Student Dependant Visa: The Best Country to Travel to with your Family

STUDENT DEPENDANT VISA: THE BEST COUNTRY TO TRAVEL TO WITH YOUR FAMILY One should not give up on their desire to study abroad because they are either married with kids or they are a single parent, this should not stop a person from advancing their career. There are several opportunities for one to professionally build his/her career and this can be done while travelling with family members such as parents, spouses or children using a student dependant visa. As a parent, your children look up to you, so you should teach them to be ambitious, hardworking and focused and help them build a better life and aspire for a brilliant career. This can be done with a dependant visa. WHAT IS A DEPENDANT VISA? A dependent visa is a kind of visa that allows prospective study abroad students to travel with their spouse or their children to the country of their choice and study at the university they desire. By doing this, you will not only be on your way to building a successful career but you will also be helping your children or spouse lead a better life. During the process of getting a dependant visa, a prospective student is known to be the primary applicant and the family members are known as the dependants. With a dependant visa, the dependants can: Stay with the primary applicant/family. Travel and explore Study (in some cases) Work (in some cases) The different types of dependent visas are: Temporary visa Permanent visa A Temporary dependant visa enables the spouse of the primary applicant to work (with limited capacity), it also enables the children of the primary applicant to study, as long as they are below 17years. A permanent dependent visa enables the dependants of the primary applicant to become permanent residents. This can only be possible if the dependants have lived in the country for more than 5 years. THE REQUIREMENTS Valid passport Proof that your relationship is genuine. (Marriage Certificate, Birth Certificate, Photo Album etc) Original birth certificate Evidence of meeting the financial requirement (Proof of funds) for each dependant Properly filled visa application form. Proof of Visa fee etc CONDITIONS NEEDED TO GET A DEPENDANT VISA FOR COUNTRIES LIKE CANADA, IRELAND, THE USA AND THE UK A Student who intend to study in the US or who is already studying in the US can bring their families to live with them as they study. The family member is required to provide both their valid and expired international passport, multiple proofs of their relationship with the primary applicant (the student). Like a Marriage certificate, Wedding invitations and cards, Birth certificate, photos or Weddig album. There are different types of US dependant visas some of which permit a dependant to work while other types restrict them from working while in the US as a dependant. To get a Canadian dependant visa, the family members are required to take an English Level Test and provide other important documents like documents containing proof of relationship with the primary applicant before a dependant visa can be granted. Fortunately, dependants are permitted to work in Canada with a Canadian dependant visa. A student with plans to study in Ireland should be aware that they are not allowed to travel with their family members while studying in Ireland, as their families are expected to make their own Visa applications. However, prospective study abroad students are permitted to travel with their families if they intend to study a PhD program in Ireland. The United Kingdom can be said to be the best country where prospective students with a UK Student visa can get a dependent visa for their family to travel with them as they go for their studies abroad. The UK student dependant visa is known to make travelling with your family fast and easy. A valid international passport for identification, marriage certificate and birth certificate is enough for proof of relationship between the dependant and the primary applicant, the dependant can work with a dependant visa while in the UK, the dependant is not required to write an English Level Test to apply for a UK dependant visa.

Covid 19 Update for International Students in the UK

COVID 19 UPDATE FOR INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS IN THE UK COVID 19 VACCINATION IN THE UK The recent Covid 19 update in UK universities, which is the opening of Covid 19 vaccination centres on campuses, makes certain that international students are well protected as they begin their studies in the UK. In the year 2019, a deadly virus emerged, this virus killed many and caused a general lockdown. Public places, schools, organizations in the UK and around the world were put on lockdown as a way to curb the spread of this deadly virus. Citizens were advised to sit at home and no movement was permitted. Its been over a year since the virus emerged and organizations, public places and schools have gradually begun to open, especially since the Covid 19 vaccine was established. In addition to the preventive measures of staying at least 1 metre away from others, covering a cough or sneeze in your elbow, frequently cleaning your hands, wearing a mask and avoiding poorly ventilated rooms or opening a window, Covid 19 vaccines were established to prevent people from getting seriously ill and dying from this deadly virus. A new semester is approaching for universities in the UK, which is the September intake, and the UK government has ensured that universities implement Covid 19 safety measures and are looking to vaccinate students despite the impact of Corona Virus in the UK, to help the universities properly function after over a year of disruption and are hoping to keep online-only courses to a minimum. Although it’s a personal choice, International students are strongly encouraged to take up the opportunity to get vaccinated against COVID 19, to protect themselves and those around them, both within the university environment and while with their family and friends and also, keep up with Covid 19 update to stay safe. OPENING OF VACCINATION CENTRES ON CAMPUSES IN UK UNIVERSITIES As restrictions gradually ease and schools begin to open, universities in the UK find it imperative for vaccination to be made easy and convenient for students as the more students are vaccinated, the more transmission can be reduced. Universities in the UK have begun setting up their own Covid 19 vaccination centres and facilities including pop-up clinics and NHS vaccine buses, in an attempt to make campuses as safe as possible for the autumn term (September Intake). Universities like The University of the West of England (UWE) in Bristol and Kingston University in south London have already opened campus vaccination centres, the University of Stirling in Scotland opened a centre to students on Saturday the 14th of August, other universities, including Cardiff, Manchester, Birmingham and Portsmouth have confirmed they are in discussions about setting up vaccination services. These centres will be run and staffed by the NHS, however, universities are offering to train students to volunteer in them. The NHS stands for the National Health Service. It refers to Government-funded medical and health care services. Universities in the UK are willing to work with NHS to train students as volunteers.

