Pls I just want to know which of these transfer rates is cheaper using my gtb atm in d UK or opening and account there and my parents should transfer funds monthly. Will also want to know a better option if any is available. Thanks |
Re: Nigerian Students In The Uk How Do You Survive? by Nobody: 6:38pm On Jan 12, 2015 |
tmosco: GTB rates are quite high. I think it's more cost-efficient to just open a UK account and have your folks transfer all the money into it. I should know. I used a GTB card, switched to Stanbic and eventually had to transfer money from my Nigerian banks to a UK bank. Just imagine how hard it must have been for me to transfer from Nigeria to UK while staying in the UK. |

Good day friends, Pls how best can i apply and get a job here. I live in Cranfield and school in Cranfield University (MSc on scholarship) but want to do some hustling to make some extra cash while I study. Cranfield is a less commercial village in terms of activity, what make it is the university presence. A more busy neighbourhood is Milton Keynes. I have tried getting a job but have not yet gotten any. Any help guys on how best to go about it? |

Re: Nigerian Students In The Uk How Do You Survive? by gcey2k(m): 2:33am On Jan 18, 2015 |
busdebbie: Most scholarships and how to get them are advertised online. NLNG, AJIP, NNPC/MOBIL, NDDC, name them. Even the Commonwealth you mentioned. So you have to keep your fingers crossed and make good use of the internet you have to get what you want. Plus prepare for the test(s) and/or the interview(s) that may follow. Best wishes. |

Greetings to the house, please I applied for nursing to five schools through UCAS for march 2015, so far I've gotten three reply and the three out of d five z unsuccessful. I called a representative of one school in Nigeria and she told me dat no UK university accepts international student for nursing, pls how through is that? Again, she said that there's nothing lik school starting in march for undergraduate studies, dat it's only in September, is it true? she equally said that I can't get any undergraduate admission without a foundation class for a year, pls someone should help me out of dis dilemma, pls **tears*** |
Re: Nigerian Students In The Uk How Do You Survive? by Lexusgs430: 11:28am On Jan 18, 2015 |
ogompaul: Studying nursing in the UK is usually free and only entitled to students that have recourse to public funds, because it's funded by the NHS. Session usually has two entry periods(Sept & Jan). I hope your questions are answered? |
Re: Nigerian Students In The Uk How Do You Survive? by ogompaul(m): 12:23pm On Jan 18, 2015 |
Lexusgs430:Thanks for!that piece. Pls, MUST it funded by uk based NHS only? what if the person is on Nigerian government Scholarship? could u please recommend any English speaking/teaching country I can still get admitted for nursing dis march or may pls. Thanks |

Information that you could have found by using Google search! International students wishing to register and work in the UK nursing profession are required to complete the Overseas Nursing Programme (ONP) as part of their studies. http://www.studyin-uk.com/studyuk/nursing/ |
Re: Nigerian Students In The Uk How Do You Survive? by justwise(m): 12:33pm On Jan 18, 2015 |
ogompaul: I really don't think that foreign students are offered nursing courses in the UK as its funded by NHS. Hardly any school start admission in March, its Sept or Jan. Yes you can get undergraduate admission without doing foundation course for one year, if your English language is not good enough many schools will enroll you in a module like English language for communication, it will be just extra module in your first year, you do it the same time with your first year degree modules. |
Re: Nigerian Students In The Uk How Do You Survive? by ogompaul(m): 5:58pm On Jan 18, 2015 |
justwise:Thanks u @ justwise. Buh what about pharmacy or medical related professional such as MLS, Physiotherapy, etc? again, I didn't know these info before I applied to UCAS, now dat I know, is there a way I can swap to other courses? Thanks. |
Re: Nigerian Students In The Uk How Do You Survive? by justwise(m): 6:09pm On Jan 19, 2015 |
ogompaul: Sure you can study one of those. Sorry for late reply though |
