AlphaUno:
Fellow Nigerians, studying in the UK is expensive. Using the student visa route (Tier 4) as a 'Japa' option will only leave sour taste in your mouth and that of others if no adequate prep.

Please do your homework and prepare adequately if you must go. Do not make the whole process and experience hard for others.

Prior to now schools ask for little or nothing as deposit and issue CAS without P O F but now, all that has changed with students unable to meet financial responsibilities and getting stranded

Prior to now, rents are required on a weekly (students accommodation) and monthly basis but in recent times, landlords/property owners now require 6 months payment and a guarantor for new occupants in some parts of UK.

No be by force to go UK o. Finland and other Scandinavian countries offer mostly tuition free degrees.
And if you are an agent, first question to ask your potential client is if financial capable to run the process.

This is not to discourage anyone. Your inefficiency @ any point in time will affect others.

After all, some folks (Doctors, Nurses, Engineers, and other professional) are good ambassadors of 9ja in US where we are recognized as the most educationally advanced people.
Now in the US, employers don't think twice to give Nigerian professionals jobs even to the disdain of 'foundational' black Americans

Thank you very much sir. I know a lot of people will not want to take this piece serious but you have made a lot of sense. Please people should do their research properly and make wise decisions. Most people are rushing to apply for social works, the question is do you have the passion for the job and also do you know what is required of a social worker.

Pls was it from the school you got this information?

Yes

jobgetter:

Can one buy pounds on Oanda?

I don't think so, though one can transfer money but Nigeria is not listed as participant of such service

Mannymanny:
Don’t be deceived, I renewed mine and my wife did fresh, both are enhanced, we got it last week... we paid 45k each...
if you pay the official price, you go tey small before u get am sha... Did it in Ibadan...

passport in Ibadan is 17k for e passprt, if they have commenced the enhanced then it is 26k. Nobody asked u to go pay a ridiculous amount to corrupt officials. I rather tey small and do the right thing and pay the official price. Nigeria will be great again. I am not deceived!

@justwise and my fellow future students please just to be sure can I apply for more than one course at the same time to the a particular university? E.g applying for International Marketing and applying for business analytics

Lordfiido:

How certain are you about the CAS ISSUANCE starting from tommorow ? This is because they just started the cas shield stuff last week.

Very sure, barring unforeseen circumstances at their end. They are already behind schedule due to large volume of students seeking admission. Going by their initial plan, 1st of April was supposed to be the last day for CAS issuance for the May intake.
Now, that they are done with offers, CAS comes next.
Classes are expected to start early May (2nd)

good evening house. Please I will like to know if it is mandatory for me to include my current study (Med) which am yet to finish in south africa while fiiling my application form for a masters degree in uk

Oggg:
passpprt is 26k. The new ppt is the enhanced e ppt which is 26k and only avail in lagos, abuja and ph. The other ppt issued in the remainin states is 17k for adults and 11k for children

Do we really have anyone who did the new passport @ 26k?
How is the 26k payment made, thru an officer or online?

Presently, the Minister has commissioned more states for the new enhanced passport. He added Enugu to the list on Thursday and added Oyo state in December. As at today, applicant should be able to get the new passport in not less than 10 states if not more

Lordfiido:

The new system they started for CAS last Thursday.

The fact that they started the shield thing last Thursday speaks volume about their next line of action. The shield thing is just an auto system that CAS applicants have their data on already and they can use to interface with school to download n upload necessary docs for eventual issuance of CAS.

I think 1st April is the deadline for CAS REQUEST not issuance.

leakage01:
Good evening all. Pls I received a conditional offer from DMU and was asked to answer 7 study gap questions on paper, submit my affidavit for change of name and pay 4k deposit. Am I to do all 3 before CAS will be issued? What is they my answers to the study gap questions do no meet up with their expectations and I have already made my 4k deposit?

Yes, for the offer to become unconditional .
You might get a refund depending on DMU's admission n refund policy

You are very right about this. So CAS issuance should start latest this week

Mosimileoluwa12:
Absolutely! Yes you can.

Thanks for the prompt response...I'm applying towards January 2023 intake. I hope I'm not too early. Some schools are taking applications already

bali233:


At what rate in dollars were u charged?

Apologies for the belated response as I just seeing this.

I was debited #1,160,504.64 for GBP2,019.92

Lordfiido:


I think 1st April is the deadline for CAS REQUEST not issuance.

Going by their earlier schedule which they are yet to change, it is CAS issuance.

Now that they are behind schedule, anything is possible. Even with the 1st of April date, it does not mean they can't accommodate late issuance with genuine reasons

Lordfiido:

Yes

Please someone should assist me on how to get my IHS to be refunded, I paid IHS sometimes last year but could not get CAS from the school I applied to, and I was refunded. While struggling for my IHS to be refunded, I saw a contact here "IHSRefunds@homeoffice.gov.uk" shared by someone and I sent a mail. I just received a generic reply since then I have not heard anything. Please someone should assist me with their contact pls.

Thank you.
