Bro congratulations;

Firstly i am happy because u said you r not going to hussle out your stay in the Uk. I have been to wales and my brother i am sorry to tell you that the welish are basically racists, and would strongly advise you 2 stick to what took you there, excel well and let them know that the black nation is full of brains. Come back home after your studies and I bet you having a degree from an International University expecially from a counry like uk, Here in Nigeria the sky is your limit. You would live large and at the same time do your motherland proud by putting hands together with others to build a better Nigeria.

Best of luck Bro, remember Nigeria is watching you.

I really did appreciate your response in this present application I made, I attached a letter from our sponsor then ( a state government) explaining that my overstay was due to late approval of visas which led to a mix up in the depature and arrival dates on our tickets ( which was what actually happened). Although my contract expired with them 2 months ago. I am really hoping that the ECO is convinced because right now all i want to do is to further my education.

Its a pity I had not see this site before I applied. Non the less this is my situation, I was at the Uk last year for a tournament which was supposed to last for a week, i ended up staying a month, sincerely speaking I never knew it was  going to affect my immigration status as it was the first time I would travel out of my home country. Upon my arrival I got an admission offer in the Uk so I applied for a students visa ( bearing in mind that my vistors visa was still valid- 6 Mult), I was subsiquently refused on the grounds that I over stayed my first visit and was given a right to appeal. Based on this I was wondering Why didin't hey give me a week Visa, I was not disturbed because I thought I had a valid six months visa; Back to my story, I did not appeal but rather I reapplied on two seprate occassions and was denied on the basis of In sufficient funds and that the course I chose was not in line with my first degree. Since then I stayed off the BHC and the VFS untill two months ago when my uncle in the Uk called to tell me that I had been given another admission offer. This time my Dad who is my sponsor paid in full the tution fees and he even paid the Living expences to the educaional agent I am using (this which i believe is not necessary) to show a sign of commitment and dedication. Reciepts and prove of these payments were attached in my application. I really don't know what I am feeling, did I do it right this time or rather would u permit me to ask what my chances are, copuled with the fact that i submitted late I.e 29th august, 2007

My people, abroad is just like cultism if you enter you month will shot up, you can never tell somebody in Nigeria what you are seeing,  am just reading the secret here in Nairaland. All of you that are blaming us for not calling and sending you £ i pray one day you will come over and send £ to all your friends in Nigeria. £ is everywhere just last week Queen gave everybody £2k now to spend on calls and sending home, even there is holes in the wall were money no dey finish,anytime anyday just go there you will get £ any amt you want. You guys and gyls in Nigeria are missing something ewu awusa.

Dont worry i will send £ when i dey wake up 5AM to go work at sub zero temp while u are there snoring like over feed cow.

Guy you r not sounding patrotic at all I have been to the Uk and I know what its Like. Nigerians in the UK are quite stingy. I experienced myself, Imaging visiting someone in the UK and after One week of visitation the person expects you to be sharing the payment of the bills with him. What do you think about that.

What would if you got to know that girlfriend had slept with two of your friends before you met her while you guys are thinking of marriage.

hi i am  new on the block I  have Three refusals on my passport already last year and I just submitted a new application yesterday, I am really scared, Please can someone tell me what my chances are.
