Since July 16th here
I think you should do a paid call and ask about the status of your application. My Visa got approved today but no email yet. I called and asked about the status of my application and I was told a decision has been made -- I proceeded to UKVI website, created an account and attempted to link my eVisa... Of course, it was successful.

This is my timeline if it helps:

Bio -- 23rd July

NSF email -- 8th August

First paid enquiry (email) -- 14th August (requested them to escalate as it's passed 15 working days for standard visa application)

CAS Used -- 15th August

Second paid enquiry (call) -- 26th August: Decision made but no email yet.

I proceeded to UKVI website and created an account, filled in the 'Link eVisa' form and behold it was successful.

Try asking them (UKVI) to escalate your issue, and contact your school to know the status of your CAS.

Hello everyone, please assist me.

I tried to apply for an Msc program in York St John University but after filling up a form on their website and submitted, I haven't received a follow up mail for application continuation, what could be the issue? Or are my using the wrong website?

Good morning everyone, I’d love your feedback.

Hey everyone! I know this is a bit off-topic, but I’d really appreciate some practical advice.

I’m planning to enroll in a tech school in Nigeria, but I don’t want to pick just any random program. My goal is to choose a school that’s well recognized in the diaspora, not just in Nigeria. I believe that could help me:

- find jobs anywhere, and
- improve my chances when applying for visas or international opportunities.

A few quick questions to get your thoughts and experiences flowing:

1) What Nigerian tech schools or programs are widely recognized abroad (in the US, Europe, or other countries)?

2) Are there specific accreditation bodies or global rankings I should look for when evaluating Nigerian tech schools?

3) How much weight do international recognition and alumni networks carry compared to local quality and hands-on training?

4) Any tips for verifying a school’s global reputation (case studies, employer partnerships, industry certifications, or visa success stories)?

5) For those who’ve studied or worked abroad after Nigerian tech education, what steps helped you the most (internships, remote work, certifications, or portfolio projects)?

If you’ve got personal experiences, recommendations, or resources (websites, ranking lists, accreditations, or contact people), I’d be grateful to hear them.

Thank you all in advance for your insights!

Hello@ Everyone,

I have been refused a Canadian student visa three times, and I am concerned if this will prevent me from obtaining a UK student visa?

Thank you
Go here -- https://www.gov.uk/evisa/set-up-ukvi-account

Then follow the onscreen instructions. Note that the account you created during your application is different from this. Start by creating an account, then follow the instructions. At some point you'll need to switch to the 'UK Immigration: ID Check' app to verify your identity -- use 'Connection Codes' to make the switch.

That's really stressful. If you can, get your school to contact them.

I did my biometrics on 8th August, I’m yet to hear anything. Not even a mail requesting for additional documents.
Imagine. Do you want a mail requesting additional information?. Or don't you believe it can come out with requesting any additional mail ?

Be positive!!!

The worst thing that could happen is they will call you for credibility interview to ascertain if you are truly a genuine student.

If you pass the interview, you get ur visa as far as you tick other boxes (criteria). People who have two and three Canada refusal has testified in this thred . Just be positive. When was your biometrics

Good morning everyone.
I just got my admission and will be paying my tuition deposit this week.

There’s something I’d like to get your thoughts on. I’m married and we have a son. My plan is to bring my wife and child to UK after completing my Master’s program. For those who might have experience or know more about this, what are the chances of successfully bringing them over at that point?

I’d really appreciate your opinions and advice 🙏🏽

University of the West of Scotland (UWS)

Offers MRes in fields like Biomedical Science with fees around £13,500–£14,000 per year .

Scotland-based campuses (Paisley/Ayr) often mean slightly lower living costs compared to major English cities .

Hello@doublestar21

Thank you very much for your response. I was initially refused the CAS by the institution to which I applied due to the previous Canada student visa refusals, but after the submission of my GCMS Notes, the institution reversed the decision and has decided to issue the CAS, which I have not yet received.

I have not yet completed the biometrics.

When you call them, don't mention you got a delay email ( I don't think what you got was a NSF) that's a delay email but don't mention it to them. Just tell them your biometrics was on the 16th and you haven't gotten a reply that you want to escalate it.
Re: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 9 by Midoskibal: 3:30pm On Aug 27, 2025
Hey guys, I want to apply to Wrexham University, asides the fact that their tuition is affordable, they also offer advanced practice for my program. The issue (not sure it's an issue yet anyways) now is they are a really low ranked university. My question is will it matter when trying to get jobs?
I'm just spitballing but maybe employers would have reservations about giving jobs (skilled worker's visa) to graduates from such universities??...
Then also, I'll appreciate any other review about the university
