Good day house, my pre CAS interview was scheduled for 12th of may with the mail stating my zoom link will be sent few minutes before the scheduled time unfortunately the link wasn't sent and the interview wasn't conducted, I've mailed the school but hasn't replied, I'm worried, what could be the reason.

Did you check your spam/junk?

bukit05:
You will not re - apply. Have you done pre- cas interview?
There are jobs in Leeds than Bradford. But Bradford is close to Leeds.

Biko, could you help with this question?

Is it advisable to pay tuition deposit once received unconditional offer or wait till after Pre CAS interview?

University of Wolverhampton thou, that sch seems to have received an overwhelming application, hence my fear.

We just got unconditional offer late April for September intake, meanwhile we applied for May intake but was deferred to sept.

and have mailed them like 3 times to schedule pre CAS interview but they said we should wait as they were working on doing that this month

My fear is, time dey go bro
And I heard some people had even made deposit while still on conditional offer oo

Any possibility for sept intake? Or make we just zero mind and put trust for January?

To make matters worse, their Nigeria Representative is not even responding to calls, chat or mail.

The guys sef too dull for my liking

This is a bit misleading.

You are not allowed to switch from your student visa to a work visa until you have completed your academic program. Most student visas expire about 4- 6 months after the end of the academic program.

Substantially most students will have to transition to the graduate visa as 4-6 months after studies is quite a short time to land a graduate-level job offering sponsorship. Yes, some may get lucky, but most will require more time.

Hence, a reduction in the graduate visa duration will substantially affect the prospects of those hoping to get a job after studies.

To put things in perspective, about 40% of asylum claims for people with visa comes from those who held a student visa but could not transition to a work visa.

For a year MSc Program

You literally get a 2years visa

1year for study and 1 year post study that's 2 year's


For a 2 years MSc/MRes programs

You get a 3years visa

2years for your study and 1 year post study that's 3years

So literally you still have a whole post study to get a job and switch.

My only concern for now, is if the UK finally say, that student visa holders should not be allowed to switch visa.

Then that will be a big program.

Now just like I explained, as you begin to approach the expiration of your students visa, you can then apply for a graduate visa.

While most people don't go for the graduate visa and choose to seek asylum is because you'd also need to pay IHs and that's huge also for 2years...

When you apply for a Graduate visa, you’ll need to:

pay the £880 application fee
pay the healthcare surcharge - this is usually £1,035 for each year you’ll be in the UK

Below link is for IHS fee for Graduate Visa

https://www.gov.uk/graduate-visa/how-much-it-costs


This is for Student Visa Ihs

https://www.gov.uk/healthcare-immigration-application/how-much-pay


So our people literally look for a short cut with less financial commitments to beat the system,



Thanks bro
We are learning sha

Fred2020:
- Immigration surcharge is increasing by over 30%, potentially deterring employers from taking in international candidates
- They are contemplating reducing the post-study period by 6 months. Less time to find a job
- Int'l graduates to be restricted from jobs with requirements below the graduate qualification..so jobs like care and possibly some social care roles are off the table.
- Minimum salary requirements are expected to increase further above the average UK wage
- Employers must show strong evidence they tried to recruit locally and invested in training before they can take on Int'l graduates

The general direction is to make it harder for int'l students to stay after their studies......in other words, they want your tuition money but will prefer you leave after your studies.

Bro, people should understand that the Graduate Visa is different from the student Visa. The graduate visa is what the UKVI policy is referring to, as being reduced from 24months (2yrs) to 18months (1y 6month)

A Graduate visa can only be applied for after completing an educational program in the UK, Its a means that afford people who have just completed their study in the UK and are yet to get a skilled visa and are nearing the expiration of their student visa to stay behind in the uk for up to 2year - 3years depending on your course of program,

Also note that the Graduate visa can not be renewed or extended, but holders can switch to another visa category.

So, literally it doesnt affects potential applicants.

Where it may affect potential MSc or MRes applicant is if after your initial 2years student visa in the UK, You stil have not gotten a work sponsorship, then it means, your chances of staying beyond in the UK for another 2years while you search for job sponsorship has been reduced to 1year and 6months,


Thanks for the update thou.

Hello Everyone,
Please can someone recommend a place I can get like a loan of 5m ASAP for Visa and IHS. I'm kinda in a tight corner at the moment as Bolton hasn't refunded my tuition deposit and I already have my CAS from Wolverhampton. I tried some loan companies in naija but none as I have a current loan running.

My dear sirs/ma

Kindly help with this few questions.
Thanks in advance.

Any Wolverhampton applicants with an unconditional offer here? Or a current MSc/MRes Student?

Is there any WhatsApp group for sept applicants?

Also, Do one needs to pay initial tuition deposit immediately after receiving an unconditional offer, or wait till after Pre CAS interview?

Cos upon checking my application status, I saw that it has an update, and it states the I am required to pay the deposit.

Meanwhile, in my unconditional offer letter received, they included that upon passing the Pre CAS interview, then a deposit is required to be made.

Unconditional offer came in late April, and till date I have mailed them requesting to be scheduled for interview, but the said they are working on it for this month, on both instances when I emailed them.

So, the two are saying different things, Application status is saying you have an unconditional offer and as part of your requirements to move to the next stage, you are required to pay the deposit to proceed to your enrollment.

While Unconditional offer letter is saying, upon passing pre CAS interview, a deposit is required to be made.

Biko help me make sense of this .

And for all others too, do you normally proceed to make deposit payments after receiving an unconditional offer or you wait for your successful interview results?

January or May Current students, please help o, how did you go about it during your own process?

