I can confirm to you that the cheapest school in the entire UK as far as this course is concerned is university of hull... £11,000. But unfortunately, the have closed to International till January 2023.

But here's my advice, seeking pre-CAS dep of 1k may sound good and conservative, but always bear in mind that 50% is a must for almost all UK schools at enrollment and you're still going to face it upon arrival.

So, here's the catch; seek schools with low tuition and it will be ur best bet. For instance, UCLAN tuition is £14,500 for this course, Bradford fee is £18,500 but will offer you £5,000 in scholarships.

So, explore Google, look out for low tuition, it'll be worth the while.

Thanks.
There is University of Bolton at £12,450 and 1 to 3k discount depending on grade
University of Chester at £13,450.. I think discount of 3k
Northampton £15,000 up to 30% discount
Salford, Robert Gordon, Bournemouth

Please I need some cheapest universities in UK where I can study my master degree in Economics or Econometrics.

I hold bachelor degree in economics with first class and national diploma in Banking and Finance with Distinction.

Any information to assist me in furthering my studies outside Nigeria will be highly appreciated.
Why don't you check out London School of Economics and Political Science. Most of these "top ranked" schools offer full funding to deserving underrepresented students. Their admission requirements are stringent though.. LSE for example accepts only first class grads on her msc econ programs. With your grade, your target should be a free masters wink also check University of East Anglia, they have a special scholarship for their Economics applicants.
Honorable mention is Oxford uni tongue they have application fees sha

This exam is for NA 2020 applicants if I'm not wrong. NA 2022 hasn't started so your sister probably registered for BEA. She can still check her applicant portal

Good evening all.

I need your assistance.

I moved to UK last year November on Healthcare Visa. My family just got their Visa approved and planning to come in may or june.

My husband is of opinion that he will only spend two weeks and return to Nigeria because he has some loan to pay back in Nigeria. He plans to work till December before he finally joins us.


Below are my questions.

1. What is implication of my husband decision to stay outside UK more than 6months

2. Is his decision capable of affecting us in future when we are to switch Visa status?

I will appreciate if anyone can assist with above questions.

Thank you

FamilyRe: Have I Made A Wrong Decision? by Lastbornbuns: 11:40am On Jan 30, 2022
theFullstackGuy:
Good day everyone!

I have a friend who started learning to code in 2020 with me. We were together when we began the journey but in 2021, he went back to school and I went to service. I was lucky to have learnt coding and started getting little gigs. However, my friend on the other hand struggled to learn coding.

Now, in 2022 I am still serving and was still getting gigs but they don't really pay that much. My friend called me and explained to me how difficult it was for him to grasp the concept of web development. So, I decided to invite him over to live with me so I will guide him (he is actually undergoing his one year IT), even though I am not buoyant. He doesn't have any money which implies that I foot every bill.

It is a big burden to me and so, I am asking for an advice.

Did I do something wrong by inviting him over or should I tell him that the burden is too much so he would leave?

I don't want to make a decision that I will regret later in the future.

Please honest and genuine advice needed
Why didn't you think it through before inviting him to live with you? Well the deed is done. Tell him the burden is getting too much for you alone. At least see if he can take care of his feeding and other personal bills. After all, if he was not living with you, he'd still have those bills. There's no need to shoulder everything for him. He's a grown adult.

I recently graduated from the university and i got admission in school of nursing here in Nigeria.


I have an uncle who is based in USA and he wants me to come over to USA and take care of his child for two yrs.After two yrs,he will sponsor me to any school of my choice n within the two yrs,i will be doing part time program.

I will be 25yrs this year.

Should i continue with my nursing school which will be resuming on April or accept the offer.I am in a dilemna.

Pls advice me.
Mod pls help move it to front page .Thanks all
Hope this your uncle won't "forget" his promise after 2 years? And what exactly will you be doing for the whole 2 years? Just looking after his children?? For 2 years? All day everyday??
There is nothing I hate more than depending on another person's "mercy". How is he sponsoring you? Is there any childcare visa abi wetin? Hope you know human trafficking is real and thriving? Not saying that's what he plans to do but "the heart of man is desperately wicked. Who can know it?"
As a doctor in the US he should be able to afford childcare and its just for one child. This promise get as e be o
My dear attend your school of nursing. Its just 3 years and they're not affected by ASUU strike. Rather than wasting 2 years of your life looking after someone else's child for a "vague" promise of sponsorship.
It's even uncle not direct family member, I doubt he can sponsor you under family visa. Do find out from him the route he wants you to apply under.

HealthRe: 16 And 17 Of Age Can Now Receive COVID-19 Jabs In Nigeria - NPHCDA by Lastbornbuns: 2:30pm On Jan 17, 2022
Konskott:
*Breaking News: US Supreme Court has canceled universal vaccination*

In the United States, the Supreme Court has canceled universal vaccination. Bill Gates, US Chief Infectious Disease Specialist Fauci, and Big Pharma have lost a lawsuit in the US Supreme Court, failing to prove that all of their vaccines over the past 32 years have been safe for the health of citizens! The lawsuit was filed by a group of scientists led by Senator Kennedy.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr .: “The new COVID vaccine should be avoided at all costs.

I urgently draw your attention to important issues related to the next vaccination against Covid-19.

