TUITION.
Start your search for admission by applying to several Universities but you need to consider the following factors.
1. The Course you want to study.
2. The location of the school. (Inside London or Outside London)
3. The review of the school.
4. Your account balance.
5. The school's Payment plan. (Very important maka depression).
So, I advise you consider the schools that are cheap with good reviews. On the average, go for schools with tuition fees between £13,000 to £17,000.
A few school may allow you pay less deposit BUT be ready to pay 50% of the balance before enrollment. Let me explain this, if your tuition is £15,000 and the school asks you to pay a deposit of £5000. Please make provision for 50% of the balance because they must ask for it before your enrollment.
Some of the schools may require you to provide proof of funds before they issue you a CAS (Confirmation of Acceptance of Studies).
Before you apply for visa, ensure you have the needed funds in your account for the last 28days.
Proof of funds means showing the account statement showing a total of your tuition fee balance and your living expenses. In essence, they want to be sure that you have the required funds that will see you through.
For example: For a school with Total tuition fees of £15,000 that asked you to pay a tuition deposit of £5000. This implies that you should show £10,000 (Balance) + £9207(Living expenses) = £19,207 or its equivalent in your account.
Note: UKVI always use oanda rate to calculate our POFs. Assuming Oanda rate is N560 for £1, it is always advised that you use something N600 against £1 incase of fluctuation.
£19,207 X 600 = N11,524,200
