Yeah. It's good you confirm on time if your chosen course requires an ATAS certificate. Also note that if you wish to start in January, you must have applied for your ATAS certificate as we speak. A course starting on January 17th, 2023 for instance, you should make sure you complete your ATAS application on or before 17th of this month...that's just 2 days away.

I wish us all good luck.

Engr2016:
Nawa o! Thanks to our well informed dudes in this forum. I have really learnt a lot from you guys! Just imagine, I have never heard of anything called ATAS certificate before until I saw it on this thread.

I have checked. My course doesn't require ATAS certificate. Many thanks.

You will know if your course requires ATAS and that doesn't require PTDF list to be out before you apply

I also have my CAS.. I'm just waiting patiently for PTDF greenlight. I hope the list gets out Asap

jlomz:


When is the extension they offered you ending?

Not even sure. They just asked me to keep them abreast of the interview result.

Please if one had gone ahead to pay tuition deposit and even applied for visa, will PTDF reimburse?

babey543:

There is enough time. PTDF can also pay for priority visa which takes only 5 working days.

Ensure you have your international passport and admission letter ready.

Good luck.

Visa processing takes 3 weeks from the day of submission. Abuja gets you faster dates for submission as Lagos is usually crowded but you can also try walk-ins and struggle with mammoth crowds at the gates. All-in-all, you need an average of 4-5 weeks to get the visa, so you do have time

No. The school has the responsibility to refund

Bro, as far as it possible, avoid schools that demands tuition deposit unless you can easily pay it. Just wait till PTDF releases the result before taking further actions. If you are successful, PTDF will handle all funds related matters within their mandate.

I think it's even lesser than 2 weeks. I applied by June 29th. Offer came in by July 8th. That is about 10days.

Hi, I am trying to hold up well and wishing something positive comes out of all this tension.

That being said, no admissions yet in France as many timelines for application are closed till maybe September. Same thing with Germany.

Same here. I even sent message to them to know the status of my application. I've not gotten any reply.

Call the admissions office and talk to them, hope you've included your application number in the email you sent, else they won't know which applicant you are.

I wonder what's making their process very slow.

Last I heard Priority visa option is not available anymore for Tier 4 visas, so you'll need about 3 weeks or more from submission date to get your visa.

They have started priority visa but at very low amount.

Good evening,

Please does ptdf arrange the admission for or do the students get their admission by themselves.

My sister applied for ptdf and went for the interview but hasn't applied to the schools yet. should she go ahead and apply or wait for ptdf list to be out.

Thanks

No! PTDF doesn't arrange admissions for successful candidates. Your sister will have to apply to the universities herself. Some schools in UK are still accepting applications.

Having obtained CAS and meeting the school English language requirement, does one need to prove/present English language certificates (eg WAEC) during UK Visa application?

Nice one

After meeting the school's English Requirements you may not need to meet the school's English Requirements again, However,it is better to be safe than to be sorry.

whatever evidence you provide to meet the school english requirement has to be submitted as proof along with your visa application. That said your CAS should cover whatever it is you used

you must have met English language requirement before you got CAS. How did u get CAS without requirements.?
After all, most UK schools don't require test of English from Nigeria.
