Hi Justwise and everyone here.. Great job you guys are doing. Please someone should assist me in clarifying my thoughts on this. I applied to a college in london uk (Diploma in biblical and theological studies) but they requested for score an IELTS band of 7 for my ukvi purpose. I was informed by a friend to do NARIC English Assessment (if you don’t want to write the IELTS test and you are a graduate you can go through naric route by sending them your degree certificate (must be a 4 year course and above),Transcript and a letter from your school confirming you studied there and you were taught in English during the duration of your study and they will assess and give you a English level satisfactory letter.

Pls is this accepted both by the school and uk embassy?

Thanks and God bless u

What interview. I'm not sure there is any interview involved?
Re: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 3 by justwise(m): 5:20pm On Apr 22, 2017

yes I did

Since you did that and they still requested that you write IELTS then go ahead and do that.

I'm not sure going through NARIC is the answer.

This is crazy. The bank now depends on students to make their most profit from tuition payment. I do not know how an ordinary wire transfer would cost over 10,000 naira to process. The CBN should do something about this. I think I am going to write the CBN on this. How can one pay 50k to 100k to transfer money oversea. How much does Western Union charge for same service?

. Hehehehe .....western union is worse oh......banks send money abroad on d black MKT rate plus their charges .....but wen u want to receive money, dey use CBN rate to calculate......hehehehe

The rate and charges are two different things. Banks get the money they send for students (form A) from CBN even at a profit already. The sending charge shouldn't be more than 10k. I used to be around that. Right now, they are just taking advantage of the forex scarcity to inflict more pains

Why not ask your admission or international department of your school this question? They would be in the best position to give you the right answer.

School requirements from schooo to school varies. Some accept NARIC, some schools dong even ask for IELTS depending on so many factors. Ask your school directly.

This is what the school sent to me:
As an overseas student, please see below information regarding visas and English language tests:

Go to the government website https://www.gov.uk/tier-4-general-visa about student visas and read the information there. To study in the UK you will need to prove you have sufficient finance to cover your course fees, accommodation and living expenses. You will also need to pass an English Test. We ask that applicants obtain a 7.0 in IELTS. You will need to take this at an secure approved centre in your own country. This information is on the above Tier 4 website. As a college we are able to provide Tier 4 visa’s subject to relevant UKVI checks.
NB Dependents are not allowed on Tier 4 visas. Please also note, it takes at least 3 months to process a student visa, so you should apply before the end of June 2017.


on website https://www.gov.uk/tier-4-general-visa I found this:
3. Knowledge of English
You may need to prove your knowledge of the English language when you apply.

You can prove your knowledge of English by either:

passing an approved English language test with at least CEFR level B1 in reading, writing, speaking and listening
having an academic qualification that was taught in English and is recognised by UK NARIC as being equivalent to a UK bachelor’s degree, master’s degree or PhD
You may be able to meet the English language requirement in other ways or need a higher level of English in some circumstances. Check the full visa guidance for detailed information.

Yes it is accepted but I suggest you inform your school that it is NARIC you will be using cos your school has to validate and accept it.