How to Prepare for a Pre-Cas Interview

HOW TO PREPARE FOR A PRE-CAS INTERVIEW After a student has been granted an offer to study in a university in the UK, they are required to request a CAS (Confirmation for Acceptance of Studies) to complete their admission. After a student sends in a request for CAS, a date is given for an interview, this is known as the Pre-Cas interview. Students are expected to prepare properly for the Pre-Cas interview in order to have a successful admission. If the student’s Pre-Cas interview is successful, a CAS form or a CAS draft is sent in by the university, to be filled. After which the student will be granted a Confirmation for Acceptance of Studies (CAS). WHAT IS A PRE-CAS INTERVIEW In some universities in the UK, an interview must be done before a CAS can be given but the Pre-Cas interview does not apply to all universities in the UK. Other universities in the UK issue a CAS after a request has been sent in by the student and the CAS form has been filled. A Pre-Cas interview is an interview carried out before a CAS is issued. The purpose of the Pre-Cas interview is to ascertain that the student’s intention to study in a university in the UK is genuine, as such, universities get to know a student’s true intentions through the Pre-Cas interview. The interview is held electronically and will take approximately 30 minutes, also, feedback regarding the interview will be provided within 2 to 3 working days. Students should be aware that a Pre-Cas interview can make or break their chances of getting an admission into the university of their choice, therefore, students should ensure that they impress the interviewers and have a successful interview. POSSIBLE QUESTIONS ASKED DURING A PRE-CAS INTERVIEW To have a successful interview, prospective study abroad students should prepare with the following questions. How long is your course and why did you choose that course? Why did you choose that university rather than another University? Why do you choose to study in the UK? How do you explain the gaps in your education/employment history – what were you doing during this time? How do your studies fit into your future career plans? What is your current occupation? Do you intend to work in TIPS ON HOW TO HAVE A SUCCESSFUL INTERVIEW Give precise and detailed answers to explain yourself accurately. Demonstrate you have done sufficient research by avoiding using nonspecific (generic) answers. The answers must be supported with facts and figures. Be as natural as you can. Try to answer all questions honestly and clearly. If there are any technical issues please report them before leaving the interview. Ensure all answers are in English. If you do not understand a question please do ask the interviewer to repeat it. IMPORTANCE OF A GOOD INTERVIEW A successful Pre-Cas Interview means a successful admission. If a Pre-Cas interview is not successful, a student can be denied CAS regardless that they have paid the stipulated deposit and would be unable to go further and process their UK Student Visa. If the stipulated deposit has been paid and the student’s interview is unsuccessful, the university will refund the deposit and withdraw the offer. Contact our counsellors today! for detailed information on how to prepare and have a successful Pre-Cas interview Negxy Concept Limited is a study abroad agency in Lagos with over 5000 successful admissions and visas under her belt.

