Ebalafaa:


Thank God for a safe trip. Please I need some clarification from you....Are you still in Nigeria? Did you apply with your wife and children? I know the rules require both parents to apply with the children at the same time or one parent must already be in the UK.

Just want to be properly guided on how best to go about this to meet the 'serious and compelling' condition under the UKVI rules why my daughter has to travel with me without her father. I originally wanted to apply with only my daughter but seems I cannot do that with ease.

Kindly reply.

Thanks for the link. It stated that ...... or one has permission to stay in the UK , meaning the main applicant must be in possession of valid UK Visa.

Good morning wonderful people of nairaland. I know this question may have been answered before, forgive me for repeating it; I want like the name of four UK universities that can allow one start off a masters degree with HND. I've seen some offering one-year pre-masters but if someone can proceed straight to masters that'll save some good money.

Honestly, your comment is spot on!!! People that are doing the honest and right thing are being denied, while those 'arranging POF' are being granted. Strange stuff right there.

Thanks for your advice. I plan to contact the school on this on Monday. In my case, I sent the letter from Prodigy Finance to the Finance team and they have ticked off the finance condition for me earlier this month. I am optimistic that by God's grace, the school would give me a receipt evidencing receipt of that amount (though disbursement is not till October) so I can use in lieu of the loan letter.

This is why I am grateful for this thread and everyone who is willing to contribute and share their experiences (positive or negative). God bless you all.

I would keep the house updated on developments so that others can also be guided.

@Tolvin hang in there. Do you still have some time for late resumption? Please speak to your school....I believe it is not yet the end.

Patnuel2015:
There is no rule that state all of you must apply at same time. You can do that if you want, it's your choice. However, you alone can apply then you family apply later. Also you and you child can apply at same time while your husband applies later. It all depends on what you guys want. Although you should know that if you are not applying together with your husband but with you child, a consent letter must be sign by both you and your husband. So choose which is convenient for you.

Kukujajaja:
Eya! I felt your pains. With the look of things the university in question has set out approximately time for international students enrollment and so on. I suggest you deferred your admission to January 2022 if they've intake for January. Obviously, this is best option to avoid unnecessary stress and free from undue pressure. Best wishes.

I was rooting for you, so sorry you had to pass through this. And I pray everything works out well for you in Jan.

Tolvin:
For Prodigy Finance to disburse the funds to the school, you'd need to have arrived on campus to sign the loan agreement. So, no disbursement till you get to the university and there's no way you can get to the school without having received your visa. Hence, the visa application. A friend of mine used Prodigy for Netherlands visa application and he got it. But the UK is different from the Netherlands.

I honestly want to believe it's an error from the ECO and I would have applied for AR but I had to return the funds in my bank account and my passport had exactly 8months to expiration when I applied for my visa. If I had applied for AR, my passport would be less than six months to expiration.However, you can get a letter from the university attesting to the Prodigy Finance loan letter.

I have deferred my admission to January entry and I will get the full funds in my bank account to present to UKVI.

I actually had thesame loan letter and I presented it to them. You can go ahead to apply with an additional letter from the school if that could help or you decide the get the full funds, wait for 28days and apply. I pray everything comes out successful

Wow, Nice. When did you apply?

You are just lashing out because you got called out for making a mistake.

Why do you move abroad with larger family if you have no accommodation waiting or made an arrangement for one?

When you failed to plan then you planned to fail, you have two options when moving abroad with family of 1,2 or more.

1. Main applicant moved first, stay in a hotel, BnB, AirBnB to settle, get accommodation before moving the rest of the family.

2. Pay for student accommodation for one semester, use that opportunity to get something cheaper and suitable for family.

Its not rock scientist that if you moved with larger family it will cost you a lot to stay in a hotel or AirBnB.

The reason you gave for the lack of accommodation is not true because:

1. We have had PSW before for many years and there was no accommodation crisis then.

2. The UK was still a member of EU then hence many EU students and other EU members can easily troop into the UK as they wish but still many foreign students still get accommodation.

Years ago when i moved from Bradford to Portsmouth, i travelled to Portsmouth first(this is about 6hrs journey) stayed in a hotel for just a day, got list of private landlords from the university and the next day i viewed 3 properties and was able to get one. I moved back to Bradford to pack my stuff.

Yes you were desperate for a place and that was why you offered to pay more than the asking price.

Ebalafaa:


What?? It is the same one I have. But the UKVI rules say you can use a student loan letter as POF. Is it because of the condition in foot prints on the attached letter you were refused? I think you should get the school involved and/or ask for administrative review.

I am really sorry about this for you. This is making me unsettled because I planned to apply on Tuesday.

So that I and other people here can learn from your experience, please I would need additional clarification from you. Prodigy Finance is regulated by the FCA and the rules say the company granting the loan should be regulated by the FCA. Why then are they rejecting it? What then is the way forward? Would an additional letter from your school confirming acceptance of the loan from Prodigy Finance and advance disbursement help or would have helped?

He may be the 'son of a dead millionaire' indirectly he has increased the cost of renting in that area or encourage the agent to expect such offer from other foreign students.