Thanks

Mine is york campus o. The living expenses for York is £9224. So it's lesser thank London which is about 11 or 12k.

Check bro, they have both London and York campus.

Rents in York is expensive but not as expensive as London, so people live in surround towns. The bubbling place for job mostly in that area is Leeds which is about 40mins drive to the school and rent in those areas for one room shared apartment is between £450 and above.


I don pay my tuition deposit sha, so na to dey wait for CAS like this like this so. God go run am for us

Success bro
Thanks for the information

Bigyed:
I think CAS is limited for Mres o. Mine is Mres Education. Maybe you should start eying January intake. For the group chat I am, people have started inquiring about January. Just mail the school so they can assign you to an agent or better still, check on their portal and select the agent you want to work with. Na dem go fit answer you wella brotherly.

My brother the journey no easy o but we go achieve am Las Las.

Thanks bro,
How far London expenses?
Trust you are preparing for that?

I just returned from the school website now, read thru all their MREs course.

But the location is my fear oo
The school has a very attractive tution fee for international students oo £11k

That's something very fair,
How far with sch accommodation?
Modality for payment too?
Any instalment?

Who has paid Visa and IHS recently, please how much total amount in £ or $ for 1yr course?

I think it's £776 per year for students,

https://www.gov.uk/healthcare-immigration-application/how-much-pay

Perhaps someone who made payment recently can also help us confirm

Hmmm

Nothing annoys me more than calling this people bandits..

They are terrorists simply put
Nigeria government needs to treat them as terrorists and not bandits.

They are simply enemies of the federation.

Hello ouse..please help me out with these
I got an intent of offer from university of herefordshire on 29/4/ that they will send me offer letter later but my agent called this morning saying they sent an invoice to him that we should pay school deposit soon.
My concern is now is it possible for the school to contact the agent only without sending me mail with student id cos from the first mail they said they will send me student id which I will use for payment..
Secondly the date on the invoice sent is 15/4/25 of which we haven't apply then..
Please anyone one that have experience this or who is in Hertfordshire should please enlightened me on the payment process

I think it might be a plot to scam you.
You applied 29/4
And invoice of 15/4 was sent to you despite not yet having an official offer from the school.

Well, Please contact the school directly via your email. As far as am concerned, they can't contact your agent, it you directly via email. In fact they don't even have a portal access for MRes applicant sef.

So please contact them asap.

Hi Everyone,
This the 3rd time they will be rejecting my mom's visa , I can't take it anymore I'm tired already. At this junction I don't care how much it will cost me I just need someone that can handle this application for me and treat all this refusal issues. I really do want her to come visit UK even if na once
If there's anybody here that is a pro in handling this kind of situation please let me know. I'm ready to pay for the service.
Find the 3rd refusal reason below. I didn't inflate my UK bank statement, it was just my salary entering my account and my weekly extra shift salary

Bro,

Sorry for all these, I think the major issue here to put some.funds in mummy's account, at least 10m to be on a safer side.

Put 10m in her account for 30days, submit both your own proof of funds and hers too.

Wish you success bro

Abdoor44:
Hello my people,

Is there anyone who knows if university of central Lancashire accept certificate of fixed deposit as proof of fund to issue their CAS. Is there anyone here who has used it to get CAS from the school and also use it to apply for visa.

Abdoor44:
I uploaded research proposal when applying. Try to upload it with your application.

Thanks bro
They responded this morning requesting to for a research proposal.

Also bro, please hope Their MRes programs are eligible for dependent?

Will work on that and upload.

Why not approach your bank bro, and perhaps explain the situation with evidence.

Things are tight every where now oo as people are using the limited resources they have to run this travel stuff.

Bro, Morning
I just submitted my application there, Did you submit a research proposal? for your MRes in Management? I didn't thou, but uploaded all other documents including personal statement.

Azeez1003:
Yes I passed my PreCas interview. I have made my tuition deposit. I can’t request for CAs because the school has not made the option for September available. They are still working on May.

Oh
Okay bro, You are half way through already.
Success bro.

Azeez1003:
I did my PreCas Interview since 19th February. I was for May Inatake but the school differed me to September

Chia
I want to believe you passed your interview? I think you shd make payment for your deposit and begin processing your CAS

I don't quite understand the school thou, I think they had an overwhelming application way beyond available CAS for May intake

Nicky222:
Please, how long did it take before u got the offer and do you know what their payment plan is like? For Msc program

Hello, how far? Have you now been scheduled for the Pre CAS Interview?

[quote author=Azeez1003 post=135155847][/quote]Have you done Pre CAS interview?

These guys are not herders..
But this is an act of terrorism,

We need to put just as it is, and stop trying to make it look less, these killing has been ongoing for weeks now same as Platue, and yet we still call them herders..

Tor

Chizbaaa:
Please could you add me to this GC? I am coming in September

THANK YOU

MSc or MRes?

Nwaokunkpara:
Instead of calling out an act of terrorism Nigeria chooses a mild words to make it look smoother and welcoming

Herdsmen attack

Bandit attack

Unknown gunmen attack

Kidnappers attack


Yet human lives and properties are lost and nothing is ever being done

God bless you sir
I have said it repeatedly, killings of people in Nigeria is simply an art of terrorism nothing less.

The idea of trying to brand it as something simpler is false, how can a/some sect of people kill around 40+ individuals and yet our government will says it's headers abi one eye name.

It's simply an act if terrorism,
To even say it's a repeated killings makes it more worreson.

It looks to me as thou we are giving this people a free hand to operate without taking any serious decisions against them, it literally makes them stronger.
