@ justwise Thanks for your response. i am going to have the 7300pounds Living expenses plus the remaining balance of my school fees in my account for the 28 days and after, but i was thinking of usin my Dad's friend in case if the BHC ask me about any other things like accomodation (he has an apartment in London where i want to study) and the source of the money in my account. What do u think brov?

£7300 plus the remaining fees balance is enough, accommodation is included in that £7200 the Homeoffice want you to have for london. Since ur dady's friend has a house in london then £7300 is even more than enough as u don't need to pay rent again. The only person that can give u a sponsor letter is ur dady, ur mum, brother, sister or any family member that shares the same family name with you. Please check if ur school is registered with Homeoffice cos there are alot of sham colleges in london. Good luck

@Justwise. Yes brov. "South Chelsea college" is registered. U mean they wont ask me for any sponsor as i already hav the money plus the accomodation. Then i hav no prob, Hope i could contact u in case i need any help? Thanks a million brov.

What i'm saying is. . . . u can only get sponsor letter from the pple i listed in my previous post and not ur dady's friend. Attaching sponsor's letter is very very good, saves you alot of prob.

Yes South Chelsea College is registered but i'm worried abt that college. I still don't know why they use .co.uk and not ac.uk.

I don't think that matters, i already met some of naija students in the school's last year intake. i even met a guy that entered the school January this year though he was denied visa once in september last year. I just pray i apply for mine and get it once. (amen)

Things have changed, there are alot of foreign students there cos their school fees is relatively cheap compared to other schools. But that is also a prob for them, many foreign students use that college to enter UK and start working more and less lectures, now that is a prob for the school. They wouldn't want to report that student to Homeoffice but at the same time, if they refused to report such students their licence will be suspended. Now that any student doing a course below degree level can only work 10hrs a week, it put more pressure on the school and students, nobody can survive here on 10hrs work wk.

Just be positive,BHC will not deny you a visa as long as u meet the requirements, some pple here got their students visa through that school.
Good luck.

You guys are doing a great work on this thread, God bless. Pls I need expert advise, am trying to apply for a tourist UK visa for my wife who does her personal business. She has been to Dubai and Kenya. She wants to buy stuff in UK to sell. I want to sponsor her, my salary is low (1.7m per anum) but I have other biz I do that gives me money. We are married with two kids. Secondly, can she applied with her old passport or is compulsory she gets a new one. How do I go about it and what are my chances. Your comment will be appreciated

firstly try and get the new E-passport, its her own property ,2nd the issue of tourist visa is complicating as it involves loads of cash,I think what she falls under is Biz visa instead of tourist visabut dont you or she has someone here in the Uk who can give you guys invitation letter?

yeh thats true it would be,cos you got to show on request tax cert etc, but she cant get out of this question, cos if touring, they def gonna ask her for wha she does for living and how she sustain herself etc,to prove to the ECO that she is comming back at the end of her stay,so you see, she does needs some kind of income and I dont think you could sponsor somebody touring,btw,, why dont both of you apply together,that way you could use ur account for both application or rather still, open a joint account.

Please has any1 applied for uk student visa under tier4 with their academic transcript? Also,i'll like to ask if i need to enclose a photocopy of my original degree transcript, which is normally in a sealed sch official envelope. By opening this addressed envelope, does it reduce its genuity value at application level? I strongly hope that u guys will be able to help.

Since the new system starts Sept, applying say. . . July will give you enough time to prepare, if they refused u a visa u will still have enough time to re-apply or appeal.

Abi any1 knows of any good school with about £2000 or less tuition fee dat is better than South-chelsea?, HERRY ABEG WE NEED TO TALK. Am about to start processin and i want us to get talkin along the whole stuff. Pls giv me ur email so we could chat (mine is tvultimate@yahoo.com). I no get choice. I dey come ur skul in september.

@Guzy, 4giv me I'm not yet a student of the skul. Just about to start my application process just like u, Ask HERRY, He is in da best position to answer.
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries by guzy: 10:42am On May 08, 2010
@Emeno, as 4 d question u asked funky as to wether the 900pounds deposit to KCBC will affect ur visa app. The answer is capital NO. Even d new policy for ''highly trusted sponsor'' wont affect u cos u are applying 4 a diploma program which is at level 4 of the NQF.

Pls, did u apply and send all your documents online to KCBC or u sent them via post? Also, did u pay the 50pounds application fee or it was waived and finally, how long did it take for them to process your application? Expecting ur reply. thanks
