Please bro, what’s the current proof of fund for masters program in UK

Bro

You can check with the school..

Here's a quick break down..

In your proof of funds you are expected to have the balance of your tuition fee + living expenses.

Let's say your school fee is £15,000 and initial deposit is £5000.

Also, let say living expenses is £900 per month.

So it means in your proof of funds, UKVI and the school expects you to have £10,000 (tution balance) + £8,100 (living expenses for 9month)

So what you are expected to have in your account for 30days is a total of £18,100 in Naira equivalent

ahmedio2017:
Pls I'm planning to use globus for POF for study visa is it necessary I run it for 6months or I can just put the necessary amount there and apply pls enlighten me, because I don't want to use my firstbank because of the rate.

Put the funds there, your proof of funds and leave for 30days bro.

For your CAS application and visa application, the funds must have been in your account for at least 28days.

Great people of Nairaland, Biko I need your help, I have submitted Personal statement like 3 times now and yet they kept saying I Should submit it again, Its always one issue or another. The last one I submitted I believed I have nailed it o.. only for them to message again saying "

"upload a revised personal statement with more detail on why you are interested in studying at the University or Wolverhampton, demonstrate you have done thorough research (facts and figures)."

At this junction, Am sure I need help from you guys, Course of study is MRes International Relations.

Biko someone with a successful one, biko kindly come to my aid. Just indicate or send me a direct email here for communication.

Thanks

Am beginning to think this recent US plan crash is a terror attack and perhaps they know it, but in other not to stir up fear, they decided to keep mute.

Am sure they are on top of the situation.

The plan crash are just too many recently in the US, and it's looking like those terror movies.

Dear nairalander, I need your help.
I got an admission to UK school through PGCE as a physics teacher and It has been confirmed that I am eligible to 29,000 pounds bursary which will be paid for 10 months installment by the UK government (2900 per month). Now the school that offered me a place based on the bursary reduced my initial deposit from 50% to 25% which is 4000 pounds, approximately 8m naira. The school is starting tis sept 2025 and I have to pay the deposit by May in order to process my visa. The problem now is that I don't have 8m to pay for deposit. Please if anyone knows where I can get loan based on this I will surely pay back as soon as I start collecting the bursary or any other information on how I can go through this will be appreciated. This is a golden opportunity and I don't want it pass me by.

Loan of that amount at the present time Nigeria, well I can't say sir.

Perhaps you can approach your bank, that's if you have a collateral that's worth the amount you wished to be loan.

Also, if you don't mind, can you share the sch name so some of us too can enjoy, My wife has a degree in Education (Religious Education) Perhaps we can apply for PG Teaching program also.

Also, the PG teaching program, can one go with dependant?

Thanks

TheWorldLeader:
Thank you for your response.
Already getting bored waiting

Same here

TheWorldLeader:
I mistakenly deposited before preCAS interview, over a month now and no interview…. How bad is this? Hull

I don't think its that bad, you can request a refund in case you were later not issued CAS.

I just don't understand what's happening with Wolverhampton.

No reply to mail for now, everything is silent, since they sent mail differing my admission to sept intake.

Nothing from them, I have emailed, but nothing yet. I haven't even been given an unconditional offer yet, despite all documents requested for in the conditional offer have been uploaded and they have been informed

Bolex247:
HELLO GURUS IN THE HOUSE.
I NEED AN URGENT RESPONSE!!

Please I have so many questions, I need to know.

First, Anybody in Wolverhampton, does University of Wolverhampton requires bank statements before CAS issuance after payment of deposit.

Second, is it Advisable that I use my bank statement as POF being my wife's Sponsor who is the Main Applicants. The money will be in My account so I will be her sponsor. And Also I will applying with her as a dependant. My wife is the MA and I am the dependant.

Please I a want accurate information for better results pls

I think you will be needing your POF for CAS application sir.

It's part of the requirement for CAS issuance.

Your initial deposit
TB test
And your POF.


Now regarding your second question, I think you should be able to., does your wife bear your surname in her application?

Since she already indicated that's she's married and that has been supported with a marriage certificate, I think you should be able to use your own statement to cover for both individuals.

However, you may still need to confirm with people, or better still just split the money, Put about 38m into her own account for 28days and about 15 in yours you don't really need much Proof.

