usqoh: The email I used at the tls centre was different from the one I use for visa cos I had mistakenly registered on the lagos tls website instead of abuja. I corrected this when I went for biometrics but I had to use a different email address. I don't see why that should be a problem though. I sent them a message saying that my tracking status hasn't changed but they haven't replied. |

Kabosky1956:I applied @ ikeja, my interview date was on the 4th I mean. The letter that came together with my passport was dated 14th it means it took 10days. When I didn't get a reply from them, I had to send an email to ukvi to check the status of my app in which they replied (that was ystdy)b4 Tls later sent me a mail that decision as been made. Maximum 15days if u don't get a mail, you can contact ukvi directly to know the status of ur app 1 Like 1 Share |

eljaye: Cerebrospinal meningitis vaccine csm is mandatory for all international student coming to study in UK, according to UK rules. They ask that everyone should be vaccinated 2 weeks before coming to the UK, it is not a request from schools but the UK rule. Although I don't know whether they ask, but I think its for ur safety. 1 Like 1 Share |

bidosko: No worries man. Well it depends on your budget tbh. are you looking for a shared house? or a one bedroom flat? There's an agency that does (quite luxurious, relatively neater) shared houses for affordable prices, they also have some 1 & 2 bedroom flats. their website is jnrproperties.co.uk. You could also check rightmove.co.uk or zoopla.co.uk. |

pet01: Really? You must be vaccinated two weeks before you enter. Well I am sorry I won't do that. I have been vaccinated about four years ago and it lasts for 10 years if I still remember my immunization studies. I am not about to overload myself with unnecessary vaccines after taking csm, hep b, t.t and yellow fever vaccines. Besides I have a yellow card, they had better honor that. For those who want to take their meningitis shot, go to any health center or the community health department of any government hospital (where they immunize babies) and ask for it. They would probably tell you to get a card and pay about 100-300 naira then you take the card to the federal ministry of health office at any federal secretariat to get a yellow card. I hope that advice works in most states. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Hello house I have learnt a lot from this forum and I appreciate all of you. I need clarification on what exchange rates the BHC use to convert our naira to pounds because to be frank my tuition fee is in the sky but I have tried to raise the sum along with the maintenance fee. On getting to my agent's office today they used N330 per GBP and that left me with a deficit of about N71000. I have completed my 28day wait and I am due for a visa interview next week. Please I need your sincere contributions. Thanks. |
Re: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part2 by Ademuyiz(m): 10:35pm On Aug 20, 2015 |
Sylverbox: I think your agent used the worst ever case scenario. The BHC converts naira to pounds according to the day's rate on http://www.oanda.com/currency/converter/. They use the exchange rate of the day on which you submit(ted) your application. It's always advisable to put a little bit over the amount to adjust for fluctuations, I'm guessing that's what your agent did. For today's rate, 1 pound is equivalent to 316.24 Naira. Just checked Oanda. |
Re: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part2 by Sylverbox(m): 10:58pm On Aug 20, 2015 |
Ademuyiz:Thank you very much. I used 320 before sourcing for the funds and I have since been topping it with minor inflows. I just hope it doesn't go north again. |

There appears to be some hysteria about the Meningitis inoculation. The latest guidelines to universities and students strongly suggest immunization. I can not find in the immigration rules any requirement for this. So the place for accurate information is the admissions office of your university. Do not rely on speculation, check with your school who may have their own regulations. 2 Likes |

From all the application processes, it wasn't stated anywhere that these vaccines are compulsory, it would have been indicated. I think it's a personal thing. Am even still trying to locate where it is mandatory to have a yellow card prior to departure. Please can someone advise? Thank you. thababe: |
Re: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part2 by djfrancis: 10:36am On Aug 21, 2015 |

Re: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part2 by pet01(m): 11:51am On Aug 21, 2015 |
The meningitis vaccine is not compulsory as no embassy or immigration rules required it, but UK health department states that its necessary for international immigrants in order to protected by certain diseases. U can Google UK department of health for details. |
