lululiscious:
Good afternoon all. Please I'll like to confirm. With the extended ASUU strike, how can we go about collection of transcript. My agent said it's compulsory for visa application. But when I emailed the school, they said I could use only my original certificate. But the agent is still insisting that I get the transcript. Please I'll like to know is there anyone that has applied for visa with only original certificate and not transcript? Did it cause any issues? Please help me. Thank you.

so a whole degree holder is taking the words of agent over what the itting school is saying? The docs which you submitted to the Uni to gain ission are just fine for visa application.

The bank doesn’t need your consent to confirm your bank statement to the embassy.

We just av problem in this country, we are trying to put a topic straight. We av seen that UKVi sometimes needs consent from the bank and we av as well seen that d banks most times don't gv consent to third party. It is a subject for verication nothing more. This wud help some people and if it wud not help u then ignore

angel4sure:
Good morning my people and to all gurus in the house. Happy new week. Pls ooo my school deposit is £1000, which conversion rate do I use so I know how much to pay in Naira. Thank you

Just use flutterwave with your debit card which will be higher, the rate will be shown before you are debited. Or you can use the Form A processing via UBA or GTB which may take sometime tho. Btw, which school is this ?

ZiggyMr:


Check other schools dont let them delay you, except you applied to only Hertfordshire.

That's my decision.

Gloriyah:


Did you read the question I replied to?
I don’t know what their policy is but using a pension savings is allowed that’s what is written on Uk gov website.

Yes I read it and read where it says you must have immediate access?!
Also did you read where it mentioned “funds that cannot be used”?! Pension is there too.

You can’t access pension funds “easily” in Nigeria. So it’s a No!

WES For what? Maybe youre on the wrong thread?

Antyxx:
Why is no one answering me

kazmaxdsd:
Yea, I wanted to know how you eventually solved your payment with GTBank. We have been on it over 5weeks now, still nothing and the school is sending mails...08165381808

The answer to this would most likely be found on Canadian students thread not UK.. Nothing concern UK applicants with WES

Antyxx:

The following schools gave me an unconditional offer:
1. University of Bolton (1 year); Data Analytics and Technologies - Total fee: £11,950

2. Northumbria University (16 months); Data Science - Total fee: £14,500

3. University of Derby (1 year); Big Data Analytics - Total fee: £12,700.

Please guys, which is the best offer to go for considering the location and cost of living, job opportunities, and the course structure and standard of the school. Your choice with reasons will be highly appreciated. Thanks

Hello guys, someone should please respond to my question.

Cherryola:
Sorry house pls at 34 can I use my national diploma (ND) to apply for UK students visa for bsc degree

Yes you can but You will definitely need a convincing SOP why you applying at this age for bsc....also state what you been doing since your ND and why you didnt....this covers the study gap.

@justwise, @duchess and other gurus, kindly assist with your input regarding this:

I have unconditional offers from Northumbria University, Newcastle & University of Wolverhampton. I'm having some trouble making a choice. Their fees are almost same except that Wolverhampton is marginally lower.

Which of the schools would you advise based on - cost of living, availability of family accommodation, job opportunities (student & dependent), safety, access to major cities and any other comment about each of the school/city.

Your kind and prompt input would be highly appreciated as I am ready to make initial deposit.
Looking forward to your thoughts.

Hello,

I usually give advise about schools that I have personally attended, cities I live or have lived in or if I know someone personally that can share experience

I am not familiar with any of these schools you mentioned, some of the cities I have visited but not enough to advise you unfortunately.

Hopefully others with more information can or you can request to chat with student advisors in these school via your school's and ask questions directly to the students there.

Cheers

I really can not give you an informed information about any of those cities as i have never lived there, you really have to engage Google on this because you definitely find info about those cities

shawnmich:
Please I have a question guru in the house. I have an offer from a schools which I made a deposit and receive CAS, before later I got another offer from another school with lesser tuition fee and small scholarship. I want to confirm whether is possible to use the former school to enter UK and then change my school to the cheap one which I later got offer when I get to UK or is not possible? If so what is the implications, kindly please advice guru in the house.

Not Possible..

Peonies:
@Justwise, Banks do not disclose balances to embassies without customer's consent. If the Bank receives a request to confirm the balance, they must the holder for his consent. if he gives consent, they disclose. If some banks do it and the holder gets wind of it, he has a good cause of action against his bank for breach of confidentiality, and so, banks avoid doing this. I understand some bank officers have given these confirmations without customer consent, but the cases where there are blow backs from this breach of due process, you will not hear of it because banks will protect their image and usually fire the staff that erred.
so, in cases where balances are required, customer's consent is a requirement for disclosure, but I do not see any applicant declining to give consent when you have a pending application. Even if the applicant has given embassy consent, the bank will still obtain their own consent from their customer because whatever consent the customer gave the UKVI is unknown to the bank, because the consent was not given to the bank.

Bank will disclose your balance and they have always done that with or without your consent, you willingly submitted those documents to the embassy and authorised the embassy to them. So you have little or no legal standing if the embassy went ahead to those documents and the bank corporate.

Please can I use my business with UBA to process my FORM A, the BVN is in my name but as usual the name is in my business name? And can my wife process FORM A on my behalf?
Kindly respond because I'm scared of using First Bank and Union Bank which are my regular banks.
