Thanks a lot

Good option but I worked in Amazon during my long vacayion cuz of January entry. Its a cool paying job. Part-time is hardly available but if you can enquire in ur area no p. Still work there till today. Although my second trimester starts in 2 weeks so I wud resign from the fulltime Amazon work to face my studies.

You are right about par time being difficult to get but it depends on your agency, a friend was able to switch to part time before new semester starts.

Which of the FCs do you work in? Swansea?

The Durfermline FC although I live in Glasgow

Ok. There are a lot of opportunities in Amazon if you can crack it. Yes some of the work is intensive but holiday hour allocations for blue badge holders are good especially after one year.

Asin CR my dept is soo easy dan when i was in stowing n pick. Haha ok. Enuf of Amazon so as not to derail the thread.

Just as the thread relates to how Nigerian students in the UK cope, please I wana ask a few questions.

(1) Presently for those going soon or those who have just arrived UK,please how can one best handle maintenance bearing in mind the current exchange rate? Getting PTA is difficult and getting from black marketers is just out of it. Apart from withdrawing with the mastercard, what other means can you suggest?

(2) Secondly how many of you have heard of afrotradegroup? Heard one can transfer money from Nigeria to UK through them. If u have used them,how efficient and reliable are they?

Expecting responses.

I think @guiddoti should just ask @chilez out

Bad timing but you can still go back for Xmas busy period. Are you doing undergraduate degree or Msc?

Should everything be asked out? This is an informative forum, not dating, bro.

Hi guys,please who's going to the university of Leeds this September?? Anybody Am I alone? I'm an msc student

sugarlillz, let's talk about Leeds. how did you do it, i've been looking at getting a space for msc. I'm about rounding up my NYSC Pls enlighten me.

Good day everyone,my question is what are the necessary things to check before paying for accommodation ?

Like how many minutes away from the campus is ideal (houses close to school are expensive), bills included 40/50 weeks contract, etc

Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks



*edit*

I am going to Liverpool and my campus is On Byrom street

BTW, I'm based in Glasgow and work nearby.
I have a spare room in my flat which I can rent to a student for a negotiable fee.
If you're interested or know anyone who is, please send a PM.
Cheers.
