This thread has been been helpful and blessed with many selfless and generous individuals.

My study permit was approved today after 11 months. It has not been easy managing that. Thanks to God and also appreciate the effort of Dr @samtol for his swift intervention at the school. much grateful sir.

The Visa was issued the very day my school confirmed my admission. In essence, if you are having issue with visa try sort things out at your schools.

Embassy doesn't deliberately delay pass 6 to 8 weeks. If it is beyond then you can reach out to school.

The recent emails of staff at the embassy is attached if in case you need the emails.

Glory be to God sir

pufframmy:

Ibukune:
Pls guys.. I'm having issues with my SAQA Evaluation, SAQA said they contacted my institution for verification but I was told by my institution that no such mail from SAQA.
pls what could be wrong and had anyone experience same issue before?

Saqa should inform you the dates and email they sent message to, with this you can approach your school.

tataiwo09:
If you have both from same school...do only msc

But if they were from different school...kindly do both...

Msc only is okay irrespective of the schools attended

DanIduh06:
The range.
For Masters, will 1 million be ok for a year?.
Since there is no tuition (UKZN).

Thanks

,1million will be okay.accommodation for the whole will be around 500k naira or more depending on the facilities.2cost of Feeding will depend on your eating patterns. If you love eateries you are likely to spend more .

DanIduh06:
Thank you.
You have idea of how much one should budget for;
masters by research or
PhD.
Regards


W

budget in terms of food and accommodation? Accommodation depends on location. The safer a place the higher the cost . Budget in what perspective?

shegsrules:
What are the procedures or guide (start to finish) for application for a PHD in SA with visa procedures inclusive . Heard KwaZulu-Natal university is a good University and not so expensive. Thanks

PhD program is free tuition at UKZN. Masters by research also free . First contact potential supervisor while you submit your saqa evaluation

Peero4Christ:
Hi,
Pls, how did you get the SAQA?

Go to the saqa website and apply . Then pay the required amount .

SammyJezz:
I got admitted into University of Capetown (MSc) for 2021 study, I wish to know if the medical Insurance must be paid for before Visa s given or one can submit a proof (Like a proforma invoice) like in the case of momentum. Because should incase you don't get the visa will you be refunded?

Congratulations! You must have medical aid before visa application can be done . Yes if there is rejection ,you apply for refund

9africa:
You become an illegal immigrant after your visa expires,but I think it’s possible to switch to a spousal visa over there with a visit visa am not so sure try and confirm

Possible but extremely difficult process.

DanIduh06:
Good day everyone.
Can someone be kind enough to enlighten us on the choice of province and university to make.

In the light of Xenophobia.
Cost of living and opportunities that may exist.

I heard PhD students don't pay tuition at University of Kwazulu-natal ( are there hidden charges to cover this?).

Some of us are interested in postgraduate studies there.

Regards.

PhD and master by research do not pay tuition fees at UKZN. There is no hidden fees

hayzed89:
Good morning, is there any less or cheap University in SA for MBA student in safe region let's say BTW 100k to 400k per annum . Thanks

MBA is very expensive ! Maybe you should raise your budget to 500k upward �

Mercydecy:
Hello everyone, please do i need toefl or ietls for msc in south Africa?

Both are not needed for your admission process, However ,some schools do request ietls for admission process. Just draft a simple letter and state clearly that your undergraduate program was taught in English .

Kobojunkie:
Obviously, she is not wasting her time because as you can see from the OP, she is getting her way.

" getting her way " Winning converts or waiting for Olukoya to reply her ? Dr Olukoya is too busy to waste time on bloggers ! The same way governor Gbenga Daniels threatened MFM years back because of land , but Where is he today ? He came apologizing! His political career ended . There are people you don't lie against ,if you do heaven will fight for them .

tataiwo09:
Not yet bro. We need to know if they have started issuance of student visa since they resumed.

I don't know how they want to do all there considerations and confirmation.

Imagine, your brother applied in February and paid for insurance, submitted bank statements, medical clearance etc. Can all those things be still valid weright now? Though the insurance still valid for let's say 4 months.

