Hallelujah

May God's name be praised. I picked up my passport today at VI TLS.

Applied to 4 schools and got offers from them: Coventry, London Metropolitan University (offers in 2 courses), Middlesex University and Glasgow Caledonian University. Paid deposit to Middlesex as I got their offer 3 days after applying (October 7). I did 3 pre-CAS interviews and I was proud of my performance but was denied CAS because of my study gap (7 years). Applied for refund of 4500 pounds deposit (got refunded just last week since December).

Had to find a way of paying 3000 deposit for London Metropolitan University and applied for CAS in December. Got my CAS, January 6. No interviews. They are probably the fastest with CAS once you get your documents ready. You can get CAS in 3 days once they verified your payment.

Visa Application Jan 10th
Biometrics VI TLS Jan 18th
Paid mail February 7th Decision made
Collection mail February 7th
Passport collection February 8th
Documents submitted- Degree Certificate, Transcript, IELTS, POF, CAS, TB Certificate, Introduction letter, no NSF despite 7 years of study gap.

Went through a whole lot during this period. Already gave up hope as my school gave me 14th February as latest day for me to be the UK and they already advised me to defer till September but the good Lord came through for me.

What kept me going during it all was someone's testimony on Part 7 when she said her bible verse for prayer was Ephesians 3 vs 20. Since that day in early January, I wake up every night to pray and use the verse as point of contact with God. He answered my prayers.

I'll be in London this week as God lives and I am not sure I'll be able to hold my tears at Heathrow when I get to hug my eldest brother for the first time since 2002 when he left Nigeria. Man Sponsored everything.

I am crying as I'm typing this. I've gone through a lot.

May the good Lord grant favour to each and everyone of you still waiting on him as regards visa application, he will surely do it. You only need to believe.

Thank you Nairaland. You guys are all amazing. Words alone cannot describe the lives you guys have changed here. Let's keep the flag flying.

congratulations. How is studying at London metropolitan? Do they require pre CAS interview and pof? Thank you

Pls what is the payment plan of LMU?[/quote]

Congratulations on your CAS. Please can I contact you if need be? I am also heading to Chester. Thanks

bali233:
Just received my CAS for May 2022 intake. Chester is so fast. I completed the CAS request on Friday

BlessingVic:


Please I want to ask if there is a group chat for Ulster students

I’m also going to Ulster university,may intake
Already paid my deposit and it has been confirmed too. I made request for CAS only to get a mail saying that may intake is fully subscribed so I can either defer to September or ask for a refund of my deposit.

Please is there anything I can do to resume for may because I really do not want to defer till December

Good morning, everyone.

Those already given CAS from Ulster University. Does Ulster University request for CAS before they gave you CAS?

Thank you.

Same! 19th of march.

You applied for January 2023 too?

Peonies:
Good evening guys

So, I got a conditional offer from university of Glasgow and I have been asked to submit my Waec certificate as a condition of my offer.
Issue now is, they require coloured copies of the certificate but it is lost and I only have a scanned photocopy.
Is there a way to generate the certificate again? How do I go about it?

Go to court and swear affidavit, then go waec office and apply for confirmation of result

enesty:
Hello, please I have a question
As regards the POF, do i need to have the funds in my account or it can be in someone's else account.
Note:I have money just for the tution and some other stuffs, and little for living expenses,but the chunk of the money ain't with me. I was told that if a sponsor is paying for my living expenses,when I begin the process after I get cas,that's when I can get the sponsor account statement,is this true?

Only allowed if the sponsor is your actual parent . ..... that only when you are allowed to use their account statement

Pls were you given a discount? I had an offer from them without discount

There was no discount in the offer letter, but i according to school’s website, the discount will be applied when making subsequent payment after the admission deposit and it’s not a discount one needs to apply for it would be deducted provided one meets the requirements
