Bradford accepts WAEC certificate as substitute for IELTS provided the English is on a credit grade and above. Just the WAEC certificate and you're good to go

oluwaseunadebay:
Good afternoon All, for those going to Bradford for January 2022 Intake, part of the condition of offer that was given to my wife is IELTS. I read in the thread that some schools take Waec or Neco as substitute. Sent a mail to Bradford to confirm this but no response yet. Can anyone please help to answer this. Thank you

Aikayval:

GCU here, I deferred till January. Do you have your CAS yet? Those ones can waste time before they issue CAS

Have you received CAS from GCU LONDON? I have a conditional offer from them. The condition states I have to submit an updated statement of purpose which I have done for almost a month now. I have mailed them several times and called them tired, no response. How do you them, do they require POF before issuing CAS, Is there any PRE-CAS interview? If for their fees that are lower , I would have followed up with other offers I had from other schools.

Patnuel2015:
Yes you have lots of options.

Thank you so much
Can you mention some too so I can add to my list

Visa Alert ✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️ Its a long read!

Its been a super long journey but God has been good and kind to me!!!

Nigeria frustrated me baje.

To collect transcript, to renew port, hmmm.

The day I went for capturing for my port renewal, I got there at 7am and at 4pm when it was my turn to capture, I was told my port was not activated, so I can't capture, I cried ehn. No be small tears that day. Captured 3 days later.

Eventually came out after 6 weeks.

Then after paying school fees through 3rd party, biggest mistake! School said they don't accept 3rd party payment, I should provide all my forefather's document before they can apply it for me, I took it to God and eventually after a month, they confirmed it and credited it to my name. I still had to make another payment through the bank.

Through all the ups and downs, I held on to God's word which says "I'll never leave you nor forsake you". And He never did!

Got ission - 23rd July
POF matured - 7th Sept
CAS issued 14th Sept
Applied 16th Sept
Bio-metrics - 17th Sept
NSF mail - 22nd Sept
Collection mail - 4th Oct

Bristol, Here I come. For all still on the journey, God will perfect it for you in Jesus name!

Hello guys, I just recieved an offer from University of Bradford for January entry. Its stated in one of the docs that "We will only issue a CAS six months prior to the start of your course as this is the earliest
that you can apply for a Student visa".I'm confused whether or not to pay the advance. January is just 4months away.

Congratulations, was your application priority?

Please I want to ask. TBVH I didn’t declare my brother as relative in the UK in Visa application, because siblings wasn’t listed as an examples in the relatives section.

But will it be possible for me to quarantine in his house ? Is it a red flag?

Pls which email address did you send your request to?

How can student work and be able to meet payment of school fees??

For Legal Guardian, there should be an adoption document or so. He should just transfer the funds to you.

Ikxim:


Thank you so much… I am an orphan so my uncle has been my sponsor so how do I use his bank statement and prove that he is my legal guardian because I saw a clause from page 1 that the person must have been my legal guardian since I was below 18 years now I am 29 years

Good Afternoon House.

This is kindly urgent!!!!.
Can i get anyone to help make payment of £220 and i will pay Namida equivalent.

I will appreciate a swift response.

Adesquare6666:




I have a question please is it okay to apply with my wife and 3 boys or I apply for my visa first then apply for my family after I’m been granted visa I don’t know how best it’s done thanks

If u 've the maintenance funds to cover all of you, Please go ahead and do it once .

Otunbatobatele:


@jyde81 how was your interview today ? Any update yet please share possible questions . Thanks

Yes I have done the online video interview. It was a grueling 47 minute session were they asked all types of questions from why there was gap between my B.SC(2008) and 2021 when I want to start my M.Sc.
Below are the questions they asked me
1) My name, DoB and school I applied for study
2) Why I wanted to study at the school and why I chose the course
3) Reasons for my two previous visa denials in 2003
4) I should spell the name of my school.....Lol
5) How studying IT ( M.SC) would enhance my career prospects.
6) What I have been doing since 2009 when I finished study till now
7) They asked whether any of my family member has visited the UK before
They asked why I am traveling with my wife
9) They asked how much the tuition fees was and how much I have paid so far
10) They asked what I will do after studies etc
11) They asked if an agent helped me to process the ission or I did it myself. They asked for the name of the agent.

Overall, I figured out that they asked me for the video interview to clarify two main things which are the gap between B.Sc and MSc and two the reasons for the prior refusals in 2003.

After the whole session the female interviewee who is obviously an Indian born woman from her accent said Good luck that they would send a mail to me later in the day which I am still expecting.

I will employ everybody here to be well grounded in the whole process because nobody knows who could be called for interview at any time. Whatever the outcome is which I believe should be positive would be posted here when a decision has been made. Thank you

Please do anyone has a sample of this adoption document?

Hello, ma’am.

“ lounge” is different from “priority.”

If you paid for priority as well, then anytime from now you should get your visa.

I believe you would need to wait for the full length of your application to elapse (5 working days for priority, 15 working days for standard, and 24 hours for super priority) before you can send a mail.

Use this link to send the mail which costs £ 2.74 GPB:

https://ukvi.mysecurepay.co.uk/Home

You will need your card to pay. Preferably a pound denominated card.

Hope this helps.
