If only the foreign affairs minister of nigeria can compel all these developed countries to have a physical embassy here in nigeria to ease a lot of issues we all face, australia embassy is in Pretoria, Canadian embassy is in Ghana and we call ourselves giant of Africa, I laff in Chinese. These countries shouldn't be dedicating to us but our leaders have spoilt everything, u need to see the way these countries treat us. It's really a sorry case. For me the foreign affairs minister should have been removed long time ago. Look at the way he handled the xenophobia case in SA, Abike dabiri had to intervain because of the M of F's slow action. We all shall put tru dis by God's grace, worry less to avoid HBP, ur grant is on the way jaree.

Nah their way despite the fact they just tick refusal reason on a template form.

They are very lazy people and thats the way they behave in their country too. Even their schools too.

UK is the most efficient despite processing loads of applications year round.

Australia too is not that bad, the surge for july is crazy and i feel they are done with the processong of these applications and they are just assessing maybe the migration impact of granting the visas.

They have confirmed some bank statements and documents over a month a go and still no decision.






Hi guys,

After applying for Canadian study visa thrice, I was denied thrice. I think I'm done with them. These guys can deny for financial reasons even after paying school fees for the whole duration of the course. They probably take too much burukutu when making these decisions.

I wish to pitch my tent here. I have made some Google research on Australian schools and found out that the schools aren't cheap, I stand to be corrected tho. How long does the visa processing take and what's the average school fees there?

Kindly help

So there are actually people in Adelaide??why do people now talk of the place as a ghost town where one could barely get by...at least these ones sound like they doing ok.

We very much here in Adelaide and it ain't a ghost town for those who think it is, we often come here in our free times to nick in few messages buh mostly we busy with work and study that's why we've been lil bit quiet, just keep the messages coming and we will be sure to advice and help where necessary as much as we can. For all the awaiting grants, God speed and soonest the golden mail will drop, to the future Adelaidians welcome home to the city of churches!!!..... for the record Adelaide is amazing and peaceful

well,the schools are quite expensive just as you have read online ranging from 11,000aud to 20,000aud per semester. Talking about the duration for visa to be processed,it all depends on when u apply but the duration has been stated on the dibp site. Before now people have gotten visas within 6day and some have stayed for 90days or more.

Hi guys, I hope y'all are doing fine? I have quick question on behalf of a friend who just got admitted to a university in Australia, and I'm still waiting for my own offer for Sept intake. He just got his offer and was told to make payment of $14+AU. My question is what rate does CBN charge for form A? He asked a banker and was told #360, but on CBN website it was #305/$. So if anyone have an idea or has recently made payments through form A should please let me know at what rate. Thank You

Before i came to Australia to commence my studies, I always ask if I will be able to pay the second year tuition through savings and intensive work as i could only afford the first year fees (no thanks to our falling naira). I always wonder why nobody gave me a straightforward answer until I came here and got to know I was only asking a jamb question. Truly, its a difficult question to answer as what worked for Mr. A might not work for Mr. B.

Yes, you can get a Job to feed yourself and pay for accommodation. It's really gonna be hard if you wanna pay school fees yourself. Its actually very possible if you are the 'hustling' type. There are people doing it. But definately, you mustn't be lazy, unnecessarily choosy nor Lilly livered. You must be strong. Very strong.. Generally, i will say, if you can afford only one year tuition, take the risk. You never know what God will do.

Note that about 70% of jobs here will require you to have a car. Bring your driving licence and plan to buy a car as soon as you land. Bring lots of money to settle down(as much as possible).
By my observation so far, Aged care/disability jobs is the best for international students. But most times, one must be certified before he/She can be employed in an aged care facility, meaning you should also try as much as possible to start the course after settling down.

Yes. truly, one should enable to find schools around the cities where there are greater job opportunities. I av peeps in the cities that are changing jobs like diapers. work full everywhere.
Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and the likes.

I'm not in any of the cities I listed above. I'm in Geelong. (one hour from Melbourne). But its okay by me because apart from the low cost of living, I will grab my extra 5points when I finish my studies and start processing my PR. geelong is considered a regional area and no 5 extra points for those in big cities.

If your plan is to stay back after your studies. You must make sure you are coming to do a two-year program minimum. Also the course you are coming to study must not only be on the SOL/CSOL list, It also should be a course you think will 'stand the test of time' on the list, so you won't wake up one day and discover your course is nowhere to be found on the list.

Australia is a very beautiful place. A multicultural society. The people are very friendly. They keep smiling at you like you just won 30billion.

hope I've not written too much epistle.. Okay let me drop my pen. cheers!

This is so true. I got here recently and on the first Sunday in church, some white guys won't let me go. Just talking talking. trying to make friends. They even invited me for a dinner, which I didn't attend due to my schedule. Why I love Australia is simple.... There is hardly any racial discrimination atall. Even the whites know they are all or mostly immigrants. The real natives are the aborigines. There are even many asians here also. Its really multicultural. Irrespective of work, my brother people have their respect. There is no unnecessary worshipping of a boss or authority. Tho I ll still mention that paying fees while studying is difficult. Besides all, there is a functional system. If its your first time out of Nigeria, you will have to adapt to the too much orderliness here

Form A is #360 to $1, and 305 is just interbank

To all visa hopefuls, keep the hope alive, no one knows exactly whats causing the delay, but i know this present delay is not peculiar to Nigerians and student visas, alot of people are waiting for their skilled visa invitations that are now overdue, friends i know from UK and netherlands including a Caucasian are also waiting for their holiday visa and work visa respectively, which is overdue too...
I will advise all student visa hopeful to contact their schools and be sure of the last date they can resume and get an official response to this effect, should the day elapse before this delay is resolved, just defer to next entry and advise the DIPB immediately with the deferment..
Its too early to loose hope, Visa grant is just the beginning of the beginning and I foresee many grants falling on you guys soonest...
Keep the hope alive..