Bolex247:
Please Everyone, I Applied to University of Wolverhampton for MRes may intake have been given an Offer and yet have not been Emailed yet for a pre-CAS interview. I don't know if I will still meet up cause with the pre-CAS interview I cantpay deposit and without deposit I cant be given CAS. What can I do?

Which offer where you given?
Conditional offer or an unconditional offer?

If it's an unconditional offer I think you should login your e-vision account and use the Helpcall, Select Pre-cas interview and send them a message

Emmady:
Either is fine

Thanks

Emmady:
Sure,
Bsc and transcript

My Legal guardian's statement

The work recommendations letter is it same address to the university you applied to or just normal Reference Letter? Or is it specifically addresses to UKVI?

Went through hell this past 8 weeks but this platform was a great source of information and hope.
Never liked nairaland because of the toxicity and tribalism (on political discuss) but hope and cooperation still won.

Congratulations
You mind sharing documents uploaded for your visa application?

mcsugk:
I received same email….
Funny thing is that i have already paid my initial deposit…
Guess i will wait for the September intake

Wow
People must have started that May intake like last year oo

The rate at which the slot got filled up is something else, Am suspecting those Indians and Pakistan.

Well, we move on sept.

I think it's majorly course related, People going for International relations seems higher than those going for Public health.

Anyone here received an email that their admission to Wolverhampton has been deferred to September intake by the school admissions unit??

I want to confirm I am not the only one.
We were given an offer for may intake in February, but suddenly, we received an email yesterday saying our admission offer has changed and has been deferred to September intake.

9wkgb:
Hi, my guess... either Wolverhampton or UCLan.

I got same which made me go with another school that already gave me an unconditional offer. The speed at which the slots are being occupied?!

Preparations for September intake starts immediately after May so no big deal as it's almost here.

Yes bro, it's Wolverhampton o
Could you kindly DM the other sch you tried theirs? Perhaps I can as well..

You can DM va email

Sup people..
I have May 2025 intake MRes International relations.
Started admission process abit late though (7th Feb 2025)

Was given a conditional offer on 14th Feb.

Uploaded all requested documents on 18th Feb

Got another email requesting for two more documents on 21st Feb.

Uploaded them on 23rd Feb.

Received an email today, 26th Feb that my May intake admission has been deferred to Sept 2025 intake because their admission for May is filled.

Anyone received same email?
And what's next?
Still yet to receive an unconditional offer thou.

Lol

I am seeing the comments here very funny, like how many women put there aren't even circumcises?

Like seriously, especially in Nigeria, tell me the percentage?

It's an obvious fact that about 70% of our ladies are.
So why are you people making a fuse out of this?

If you gather 10 ladies in your street or university, maybe just 1 of them isn't circumcises..

So why are we just claiming woke now?

Bro go ahead with your relationship, I don't have any issues with it.

I can only be concerned if she recently just have it done. Otherwise, bros relax

Quite unfortunate that many people here don't follow up with what's happening around the world.

Sometimes last week, Al-Jazeera ired on its channel a series documentary on how France came in some part of Africa during WWII and decided to take over the country as one of his.

It committed series of war crime amongst others..

Tunisia, Algeria and some part of the Asian country..
And even installed their own ruler in Cameron and a few other African countries.

Now the question is..
Why did Al-Jazeera aired such at a time like this?
And why are these nations suddenly waking up to say hey, we don't want french again..

Am not surprised these nations are kicking against the french, I think some of these documentary is kinda bad, bringing back some long forgotten pains...

It's a new age and time now, we all should learn to move on.

If we are priv to some of the abominables done by even our own fore father's we would be amazed.

Silentgroper:
you need to see how shocked I was going through the comments ..


Something wey don tey .. even for the infinix brand ...


😕😕😕

E shock me too bro

It's been around for more than a decade o

blacksam01:
So what is the essence in of the VAT jack up from 7.5% to 15%...? Also what is the need for tax ID for current account holders, if not to tax the account..?

I think these government officials think we are stupid oo

Like seriously how do you increase vat everywhere and say the reform isn't to increase tax but boost economy?

Like seriously so they think we are daft?

Chia

This feature has been on most android phones for long just that most users don't know

I recalled far back 2015 or so one infinx note I used had that too.

