Interesting offwego,

Thanks for the screenshot. For some reasons I just checked now and it is same. Below is what I saw now.
Although, I understand applications sent via their regional office or agents is possible now.

Below is the chat.

I don't mind sending my application now so as to get a decision early and allow enough time for the other process. Can you please advise?


Thanks for your help!!

@justwise @duchess
Good morning please my question is that my husband is applying to a school in Uk for masters and I’ll be going with him as his dependant,and he intends to use his father’s bank statement for the 28days account statement required for cas and visa application,please I want to be sure if there won’t be an issue with that. Thanks

Please, if you’ve been refused visa ( visit visa) to the UK, must you write a cover letter when applying for study visa?
I was refused 2 visit visa applications last year with the second one in August and I’m applying for a study visa.
The visit visa application was to sit for exams for some courses I had done remotely( online) and I’m now applying to the same school to sit for the exams and complete the entire course ( as I couldn’t do anything more because of the refusals)
Please advice.
Thank you

When I go to embassy for visa, do I also need 3 months statement of account? I know people usually need to explain large deposits, is it necessary if for example you have large sum in your closing statement that has been there for more than 1 month for example? Do I need to explain it's from savings from like 4 years of living abroad in a different country.

The guidance has already been provided on what the tuition fees and maintenance requirements are for you as a [b]solo applicant ( i.e 28 and 30 day requirement) which should guide your planning and you do not need a 3 months bank statement as already mentioned. [/b]

Technically, explanations are not required for the origin of POF. However, if you submit a bank statement which covers your financing requirement in full and a[b] ridiculously large balance then you attract questions on your personal circumstance as a recently graduated student. You may at this point need to proactively focus the ECO by acknowledging this situation and providing explanations as to the origin of funds so your application may not be viewed in a certain type of way
[/b]
Also do any of you know anything about Uni of Greenwich, would you recommend it to someone you know or you have better Unis that are affordable (Masters in International Business, Entrepreneurship or HR) January 2023 intake.

[b]There are many reasons why students would choose a particular University. Ranking, fees, Location, proximity to family etc. What's important to you?

University of Greenwich has a diverse student population which includes a healthy number of Nigerian students so there is that sense of community. For students, who would like to do the MBA programme straight off their Undergrad studies(with no work experience) the University provides that flexibility which is appealing especially to Nigerian students. The student union president some years back was also of Nigerian origin.

The Greenwich campus is very picturesque and touristy . If you are a movie buff, the University is also a famous film location. Scenes from movies like, Tomb radar, Skyfall, the Kings speech, Dark Knight rises were filmed there. So as a student, you can jejely be walking and stumble on a movie set. there also used to be an Ice Rink at the Greenwich Campus during christmas so people come in to skate pre-covid.

The two programme areas you mentioned in your earlier email are open for January applications.[/b]

[quote author=thelonehermit post=115336598]@Mattmich @offwego thank you so much for taking out precious time to reply me, I really appreciate it a lot. You all are so kind and I already feel a sense of community here in this thread. Thanks so much.

Another thing,

I want to clarify if after showing POF (28 days maturity) to get CAS from Uni,

When I go to embassy for visa, do I also need 3 months statement of account? I know people usually need to explain large deposits, is it necessary if for example you have large sum in your closing statement that has been there for more than 1 month for example? Do I need to explain it's from savings from like 4 years of living abroad in a different country.

I dey search already but all schools I've seen. so far are way above my budget my budget is anything less than 20k pounds. UCL, and King's College are way above my budget

I applied for MSc Data Science and actually use NECO. While applying, I was asked to choose the pre-sessional English test if I didn’t have IELTS.

Little did I know that the pre-sessional English test will cost over £2k

thelonehermit:
Please is it possible to use Form A to pay for UK Uni tuition? if yes does anyone know the exchange rate?

Also if I pay full tuition for 1 year Msc, how much do I need to show for POF and what happens if God forbid I don't get the visa? the school will refund me abi? school in question is university of greenwich..

Also when showing POF for CAS do I need to explain large recent deposits? also for UK embassy is it 3 months statement of account or 1 month? I'm asking cos I will transfer a large deposit from my savings here to my Nigeria account which I plan to use for the visa application


Will really appreciate an answer

Jona48:
Gurus in the house, I greet una, a question for the road;

Send a follow up email to Bradford to confirm receipt of the tuition fees sent and highlight that it should be applied towards the January start. Please go ahead and schedule your TB test as you actually need to select a date based on availability of dates and start getting your POF in place.

I deferred my admission to January(from September) due to delay in fees payment from CBN but I was later debited today.
1: My school (University of Bradford) requires POF and TB before issuing CAS, is it too early to start the processing since I will be moving in January?

nofij:
Good evening all.

I received a conditional offer from the University of Gloucestershire. As part of my condition, I was asked to take a pre-sessional English course.

Can I still bypass this by taking IELTS instead?

Does UK embassy in Nigeria accept certified true copy of marriage certificate, for those who misplaced theirs?
Plz I need honest response

JamesHanu:
Thank you so much for this response..

Now I’m much concerned about the top up program. Since I can apply for a visa extension before the existing one expires. But how possible is it for me to apply for masters three months to the time I’m supposed to finish my top up program. I thought my top up student visa will be valid through out my program alone which can be a year…I’m just concerned about the extension cos I would like to continue from there instead of coming back home..

