That's great. Congrats. I got my grant today.

Kindly share us your timeline with the course and school. Congratulations

To apply, one must have the following

1. Proof of Identity (International passport/birth certificate/NIN)
2. Proof of Teaching Qualifications (Certificates and Transcript)
3. Proof of English (Language test like IELTS, Pearson etc/Letter of Introduction by school)
4. Proof of Professional Standing (to be issued by TRCN)
5. Proof of Work History (Name and email of a Professional contact)

Aside the above, one should have at least two years teaching experience

The application for the Qualified Teachers Status (QTS) in England started some hours back. It's an opportunity Nigerians, especially Teachers have been waiting for.

Like their counterparts in the medical fields, it is an opportunity for Teachers to japa. For now the opportunity only open to two countries in Africa; Ghana and Nigeria.

Let's gather together to assist one another on this journey...

My sponsor was asked to make it 13-16 million.

A friend of mine was asked to make his 20 million.

Different opinions everywhere.

It’s better to be safe than sorry.

Variation can be attributed to difference in course of study, tuition fees, school, location of school, cost of living, etc.

Sure, you can

Hello Nicosia, great to know you are in Melbourne! Please I will be happy to connect, just recently came in on Wednesday to Melbourne. This is my email so I share my number (mekmolly at gmail )

Skyrocket1:
Hello guys, please for those that have done their medicals at Dr Fatayi Williams clinic, did you have to book in online for the test, or just walk in? Thanks

Check for their contact online otherwise you go in person(if you're in Lagos) for firsthand information

Check up with your school of choice, I don't think it should be an issue

No time is a bad time but people prefer mid and end of year admission

Welcome, may we all be favoured

IOM

Don't know about IOM but while at Fatai, one can ask for outcome of the results except for TB scan which would be sent out. If you're medically inclined or you shuk eye for everything or you ask questions, you'd be able to know your results that day.

Rollzmond20:
Please will my Australian visa medical result be sent to my mail?
Also, if the result is abnormal would I be informed before sending it to Australia?

Where did you have you medicals; IOM or Fatai Clinic?

Innocent4life00:

jiedeki:

Any positive response would be appreciated.

Thank you

Check Qatar Airways

ChuckMars:
Can someone pls advice on how to pay tuition fees, the form A route has shown to be quite stressful.. really need a much faster payment option

Look for someone in the abroad that can help you pay with foreign currency while you settle the person in naira (black market rate) equivalent.

ChikeGreat:
Good afternoon house, can someone give me an idea of what the bank balance of a sponsor should be...!?

Sum your tuition, accommodation and expenses for a year. I think having this would go a long way

I think it's USD but I'd advise you dont have upto that in cash but saved in your account to avoid being queried.

You can ask your friend to hold on till when you get in, open an account then the money can be sent to your account for use. However, the money may take like 24/48 hours before it drops because it's a new account so the earlier you open the account, the better.

engrlarex:
The 10K in USD or AUD. I am planning to get some USD from a friend.

Congratulations

Greetings to everyone.

All praise to Yahweh!!!

My heartfelt gratitude to “Coulson”, Mary, Joel, Aaron (well I don’t know if the three latter are on here), and everyone that have contributed/contributing positively to this thread!

Below is my own timeline/quota/Contribution

School - RMIT
Program - Health Science (PhD)


7/12/2022 - lodged in my visa application

12/12/2022 - medicals

4/1/2023 - Received s56 receipt (Case Officer asked for evidence of current location).

16/1/2023 - Received Grant.

Note:
No biometrics
Reason - Mainland China is not among the countries listed on the biometrics collection program. Although I called and emailed DHA (department of home affairs), and was instructed to attach a letter to my immiaccount regarding the situation.

“ If you are resident in a country not listed on the biometrics collection program, be rest assured that it can be waived.”


Shalom!!!

Well captured! Thanks for the information

1. I applied through an agent and paid an agency fee of #250K as at then. consider dollar variation.
2. Your intended course of study should be in-line with your first degree and your professional duties over the years.
3. I am a co-director/founder of an engineering company and which is functional. I also have my own company in operation.
4. I used the other company as a sponsor being one of the director, I used that in the GTE process with a closing balance of about #32M.
5. I have a landed properties worth over #15M. I did the survey and the proposed architectural design of the one of the intended house to be built with the assumption it is currently on-going.
6. I am married with a kid. So it can be said that I have a very strong home ties. I am giving you all of these to know how demanding their Documentations can be, some agent may not tell you the truth about convincing them you have every reasons to be back after studies.
7. I applied as married with my kid and wife as part of the visa application but I am the only one going.
8. I did the SOP review with the agent because I was part of every process start to finish.
9. Upon Receipt of admission, I made my payment via form A of about $8300 initial deposit black market is about #4.3M then.
10. COE was issued upon purchase of health insurance. And the visa was processed.
11. Did medicals and biometric two weeks interval. And the visa was issued after 10days of the medical.

In all, you might not be lucky to use form A, Average initial deposit of school fees is always around #4-5M. Health Insurance and Visa fee slightly above #1M. Medicals and Biometric #85K. If IELTS is required #83-85K.
Your statement of account will be sorted by you depending on your circumstances and other statutory documents that may be needed based on your application conditions and process.


Wishing you and others best of luck.

Thank you

Please do share when you get around it. Thanks

I would advise tou to book hotel reservations for 2/3 days or school accommodation for a week then when you enter, you'd meet people to share with

balqees004:
Good morning house, been following the trend for a while. Been helpful. Pls I intend to apply for masters in University of Tasmania. Pls what is the POF for a family of 4. And can someone share the application link pls. Thanks...

Google search postgraduate studies or masters in University of Tasmania

You should get appreciable information to work with

Sirlancelot:
Hi dear nairalanders,complement.i just applied for admission in Canada but how to pay the admission fee of 120 cad is really giving me sleepless night. I have used my naira card but it keeps bringing error hitches.
Anyone here that can help?i will pay the money in naira or any idea how it is done. Thank you.I will apply for the dollar card later.

Go to Canada Student thread and ask, you'd get suitable responses

Prowess007:
Thanks so much bro.

I've checked the link. It's about #299/Aussie.

If I may ask, what am I expected to prepare as POF, and how much?
I mean the composition of my POF, and how much is required for each composition?
Plus, is it really 3 months Statement?

Pardon my ignorance pls

Your admission letter would guide you here. First semester/year fee+1year upkeep fees (equivalent in local currency) plus addition just in case of fluctuations in exchange rates

Congratulations on your admission
May the Almighty ease your affairs till the final stage.

On the monetary requirements, get the naira equivalent of the required amount in your proof of funds and pay the initial fee with health insurance. You can use xedotcom for conversion rate, however, from my knowledge gained here so far, people use Form A or assistance from people onshore or someone in the abroad to help pay their fees. The last two are the most preferred because they require less time time but one needs to shine his/her eyes. Also, one can make use of a reliable agent.

Success is yours

Prowess007:
Good Day Everyone.
God Bless you for all the information so far.
Please, I just got a MSc Degree offer , and espected to meet up with a list of conditions.
