Have you got your visa ?

Chibabe4Christ:
Since the applications goes to Abuja.. Is it not better to apply to Abuja direct?

Not true. I applied on a Monday and mine got to Abuja on Tuesday.

congrats bro!!
nice were you able to track it on either vfs or ups and when did you receive your visa

Ghost911:


Mine is 3rd July and I arrived Dublin yesterday...

Guys I need your candid advice.

As I wait for my visa, my school programme coordinator(s) refused my plea and wouldn't grant me an extension. I'm asked to report for classes starting Tomorrow by 9am or Else defer my place to next year if I can't make it.

Wetin I go do now My head dey boil!!! Submitted on August 5th in Abuja

This is sad. I just don't undertand what happened to Ireland embassy this time around. Last year was better than this. I think you should plead with ur school's international office and explain the visa situation to them. You are not the only person that is being delayed by the embassy. The school should understand the delay.

If ur school doesn't extend ur resumption date, then you have to defer the admission. May it end well in ur favour.

It's not in the International Office hands But the coordinators of the Master's programme who are saying ...."they don't permit Late Commencement for the programme ...as it is very intensive. I have pleaded with them and try to get them to understand the visa situation currently in Nigeria Eire Embassy. I even asked for a week (Sept 17th) in our last series of conversations But they wouldn't budge. I don lose weight finish

that's messed up. i think you should email the school's student union and also the international office. when this happened to me I was made to confirm responsibility for whatever my grades turn out to be in exchange for a one-week extension. assure them that it will in no way hinder your ability to catch up as you are a super-fast learner. just ginger them a little. I hope it works out well for you.

You are all getting your visa this week hopefully just prepare to fly the next day once it shows I am sure u will catch up with classes but if you feel u can't, get in here first with the visa then defer it while here and not in naija cos u never know how tight visa issuance will be next year

What school?

I applied 30th of July but the embassy said they didn’t get it till 3rd of August so to call them next week to follow up.

Hello vkyburnz,

My 1cent opinion and suggestions:

If your school refused to give you an extension letter ,you can defer your program to January start date if there is. Then forward the letter to the embassy informing them before a decision is made on your application. .

Alternatively, you can wait until you get feedback from the embassy and you might be lucky to have your visa approved. But before you get feedback from the embassy, find out schools transfer policy in Ireland and if your school allows student to transfer to another university/institute within Ireland. If they do, look for a school that has the course of your choice and ask for the process and inform them that you are about to transfer . Confirm their latest September 2019 start date.

And if there is no option of transfer and no January intake in your current school and you can't wait until next September intake, you can
apply to other schools that has January intake and ask for refund of your fees already paid in your school.( but wait until you get feedback from the embassy )



Lol@ your head de boil. If only you know wetin others de go through.

Anyways, good luck.

Regards,

Louis.
