Since you are still within the time frame, why pressuring yourself?.

Which school are you going for?
I know right but I’m suppose to be in school September 13th.

University of surrey

Hi people,

Just to be sure how often do they check for proof of funds at the entry border?

Has anyone had to show bank statements at the arrival or departure airports more recently ?

Hello house.

I did my biometrics on the 24th of July. Got the “unable to make a decision within normal timeframe” email on August 12 ( working day 13), no other information. Then they resent the same email again on the 18th of August (working day 17) except that the requested for additional document which is a bank statement I originally uploaded in my application. I submitted it that same day and has been waiting since then. Today is working day 20. Any one has an idea of how frequently they’ll reply or if there’s anything I can do?

Hello house ! Please I need an advice on this issue, I gained and given a visa to study at university of Gloucestershire England , now the issue now is I want to go early and visit a family member in Scotland before school resumes. Can I travel directly to Edinburg Scotland or still go through England airport due to immigration issues? Hope I won’t encounter any issues at Scotland or better still I should go and board train jeje to Scotland. Thanks
How early do you want to enter?

It’s just a waiting game now, as stressful as it is. I’m in the same boat -- same biometrics timeline, still waiting for a decision.

Only home students can claim bursary as it is government funded.
International students who require a VISA to study can only fight for scholarships in part tuition fee reduction.
The PGCE in Modern Foreign Languages and Physics offers bursaries of up to £25 million under the Train to Teach program.
If you do not understand, please ask.

Since your student visa is for the United Kingdom, it covers England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland, so once you enter the UK, you are free to travel anywhere within these countries.

However, when entering the UK for the very first time on a student visa, immigration rules and Border officials at your first entry point may check your visa, CAS, and study documents

Going straight to Scotland may not be the best option, if i'm in your position i will go through England and travel to Scotland by bus or train.

I will also prefer traveling first week of Sept than last week of August

See, most schools are starting 15th September, and it orientation the and there is always latest date as well if you check your cas you will know that the 13 is not the deadline.

Note: you are not alone. The more pressure you mount on urself the more negative thought. What if I tell you that I am waiting for mine as well?. Dem go whine you but no panick