1. Are there universities in the Uk that truly accept HND for masters?. I mean maybe someone on here has tried it and it worked out. If yes please sir/ma I would like to see the lists of schools that accept HND so I can start making enquires pending the time I’m ready.

There are institutions that can consider an application for a direct Masters with an HND qualification. However, you must have most preferable an upper credit AND significant years of work experience

2. Also for the Bachelor’s top up degree program. Am I to come back to Nigeria and apply for masters after I completed the program? Or I can just switch directly while I’m still in the uk instead of coming back to Nigeria to apply for masters again?.

You do not need to return to your home country. you can apply for a visa extension. You must submit your visa extension application before your existing visa expires and no later, and you will need to have applied for the Masters Programme and received an offer of a place on the programme. The earliest you can apply is three months before the existing visa expires.

3.concerning the part payment of tuition fee, can someone in the uk help me pay probably if I send him/her the money to help me pay?..

Yes please

Fredaogb:
Good afternoon,

Oh! Thank you. Meanwhile, can you please share the link or advise on how/where to send the application? Like I said, the application tab for the program on the University website is not yet "live" for now. I still checked it few minutes ago.

Thanks for your help!

CowbellY:
They are using an agent that applied for a visit visa for them last month, failed. Now, applying for a study visa on their behalf as well.

CowbellY:
If.yoh have not submitted then add the rejection to it. And why are you using an agent in god's name. Filling a visa form is less than 20 mins process.

You are using the same agent that failed in getting you a visit visa now you're not sure what to do.

bigtt76:
it's a dicey one here and i tell you why.

1. The last rejection - family visit visa was refused despite mother and brother being residents, did she get her brother to invite her formally and present all the required evidences to show he was accommodating her? Applying now for student visa this early, may be seen as a ploy to migrate and could lead to another rejection. If she had known, an administrative review at that time could've sorted this out.

2. To remedy the situation if school eventual overlook the above, is to include a cover letter when submitting a new application detailing what happened leading to the last refusal highlighting the fact that the ECO misplaced bank account currency leading to wrong fund valuation.

3. You must also explain the huge deposits made to the account for the last refusal and also avoid making similar mistake in the current process.

JamesHanu:
Good day everyone.

Good job y’all are doing honestly. I’ve been a silent reader and observer because I believe I’ll soon start my application also.. okay here’s the thing. I finished my HND early June(though my results is still under review), then I used google in search of schools that accept HND for masters I was given some which had Sunderland university and Bournemouth university on the lists. I write to both schools and I was told they don’t accept HND for masters but instead they accept HND for top up programs which I can then switch to masters after a year…


Now my questions are these.

1. Are there universities in the Uk that truly accept HND for masters?. I mean maybe someone on here has tried it and it worked out. If yes please sir/ma I would like to see the lists of schools that accept HND so I can start making enquires pending the time I’m ready.

2. Also for the Bachelor’s top up degree program. Am I to come back to Nigeria and apply for masters after I completed the program? Or I can just switch directly while I’m still in the uk instead of coming back to Nigeria to apply for masters again?.

3.concerning the part payment of tuition fee, can someone in the uk help me pay probably if I send him/her the money to help me pay?..


I’ll so much appeal if I see an answers to this questions

Fredaogb:
I applied to Ulster University Birmingham campus and when I checked my status it indicated "Application query". Pls is there anyone who applied and saw same on their status?

*Also, Is there anyone who is yet to get a Conditional offer from University of Northampton since they applied. I applied since 15th of May and I got an update via email from the school to re-apply for the next program intake. Unfortunately, the application tab for Education (MA) program will not be live till ending of August as I contacted the school when I couldn't not re-apply.
Has anyone in the same situation been able to pull through?

* I will also appreciate if I can get details of some UK Universities with fast response time for January 2023 intake. I am looking at Education MA program.

Thank you!

Good afternoon everyone, please if a school is asking for affidavit concerning error on date of birth of transcript on the offer letter , can the person get it from any court in Nigeria , though the person didn’t school in Nigeria or must it be in the country the student studied ?
Please I need your help

MadarasBlade:
Hello guys.

Please i finished my Nysc last year February, i don't have any work experience other than the one i acquired during Nysc.

I am currently writing a cv and my agent is making a big deal out of the whole thing, she sounds so negative.

Does it really affect my chance for admission?

Note: i graduated 2020.

cc150615:
All I see here is a school that's desperate not to lose it's Nigerian customers, and are now granting them waiver.

talantolo:
Hello house,
i was rejected my visit visa, the rejection letter attached to the mail was blank but i have no right to appeal or administrative review. I sent a paid email and i was told i should wait 15working days (i think it's a generic response). please my question is, can i reapply again immediately or i should wait 3 months again before reapplying?

mydeporch:
This is encouraging. I got a visit visa refusal in April. Am really worried it might affect my application. Am worried because I use a relative biz name that I work there and no salary was reflecting in my account. I had funds entering account as I was helping wt my parents house project since dy are not in Naija. They said It was inconsistent .....If I had known, I would not have tried it. I will use faith believing it will work out since it's a different class of application.Na only faith remain
