Congratulations.
Please what did you explain for your gap year, as I have about 6 doing Private business.

LaaJiblik:


Actually, the guidelines expects evidence of your Dependant’s maintenance funds IN ADDITION to evidence of your own funds.

If you have funds in YOUR own account too, that’s fine. Submit your own bank statement as well.

40 long minutes? Jesu! Mine was barely 7 minutes.

I told them I went for my nysc which was for a year and I enrolled for some programs (I was asked what the programmes were and I mentioned what they were). You were not idle during that 6yr period... soo just explain to them you did this and that. Dont go into too much details if you are not asked. Be brief but dont leave out important details. And your composure as you answer the questions is also important (i may be wrong on this) but u dont want to be fridgeting.

olumzy1993:


Actually.... The problem is that i dont have the funds anymore...
Should she apply or she should not?

Dominic147:
A friend of mine studying in the uk told me yesterday that the uuk (universities uk) has already filed a petition which will soon be signed by the uk govt about the retroduction of the 2 years post study visa. And i have also read about it myself! This is goodnews guys please if u are in the uk please sign and share the petition.

justwise:


That section is incorrect.


Bytheway universities have finally woke up from their slumber to do what they should have done 5yrs ago.

Can’t seem to find it after using several search engines.
Thanks

davide470:
So, i did my biometrics today. Paid for Priority application. No interview.

My program is taking place in London and Paris to which i have a French Visa already, so i hope UK won't give me any issues.

Fingers crossed!

eljaye:
For those of you who have got your visa and are travelling very soon, please take these along amongst your other useful stuff:

1. Thick sweaters and cardigans

2. Thick jeans

3. Good portable umbrella

4. Portable heater (if you have already) this is particularly relevant for those staying in shared apartments, as you don't want to run the bills because you are just heating your room.

5. Adaptor and extension wire box

6. Your favourite african meals

7. Aboniki or robb

8. Slippers or Flip Flop

9. Plenty socks

10. Your favourite movies (boredom overload)

11. Powdered milk and milo

12. Vaseline or lotion

If you forget anthing, know that whenever you decide to buy it at the stores in the UK, please don't convert to naija currency, because you will be terribly bitter.

Don't be overly excited, pack the relevant and necessary stuff!

Anyways, safe trip folks and good luck in your studies.

Zoey1:
Please is it still possible to carry powdered milk? or any kind of milk is banned?

Good day everyone,

How can I authorize someone to pick my passport on my behalf after the decision has been made.

What is the process like?

Thanks.
