Hello All...

Please do I need a sponsor letter? My sister is my sponsor. My fees have already been paid. My maintenance money has been held in my account, in my own name, even though she supplied all the funds.

I want to know if I need a letter from her stating she's the one going to sponsor me for the duration of my studies? Should she also send financial documents, like her own bank statements?

I had thought that the maintenance money held in my own name would have been sufficient proof of financial independence

Pls a quick response is appreciated

Once you have the whole maintenance money held in your own account under your own name for 28 days then you dont need any other document

Thanks a lot bro. I know nothing is guaranteed. With hard work, determination and a teeny weeny bit of luck, anything is possible.

At least I choose a reputable school or so they tell me.

All the very best, give it your best shot.

From people's experiences here that status may remain that was until you get your visa, don't always count on it.

@Justwise is it safe to pull out money meant for maintenance from my account this period, as I have a pressing need?

If you got your visa now then you can withdraw the money, but if your application is still pending then its a bad idea

Good day all,

Big kudos to all those that has really made this thread very informative.

I've been following this thread as a guest for sometime but decided to signup so as to enable proper interaction.

I recently got an offer at Sheffield Hallam University, the tuition fee is 9150 (12150 - 3000, discount given to Nigerians) plus maintenance fee of 7380, making it a total of 16530 . With the initial deposit of 1000 as requested by the school, my CAS was sent and I applied for visa on 2nd sept 2014.

My dad can sponsor my stay in Uk effectively but I can't afford to start counting my 28days as the school's intial start date is 15 sept 2014, so we got a sponsorship letter from my local government stating that the sum of 4.5m would be made available to me as soon as the visa is issued.

Do I have to relax that the visa will be approved and issued?

Please I need your thoughts and insight on this.
Thanks.

I did not get any CAS document from my university (Middlesex University). All I got was an email containing my sponsor's details and my CAs number. I understand I need to submit my CAS when applying for my visa. Can I print this email and it along? Thank you house. My interview is on the 9th of September at Ikeja.

GeneralShepherd: My 28th day is today,also paid my tuition gotten my tb certificate. I just don't know why I'm scared of going to the UK now.

Did anyone have cold feet before the msc? The challenge ahead of me seems daunting! No plagiarism? We virtually copied and pasted our assignments in Nigeria.


No family? No old friend? No Nigerian food? Racism? Infact I barely slept last night. Think I had a panic attack!

Justwise, did you have any of these feelings before leaving for the uk?

SpikeC how are you coping?

I am scared

Am doing fine. Still staying with my bro currently and as i came very early, everything seems to be falling in place.
If you've lived on your own in Nigeria, then you don't have anything to worry about.
People generally are friendly and university support in the UK is to notch.
They help in everything. Where to get accommodation, food and even where to party. They will direct you.

For me, i believe racism is a thing of the mind. Just try to make friends with as much people as you can, get connected and be open minded.
But be careful though, white people are very corny and unstable.
They can sue you for stupid things.

Your TB certificate is supposed to bear your UK school address.
You need a court affidavit for your name

You can print at anytime as far as it covers a consecutive 28days.
Budget 100k for the visa application, subtract that from the money in your account and see if the balance would be enough to cover your maintenance fund

Print the oanda page the day you paid for your application.
