It’s already been well-discussed, but it’s worth repeating: plan carefully for what comes after your studies before choosing the UK as your destination.

The UK of today is not the UK of five years ago. Opportunities for new migrants have shifted dramatically.

Major headlines on key news outlets today are highlighting the sharp rise in international students seeking asylum as a way to overstay their visas, which has now become a major focus for the government.

Not worth it spending 15-20M to become an asylum seeker in the UK in my opinion.

Congratulations 🎉
Sorry, do visa application required SOP?
Thanks. I think SOP is a choice

But sometimes, it helps one to avoid interview.

Good day people of God.
I'm got admitted into York Saint John University. MBA healthcare management.
I'm traveling to the UK this September and I'd like to make enquiries from a previous or current student of that field or of the school.
Someone who resides there presently.

Thanks guys.

Re: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 9 by Kaykaychizzy: 10:14am On Sep 03, 2025
Good morning everyone. I arrived in the UK yesterday and decided to share some experience I encountered, as I'm an advocate of sharing such experiences because it will surely help someone.

My visa application was in July 3rd and visa approved on the 21st July 2025.

I booked a flight to the UK via Royal Air Maroc which is a transit flight. i. e. From Nigeria to Morocco and to the UK.

Flight from Nigeria to Morocco was by 7am on friday to arrive Morocco by 11:30am.

We arrived Morocco by 11:28am and before we could pass through their immigration checks and all, the transit flight to the UK left a whole lot of us at their airport stranded.

We ended up staying at their airport for 3 good days without any valid reason as to why our flight left without picking us all up.

Finally, we booked a new flight as they as they kept insisting there's nothing they can do for us. Then on getting to the UK, they left some of our bags in Morocco 🤦‍♂️ after I severally asked them back in Morocco if our bags will travel with us and they said yes.

My little advice is for people to avoid this particular airline Royal Air Maroc because lots and lots of people were frustrated in their airport. Some have slept there like refugees for 5 days and more without them even doing anything to assist you even when it's their fault you missed your flight.

I wish everyone here good luck and at the end, do what works best for you. ✌️

Pls I need help.
I attempted to make a payment for a visa appointment, but the transaction wasn't executed. I tried executing the same transaction but on the page is the message "payment declined ".

There was an option to reschedule, and upon clicking on it, I was brought to the appointment date selection page. However, it still wouldn't display any dates to select from.

To make the matter worse, it's asking me to go back to the dashboard to pay this fee, and yet I couldn't access or know where or what to do next.
