Also the latter part of your message when you are talking about personal state does that have to do with school applications or visa process because i asked about old waec result in relation to visa process

mentored:
To be honest I don’t really know other schools who accept Nigerian O level results directly to year one apart from Coventry.

You can always send them (Other schools)an email to inquire though.

For old waec, if you are above 25yrs, I won’t advise you to apply for an undergraduate course. But if you are 25 and below, you can scale through with sound personal statement and proper guidance

I hope the above helps.

Thanks alot i already have an admission with Coventry i just wanted to enquire maybe i could get elsewhere and also get a lil assurance on the visa process. My money isn't an issue and so is my intention to study. Been following this thread for a while even before i joined. Thanks so much for your input

Skymoore1004:
To be honest, you’re more likely to be offered a foundation entry than direct year one entry. Most unis accept about 5 years old at least. Yours being 8 years could illustrate that you’ve been out of college for a while & you need to start from the basics.

Anyway like @hosey said, you should apply and see where it goes. Usually if the university accepts your credentials, then you’re good to go proceed for visa. You should enquire directly with the universities and be sure.
All the best

Lol calm down i already have an admission to Coventry.
If you don't wanna help then don't no need to be harsh man. Thanks though grateful you answered

hosey:
Just apply for admission to the two respective schools.

I cant keep spoonfeeding you.

Will the waec being like 8yrs old be a problem during viss stage

hosey:
University of Central Lancashire.
You must have WAEC or NECO Grade B profile

Hi apart from Coventry do you know anyother school that does this? And using an old waec would that be a problem at visa stage?

mentored:
Coventry University accepts WAEC directly to year one without A level or foundation for undergraduate provided you are 16 years and above

Do care homes pay more than minimum wage ?

Mindlog:
See as you calculate your meal times put inside the 60 hours!

Putting such hours in a care setting is not easy, I must confess. I presently work in a psychiatric hospital, I only do 40hrs weekly and can't go beyond that to avoid burnout.

Isn't this a violation of your student visa?

LagosismyHome:
Really 60 hours .... welldone to you

Sigh Coventry haven'tput anything on their site..so even if i am deferring from this year i will still pay the new rate?

Aprokodaughter:
Most UK schools have like 2 to 3 years plans already. Some schools have 2021/2022 session on their websites and schools fees approved. So if you go to their websites and check for next year session. You will notice that the school fees is higher than this year.

And me I don't want any surprise especially schools that have not posted their next year school fees on their website.I would rather go in September.

Definitely some schools will increase their fees, some will increase it slightly while some will leave it. It depends on their school policy.

How long you lived in the uk ?

LagosismyHome:
I live in uk. . Trust me you dont want to see my savings account .

Both countries are good/bad to different people. One brush doesnt paint all

Will they still increase school fees even during this economic hardship and also is it something they do every year?

Aprokodaughter:
Ah thats good,congratulations. I have accepted SHU September intake, don't want to go in January because of the crowd and some schools might increase school fees.
