I connect it with my TV.

I did Winter Sale With Virgin Media on a contract of £54/Month to watch all the sports package (BT Sport & SkySport) and all the TV station here.

The package include 1.1Gbps of Internet + one year Netflix

Actually a decent deal. Since it includes Internet and Netflix

My thoughts is that ..not everyone is comfortable on a care job for that lenght of time. He might be thinking, why not take up something else to allow the wife rest a little.



Ook, did not know the job the wife is in was a care job. That makes sense then since the husband's job is better

Hi boss,

Please are there jobs in Northampton as I have an MSC offer from Northampton University. Also have from Salford but the Northampton's fee is cheaper


Yes. My friend in North Hampton didn't have issues with jobs

He did Security with SIA license and CCTV monitoring (never did care and the likes) and never complained about job issues.

Man made some decent money grin

@hustla From your comment, I can see you are still a boy.

You, who still dey look for money from your 20-hour job to bring your dependant from Isale EKO, you dey open your mouth dey talk to me.

I don't blame you, I blame the faceless forum.

As for ancestor, @Lexus430, I'm sorry for mentioning your name, and truthfully, you don't owe me anything but again miracle no dey tire Jesus.

@yolkman20, I pray God will step quickly into your situation and provide that COS. I can understand the situation you are in right now, and it will come good.

Please, if you are not going to provide a solution or give reasonable and constructive advice, just pass, because you don't know what others are going through and you are not in their shoes.

Peace.









Those who seek info must come with clean hands and patiance.Some people do have life outside NL

They were picked for the funding, but not for endorsing the visa. You still need Tech Nation’s endorsement.

I am not able to talk about England or Wale cos Ilive in Scotland.

For Scotland, councils like Highlands, Western Isles, Argyll and Bute. If you wanna go further try Shetland or Orkney council.

There's nothing you can do, apart from to dey continue dey check the website to see if person go cancel release slot or if you can, shift your waka.
I know the ones in England are crowded, it used to be war in Manchester, and even here in Edinburgh dem don reach mid-June already (I just booked).
I got a visa early 2022 and after that experience, I now planned 6 months ahead for this one.

Great. You've escalated to the VC office.
Trust you also copied the International office, registrar in.
Someone mention Twitter, kindly do that as well.

Below are from your university. PS: I only researched. I don't have firsthand experience of ENU.
See link here and pic for extract.
Apparently, 2nd attempt at Napier is considered ‘Extenuating Circumstances’ , which has its own (Linksmiley procedure
In the circumstances, perhaps you might explore
- Apply for Retrospective Extenuating Circumstances
- Apply for Exceptional Extenuating Circumstances
Kindly pay attention to your university's Regulation A7 (noting A7.10 & A7.11) read with A4.1b and A4.1

Regarding PGDip as opposed to MSc, my understanding of how university works, is that, indeed, you can 'exit' with a 'lesser' degree award. By its nature, PGDip does not require you to fulfill the 'thesis/dissertation' requirement. Kindly, reaffirm if you must submit thesis/dissertation for PGDip.
In actual fact, what's common is for student to complete coursework and opt to exit with PGDip, instead of the MSc; by simply excluding themselves from the thesis/dissertation/project.
For your university, kindly take note of Regulation A4.1[/b]a), b), [b]c) or f) which enables Napier to conferred PGDip as Aegrotat award (unclassified) to you. Read A11.11 and A4.8 (perhaps with A11.12) alongside A4.1c
PS: the Scottish NQF is similar but different from England.

[Disclaimer: I'm not exactly sure how this work]. You may want to explore doing the one outstanding course through Open University.
Maureen4sure:
Thank you for your suggestions and advice. @Contra5, I have since emailed the vice chancellor regarding my situation.
... ...
My school is Edinburgh Napier University, and yes, students can retake a module twice within a three-month grace period.
... ...
My school is notorious for locking your school app if you fail your school fee repayment plan; even if you miss just one month, your school app will be locked Until they receive your payment.
... ...
The school finance team is very much aware of the situation of Form A in Nigeria; they just don't care. In fact, you get reported to the UKVI in the second month of your failed repayment plan.
... ...
A lot of Nigerian students here in the UK are going through a lot: some accommodation challenges, some financial challenges ( not getting a job), and some academic challenges.
Peace.

Maureen4sure:
... ...
I've been in the UK since January of last year on a student visa.
To get straight to the point, I failed one of my modules and also failed to resit, all not due to my fault.

My school app was locked due to a school fee delay from Form A; ... ...
I also received an email this morning from my module leader saying that I will be awarded a postgraduate diploma instead of a master's degree.
... ...
I will be submitting my dissertation by April, so I will be officially finished with school.
Please, where do I go from here?
I am a caregiver, and I have been for a year now. Getting COS from most care homes as a student has not been easy.
Hopefully, after submitting my dissertation, I can get a care home that can sponsor me.