That's like 10years ago

BoldBrainz:
This is how they'll sweet-talk the innocent masses, then when the bill is passed, implementation will trickle down to even POS operators and roadside vendors.

Very cruel and irresponsible generation of Politicians!

This man gets it
That's the trick bro, sadly, no one is exempted in reality. That's just the truth.

1m income annually, that's like earnings 83k monthly.

So if you earn 83k monthly, you are rich and not categorised as the poor that should be exempted, so you go pay income tax..

In fact, 70% of the POS vendors would have to pay the income tax

However, in the real sense in today's Nigeria, anyone earning below 150k should be considered poor considering the very high cost of basic commodity like food stuffs not to mention transport.

I just weak.

But annoyingly, the govt would use the narrative of exempting the poor masses as a public stunt to win the very gullible ones.

I said it, I don't trust this people..

I don't trust this..

It appears Nigerians forget in a hurry..

How far with Nigeria air?? That was hurriedly commissioned by Buhari govt?

How far with the rice pyramid??

Again I say, I don't trust this.
It looks like a means of just getting back at Dangote or something something seems fishy.

Well, time will tell

CivilianJTF:
Not conversion. Cost per scm. It's 330naira at GRA ikeja

I knew it that this CNG is another scam, just wait a little more, in coming months the price may jump to #500/scm

BrosG007:
In my past articles, I did an analysis of value derived from converting your vehicle to LPG.

A lot of people pointed out that the government incentive is based on CNG, not LPG. So, ....today, we will be taking a closer look at the CNG option as prescribed in recent government policies. There is still a lot of confusion about it - this analysis will attempt to establish clarity in grey areas and also demonstrate, using available information and data, the viability and feasibility of this new policy. So, without further ado, here we go:

Unlike LPG which is Propane/Butane, CNG means Compressed Natural Gas and is mainly comprised of a composition made of Methane. To make this analysis easy to understand, we will use Petrol as the yardstick and basis of comparison, since petrol is a well understood quantum. We are going to look at four areas of impact.


1) Comparative Cost

2) Availability / Access

3) Investment Required + ROI

4) Practicality

1) Comparative Cost
To eliminate the comparative differences in energy efficiency and varying units of measurement in fuel types, I have decided to approach this from the perspective of energy density. This approach allows an equitable and constant value returned regardless of what type of fuel is addressed. The standard unit of measuring energy density across board is the "Megajoule" (MJ).


Price of Petrol = N925 / Litre

Price of CNG = N230 / scm

Energy in 1 scm of CNG = 40MJ

Energy in 1 Litre of petrol = 34.2MJ


From the above data, we can deduce the following:

1 scm (cubic metre) of CNG = 1.169 litres of petrol

Therefore, using a typical example of a full tank (60 Litres):

- With Petrol; 60L of fuel will cost N55,500 (@ N925/L)

- With CNG; Equivalent energy amount will require 60/1.169 = 51.33 scm of CNG. Approximate it to 52 scm of CNG. Therefore 52 scm of CNG will cost N11,960 (@ N230/scm).

CNG presents excellent value. As far as cost goes, there is no comparison. CNG will save you over N43,000 every time you fill up your tank! This is a very significant amount that needs no further pontification.

2) Availability or Access to Fuel Type
NIPCO is the strategic partner of FGN in the retail of CNG. Presently, Benin city in Edo state can be considered the CNG capital of Nigeria. Benin city was used as NIPCO test pilot for the CNG program and as such, Edo has 15 CNG filling stations spread all over the cities. Attempts are being made to expand similar service to Lagos, however to the best of my knowledge, right now Lagos only has 6 filling stations with the biggest one being located in Ibafo (along Lagos-Ibadan expressway). Abuja also has 6 new filling stations. Ibadan in Oyo state has one filling station. The rest of the nation will have to wait until such a time as Tinubu remembers them! I discovered the one serving Lekki peninsula is in Awoyaya - 40 minutes drive for me! As far as accessibility, I will give it a "E" mark at this point. Nevertheless, there is hope things will keep improving. Truth is, except for those within close proximity to these filling stations and those living in Benin city, CNG is not yet a viable alternative.

3) Required Investment + ROI
I have called up to six different installers spanning across three states. The quoted cost of installation varies wildly. I have had quotes as high as >>> CONTINUE READING 👇

You people should stop this analysis..