Inform the medical insurance company about the situation! They wil update your payment since you are not in SA .

Danniedpastor:
And Jesus asked Peter to feed His sheep.

Don't argue unnecessarily

Ignore him sir ! There are people born with argumentative spirit

Missyajoke:
The woman wants to use the pastor to gain attention.

well said ! Not only her this is the current trends now ! unfortunately she is wasting her time

Lukaku12:
About 4million naira....for masters...that’s what I have currently

It is okay j

Good idea . Migration is not always an easy ride for Africans especially Nigerians , however study route remains the easier way to travel . .First ,Map out the countries you can study and work . Second ,consider the cost . 3.Apply for scholarships ,although scholarships are competitive but it is possible 4. Join different research networks in your field of study while you are still in Nigeria . 5 Enhance your CV through volunteering and community engagement . Above all pray and ask questions

dlaw70:
75 % of crimes in SA is committed by Nigerians.

This is the truth that all of us back home don't want to agree with.


Time to accept our fault ,reform and be better people.


For a people to respect u,u ought to give them same first hence, reciprocal.

This is highly fallacious and callous lies . 75percent of crime .... Every hour a woman is raped in SA . Raped by South African. What is the population of Nigerians in SA for 75percent crime to be committed by Nigerians ..... The daily killing of white farmers done by who .... Please be careful with what you post on social media . Most crimes are committed by black South Africans because they are the most populated .Likewise Highest number of crime in Nigeria are committed by Nigerians because they are the most populated . Be factual with your comments . Shalom

mechoau:

My story different sha, though it must be because I am not abroad.
Before he travelled we buy ourselves gift on our birthdays can be as little as you can afford. Fast forward to days or months he arrived the US comes his birthday so I created an amazon account gave him and told him to pick anything of his choice. I paid for them.
You won't believe the guy went back to order things. He claimed it was a mistake I couldn't get a refund till date he later blocked me on all social mediums when I texted him.
Not everybody wants their money I just want to have a genuine relationship with them.

You have a good heart . May the right people locate you

mechoau:
Pls sir, do you have idea how I can go through my SAQA evaluation? Pls any help from you would be appreciated

Fill the form online ,make payment and send your docs to them .

Waste of tax money

Oga why travel to Ghana ? Just summon the Ghanian ambassador in Nigeria for explanation and if explanations are not satisfactory you withdraw Nigerian ambassador in Ghana . You will collect allowances in dollars hence you must travel . Going to Ghana shows that Nigerian foreign policy is dead .

uvie66:
What is tribalistic here, 99% of the traders in these markets are Ibos, because they will never rent a shop to another tribe. Have you ever seen a Yoruba Man, aboki, or Calabar Man selling in these places ?

Bros am not Igbo but the truth of the matter is that what stopped other tribes from renting shops in Alaba ? Is there any law that prevent Yoruba ,Aboki and Calabar guys from selling in Alaba market ? Don't forget that these shops were owned by Yoruba people .How come Igbo guys now prevent other tribes ? We need to be objective when we comment on national issues . The bitter truth is that the Igbo peoples have mastered the art of business and it is difficult to compete with them in certain line of business .All tribes in Nigeria have good and bad peoples ,hence the guy who cheated this guy is not a good Igbo man . I know many honest Igbo men in business

krumking:
Guys, I already got admission to university of cape Town.. The program starts in January yet I heard VFS is not open
What do I do?

Congratulations Embassy will be open before January . Universities are negotiating with government .More importantly , No universities will resume academic activities in January .

A government that release terrorists and killed innocent IPOB youths is not fit to deliberate on any issue concerning the church . A government that turn blind eye when innocent youths are killed in Enugu , suddenly want to regulate and control churches . A government that failed in all sectors suddenly want to stabilized accountability in church ? Can you point to one thing this government has done for Nigerians ? Billions of dollars stolen every year yet ordinary electricity we can boast of .Do you think if these big churches were run the way this government run thing they will be big today ? Show me any government in the world that release terrorists and kill innocent youths ?

All because we don't have a president . If Obasanjo was in power will Ghana try this ?