For the first time in the history of vaccination, the so-called mRNA vaccines of the latest generation directly interfere with the patient's genetic material and therefore alter the individual genetic material, which is genetic manipulation, which was already prohibited and was previously considered a crime.
*The coronavirus VACCINE IS NOT A VACCINE! ATTENTION!*
What has always been a vaccine?
It was always the pathogen itself - a microbe or virus that was killed or attenuated, that is, weakened - and it was introduced into the body in order to produce antibodies.
Not even a coronavirus vaccine!
She's not that at all!
It is part of the newest group of mRNA (mRNA) allegedly "vaccines"
Once inside a human cell, mRNA reprograms normal RNA / DNA, which begins to make another protein.
That is, nothing to do with traditional vaccines! That is, it is an instrument of genetic influence. *Gene weapon!* That is, they were going to destroy from earthlings, and the survivors will become GMOs!
Following the unprecedented mRNA vaccine, the vaccinated will no longer be able to treat the symptoms of the vaccine in an additional way.
Vaccinated people will have to come to terms with the consequences, because they can no longer be cured by simply removing toxins from the human body, as in a person with a genetic defect such as Down syndrome, Klinefelter syndrome, Turner syndrome, genetic heart failure, hemophilia, cystic fibrosis, Rett syndrome, etc.), because the genetic defect is forever!

This clearly means:
if a symptom of vaccination develops after mRNA vaccination, neither I nor any other therapist can help you, because
DAMAGE CAUSED BY VACCINATION WILL BE GENETICALLY Irreversible.

*❗Vaccination*
*weapons of genocide of the 21st century.*

Former Pfizer Chief Scientist Mike Yeedon has once again expressed his position that it is too late now to save those who have been injected with a substance publicly called "the Covid-19 vaccine."

He encourages those who have not yet received the lethal injection to fight for their lives, those around them and the lives of their children.

The internationally renowned immunologist goes on to describe a process that he says will kill the vast majority of people:
"Immediately after the first vaccination, about 0.8% of people die within two weeks.
The average life expectancy of survivors will be a maximum of two years, but it also decreases with each new "injection". "

Additional vaccines are still being developed to cause deterioration in certain organs, including the heart, lungs and brain.

After two decades at Pfizer, Professor Yedon was familiar with the functions and research and development goals of pharmaceutical giant Pfizer, and states that the ultimate goal of the current "vaccination" regime can only be a massive demographic event that will make all world wars put together, like Mickey's staging Mouse.

"Billions of people have already been sentenced to certain, inevitable and painful death. Anyone who receives the injection will die prematurely, and three years is a generous estimate of how long they can survive."

May God help us o. Some of us have started with the first dose, waiting for the second jab/dose! A serious confusion, if this is authentic. This will have a very grave consequences. A reappraisal suit against the promoters of COVID19 VACCINES should immediately be filed to bring them to book. They are to face GENOCIDE case, and this should be before the International criminal court of justice.... I won't rest my case.
This is more than serious�������

*LET THIS INFORMATION GO OUT FAR AND WIDE!*
Let us say no to false information. Verify and fact check before sharing "news". A quick Google search would've prevented this post. Honestly if "they" wanted to reduce "world population" they dont need to think up a whole new virus and vaccine for it. They'd just let tropical diseases wipe out Africans. Don't you know most of our medicines and indeed most of what we use are imported from "the abroad"?

This is a personal issue that is bothering me. I have decided to post it here with the hope that I would get matured advise here.

Please, I didn't post this for likes and shares. Na solution I dey find abeg
Babajeje123

Your wife has the typical Nigerian entitlement mentality and methinks her family members are encouraging her. As someone pointed out, she's probably the spokesperson. What is happening here is typical "I have a son/daughter in the abroad that should be sending pounds and dollars every month so I can live the good life and show people that we have arrived". She's probably still seeing the UK through Rose colored lens.

As a new arrival, you have no business sending money home till you find your feet and you even said you're paying off debts due to the move. Sometimes when people talk about changing numbers and limiting contact with "home" people, we shouldn't judge them. Na dem sabi as de shoe take de pinch.

Your wife isn't working but she wants her mom to be placed on monthly salary on your own account. She feels justified because you apparently "have the funds to bring your own mom to UK" so why should hers be left out? If she does nothing, her own mom would probably say bad things and poison her mind... or not. There are mothers like that.

What you should do is to sit her down. Show her the estimated child care costs, living costs, visa costs etc. Then invite her to bring suggestions on how the two of you can raise funds for these costs or at the very least what you both can do to reduce some of these costs. Let her understand that life is hard o. If possible, put your income and expenditure on a spreadsheet. There will be time for showing off later when you both must have found your feet. Let her understand that her loyalty and yours first and foremost is to your immediate family. That is, your spouse and children. Not your mother, not your brother, not your sister. Same with her. Let her understand that it's not a competition whose mom will come to the UK first. Your 5 year old can start school so you just have to figure out childcare costs for the 3 year old. This too shall pass. Remove all thoughts of separation and divorce from your mind. The real victims are your children. You wouldn't like to subject them to custody battles and the rest of that.

I'm still a student in Nigeria though so I can't really relate to the challenges of moving. In all, let love guide you. You married her for a reason. Remember that.

Neither am I pursuing it because of job cos this country is a joy and motivation killer. I'm only pursuing it because it's one of the many things that will make me self fulfilled.

This mentality is just wrong undecided have more faith in yourself.
You need a minimum of around 4.9 in the remaining 4 semesters (including the past 3.1 you're yet to get results for) to get a first. In other words, one B per semester
Always target 5.0 each semester. There's no harm in trying. Good luck
Even if you don't get it, at least you'd know you tried your best at the time and you'd end up with a high 2.1 smiley it's a win either way

Is 300l 1st semester gp included in the 4.0? If yes, it might not be possible. If no, you'd need all A's subsequently to land at 4.5 dot.
This is just based on the info provided as I don't know the credit loads you've done so far and the ones you're yet to do. For a 160 credit load duration (100 to 400l), you'd need at least 720 points to get a 4.5 cgpa.