How much was a liter of fuel sold for before all this brouhaha?

Was it not around #160/l?

If we're buying today at #160/l who would be thinking CNG?

All this just to make us feel like we have a better option is a scam.

Soon, when we have enough people on CNG, I can bet it with you, another government would come, and tell us they have also been paying Subsidy on CNG and so therefore they can no longer again.

I read sometimes ago, that a litter of kerosene now sells above #2000/l like seriously who do us in Nigeria.

A kg of LPG gas now is also around #1300/kg

Like seriously this country is tiring..

Etosha:
C/ River...

Another question is, is he from the said state or community?

Because people can hate what's not from them that's doing well, most Nigerians can be wicked oo, he might wake up one morning only to discover they have burnt down his sch.

I suggest he shd see the community heads to resolve things and pay community rites and co.

No go drag things with people you are not from their place oo

Samguine:
My brother, I am tired. I will ignore him from now on. The dollar is 1700 and the national grid has collapsed. But according to him, everything is good. I won't answer him again.

Pls do, you can imagine his reply to my post nau.

Haba, he's busy about just himself, 1 out of hundreds million people

Haba nau

galserv:
@bolded I am somewhere in the north and I bought 15 tubers of yam for 8k. It will take my family of 5 for one month by God's grace.
People earning so poorly are making far more by other means.

Stop buying things at expensive places. Be smart. Seek out where you can get better deals and stop whining like a...

Also, get side hustles to assist. Nobody relies solely on salary in Nigeria. My boss earning over 30m annually still has a side hustle.

Pls get out sir.
So you are saying I need to drive down to the north despite residing in South wise to buy 15tubers of Yam?

Pls nau, spare us this I and yourself alone syndrome pls spare us, the entire population of Nigeria is much more than yourself.

You are just 1 out of several hundred of millions

Can we have a full link to his speech, he was about saying he ran into some very difficult government officials before the video ended.

So it's true that if you want to add value to this country, some government officials will still try to frustrate your efforts just as they did Dangote Refinery..

Wow

Samguine:
The reality of the average Nigerian is theory? Lol.

I was in Nigeria as early as last year. See, it is not theory. I experienced it. The suffering of Nigerians is not theory. It is real. Spaghetti is over 1k. ONE PACK OF SPAGHETTI IS OVER 1K. Does that make sense to you? Are you happy buying spaghetti for over 1k? A bag of rice is over 100k. ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND FOR A BAG OF RICE. Is that fine by you?

Those Superstores you casually dismissed as a non-Nigerian thing, have Nigerians working in/with them as cashiers, securities, distributors, suppliers, attendants, and managers. Real Nigerians without the privileges you enjoy, have had their means of livelihood truncated because of how bad the economy is. But because it does not affect you, everything is fine.

Yam, indeed, is cheaper here than it is in Nigeria, even though the UK does not grow yams. I know you cannot wrap your head around it. And that's okay.

You say Nigeria is better than the UK. See, you are right o. No need to convince you again.

Hello, pls could you kindly stop replying him pls.

Where in Nigeria does 15tubers of Yam sells for 8k? Abi which way nau..

I don't understand this guy again o, ..is it that he's deliberately doing this or what?


Haba nau

SE the Nigeria we gather dey so?
Pls just kindly ignore him.

A crate of egg is #5100 last in Akure and some places more .

Baby food are no go area, even medicine (drugs) are something else..

And he said Nigerians now have side hustle?? Like seriously?? How many Nigerian have side hustle?

Haba nau

A Congo of Nigeria rice in akure is #3350 while that of beans is #3500, ahhh

Gari is around #1300,

abi does he not know what is saying ni..

A 150k income now in today's Nigeria can't feed a family of 4, father mother and 2 kids..

School fee is something else, and yet you are still defending this government and telling us that all is well in Nigeria.

Nigeria where some people are still being paid #25k per month, I meant even a larger percentage of the population earns below 70k a month..

ClitRaider:
That's over N70m to escape to UK?!
I need to have a re-think.

Things weren't this bad a year and half ago before Tinubu came in

As at Buhari era, that 12kpounds was around 12m or so, I recalled I exchange pounds for #800/£

Now everything don scatter
