Interesting comment in bold .... do they ask for source of money and how the money was made ?

Or the primary focus is just the ability to show you have the money for at least 28 days

Cc justwise
I was asked what I do for a living(since I was self funding), and my monthly salary and how my proposed studies could possibly lead to a change in salary when I also mentioned “salary increment” as one of the reasons why I want to go for further studies.
NB: please always have an explanation for any money in your account especially if you re self-funding. They may or may not ask you sha...

Thanks... this is noted

If a man is travelling with his wife and daughter and the source of fund if asked is stated that his brother who is living in the UK sent it. I wonder if that would be an issue

Sounds suspicious if you ask me though....his brother could ask for return of funds immediately after the 28days or immediately he gets to the UK...leaving with no financial power to carter for his studies and dependants.

The man should state that he works na and have been saving money for a long time and he should be careful when asked how much he earns monthly ....and should totally avoid saying anything about “salary increment” as a reason why he is going for further studies as it may prompt series of questions that could lead to queries about what he does for a living

Thanks........ are we saying in UK you cannot school based on family funds. Ie money gotten from Siblings or inheritance . The money required to show is a lot so i would have thought its ok to be sponsored by a sibling or uncle as long as the fund is in the applicants bank account

I wonder if paying the school fees before submitting the application will help

Tie 4 student rule is very clear on that..only your mother, father or legal guidance can sponsor an applicant

Paying school fees before submitting application will not make much of a difference because the school will still take their money during orientation anyway. Hardly will they allow you to pay by installment.

Prospective UK students

It is wise to defer your admission and visa process to next year if you are applying for one year Masters program so that you can be eligible to apply for the two years post study work visa after your studies.

For two years Master, Undergraduate and PhD, you can study this year to benefit.

The UK education sector is elated that post-study work rights are set to be offered to international students for two years post-graduation, with students graduating in the 2020/21 academic year set to benefit from this new immigration rule.


I am to start in January.. would I benefit from it? 1year msc

Whoa! If you live in Lagos, maybe you should visit the VAC to check. I'm still waiting, did biometrics on Aug 30.
What is happening really? I don't understand. Priority service users receive theirs immediately the decision is made, so why should it be different for standard service? I'm beginning to think this TLS VACs are somewhat unreliable.

From most cases this season , the delay had been on the part of TLS.
So do yourself a favour by going to TLS to inquire.
How do you mean Standard Priority?

Dearie you can school base on family funds in your father’s bank account and inheritance in your own bank account!. Just like the German block account , UKVI wants to be sure you will have every access to the fund hence the rules about your parents been your sponsor.
Although you can be sponsored by any member of your family but as long as UKVI tier 4 policies are concerned, you must prove you have / will have access to the said money by allowing it stay in your account or parents account.

Paying the fees before submitting the form(visa application you mean abi?) can actually help in reducing how much you need to show in your account.
NB: please for those people that will borrow money put in d account and after 28days , return it to the owners. Be warned that it’s impossible to work and pay for maintenance and tuition as an international students and if along the line you re unable to pay your tuition installment as of when it’s due...na straight deportation oo!
