Travel / Re: Nigerian Students In The Uk How Do You Survive? by Esiakbolt: 9:19am On Sep 07, 2021 |
Stan999: Good day guys, I would be needing your candid advice.
A few months ago, a friend urged me to apply to university of Hull for an MSc program. Reason been that the tution was reduced to 9k pounds for international students. I was a bit skeptical due to many reviews online about the harsh conditions around retention and student part-time student jobs. However, I applied for the fun since there were no application fees and last week I got 2 conditional offers in supply chain management and energy engineering from the university.
On a personal note, I'm more inclined to the supply chain management due to its universality in almost any industry with a focus on supply chain analytics. Energy engineering on the other hand is quite robust buh has limitations due to its reservation to just energy. I'm a self taught data analyst of 2 years with working experience in the energy sector and currently in fintech and I have been able to save up N3,500,000 for this journey. Clearly from previous posts, this won't suffice. I can foot up to the expected 34% tuition on arrival and hope I'm able to spread the remaining 66% across the 4th and 7th months by engaging in jobs.
My big question is how REALISTIC can 2k pounds be made in 3 months as a student? What are the likely penalties of defaulting?
On a lighter note, I have seen some interesting Supply chain analyst roles in UK from LinkedIn and the required skills are what I currently use for analyses in my job here. If you have an idea of the job market apart from what online searches have, do share!!
Furthermore, the resumption date is September 20th and I would really be grateful if someone outlines the next steps for me to take as I'm yet to accept or defer the offer. I'm a bit skeptical if I would be able to complete the processes on time and would be grateful to know how feasible it is to conclude all processes and travel a week before the resumption date.
Thanks in anticipation Hello stan99, I got admission from University of Hull, you can reach me on ademolaesiak@gmail.com |

I know nothing about piggybank but I use cowrywise and I like it for these reasons
1. It's very user friendly. Everything about the website and setting up my account was easy, no hassles.
2. Responsive & helpful customer service. The chat message platform on their site is active.You receive a response to your questions or complaints within a few minutes of communicating it.
3. Remarkable client services. I like the articles they send me via email on financial matters. Cowrywise has helped to educate me and keep me well informed about finances, savings & investments through those articles.
I like to read so their articles are appreciated. If you don't like to read their emails may feel like a bother & a nuisance ![grin](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/grin.png)