University Intakes in the UK

UNIVERSITY INTAKES IN THE UK Studying abroad in the UK is one of the best ways for prospective study abroad students to acquire global skills and open up professional opportunities. It is life-changing for many students because it introduces them to new cultures, promotes understanding and enables them to have access to other people and build relationships. Study abroad in the UK and achieve quality education, health benefits, post-study work permit, opportunity to explore other countries, shorter course duration and much more. Expose yourself by studying in the UK and thinking more creatively and flexibly to gain great career fields and achieve your life goal. However, for a student who wants to study abroad in the UK, the first thing they should look into is the university intake, as getting an education in the UK requires strategic planning and without this planning, the student may get rejected and lose all of the benefits. Avoid rush hour and missing out on the university application deadline by beginning your application process early, according to the university intake of your choice. UK universities offer three intakes which are: September Intake January Intake May Intake SEPTEMBER INTAKE This intake is the Primary Intake for universities in the UK, it begins in September and runs till December. September is the most popular intake for international students due to the following reasons: A wide variety of courses are offered. Gives students enough time to familiarize themselves with the environment and other conditions. Greater opportunities for funding such as scholarships. UK has the largest number of internship opportunities. Greater number of applicants The UK has the most competitive compared to other European countries. The application deadline for the September intake is July. Meaning that by July universities in the UK stop accepting applications for students with the intent to study for the September intake. Within the periods of March, April, May and June international students are expected to complete the Admission/ Visa process. JANUARY INTAKE This intake is the Secondary intake for universities in the UK, it begins in January and runs till May, students who missed the September intake will get the chance to apply for the January intake. Students with the intention to go for the January intake should be aware of the following features and benefits. Does not offer as many courses as the September intake A greater chance of getting an offer The number of international applications during this period is less, compared to the September Intake because of the winter climate A student gets more time to work on their application if they miss the September The application deadline for the January intake is September/October. Meaning that by October universities in the UK stop accepting applications for International students with the intent to study for the January Intake. Within the periods of June, July, August and September, students are expected to complete the Admission/ Visa process and await their departure dates for their studies in the UK. MAY INTAKE This intake is the least preferred university intake in the UK, it begins in May and runs till August For students with the intentions to go for their studies during the May intake, they should be aware of the following advantage and disadvantages: It is offered by a few universities It has the least options of courses During this period students prefer to take a spring break than go to classes The number of international applicants is very small Competition is the least intense during the May Intake There is an enhanced chance of getting an offer THE BEST INTAKE FOR YOU A handful of UK universities offer a good number of both undergraduate and postgraduate courses during September Intake, therefore the September intake is undeniably the most popular among international students. However, it will be unwise not to explore your options for January and May intake, especially if you need more time to work on your application. A student who wishes to know the best university intake for their studies in the UK should make a decision based on the following: Past academic performance Test scores The university and preferred course Availability for the course The acceptance rate of the Intakes and university of choice (the rate at which applicants are accepted.).

University Intakes in Ireland

UNIVERSITY INTAKES IN IRELAND If you are looking to study in Europe, Ireland should be one of the countries on your list, as it is among the top 10 study abroad destinations for students and it provides one of the best education systems in the world. There are different university Intakes (Semesters) available in Ireland, knowing these intakes helps you with vital information needed for your studies. Become an international student in Ireland today and gain the following benefits. High-quality education Great career opportunities Safety English Language development Post-study work permit Personal development City life and nature adventures etc However, getting an education in Ireland will be difficult without proper planning and this may result in getting rejected by an Irish university and losing all of these benefits. To study in Ireland, you should be aware of the admission intakes available as this will determine the requirements and the timeline needed to avoid rush hour. Every year, we come across students who begin their admission process when it is getting close to the university application deadline, this is known as the rush hour. These students put their studies at a big risk as the outcome may not always be favourable. Avoid rush hour and begin your application process early, according to the university intake of your choice. If you want to study in Ireland, the first thing you should look into are the university intakes. Irish universities offer two major intakes which are September (Autumn/Fall) Intake January/February (Spring) Intake SEPTEMBER (AUTUMN/FALL) INTAKE The autumn/Fall intake begins in September and runs till December, it is known to be the major intake at universities in Ireland. The application deadline for the fall intake is June/July. This means that by June or July, universities in Ireland stop accepting applications for students with the intent to study for the September (Fall) intake. Students with the intention to go for the fall intake, are therefore advised to begin their application process in January/February before the June/July deadline, so as to avoid rush hour and ensure they are being granted an offer with a smooth process. Within the periods of February, March, April and May, students are expected to complete the Admission/ Visa process. JANUARY/FEBRUARY (SPRING) INTAKE The Spring intake begins late January and runs till May. University intakes during this period are less, compared to the September (Fall) Intake. This intake is not carried out by every Irish University and it does not apply to all courses. Contact our agency to get full information on the courses and universities that carry out the January/February (Spring) intake. The application deadline for the spring intake is September/October. This means that by September or October universities in Ireland stop accepting applications for students with the intent to study for the January/February (Spring) intake. Therefore students with the intention to study during the spring intake, are advised to begin their application process in May/June before the September/October deadline, to avoid rush hour and ensure they are being granted an offer. Within the periods of May, June, July and August, students are expected to complete the Admission/ Visa process and await their departure dates for their studies in Ireland. APRIL INTAKE This intake is not part of the major intakes for Irish Universities as very few universities in Ireland perform it and it is open to very few courses, like business courses. Speak with our counsellors to get full information on the courses and universities that carry out this intake. The application deadline for the spring intake is January/February, therefore students looking to study during the April intake are advised to begin their admission process before the deadline. The application/visa process that you as a prospective study abroad student must complete before successfully going for their studies abroad are: Select the course and the Universities to study: As a prospective study abroad student, your opinion should be based on your interests. The courses you choose should be aligned with your study, career goals and affordability. Register for an English level test, prepare and take the exam: Since universities in Ireland are English-speaking, it is mandatory that an English test is presented, if not during the application process, then during the Visa processing. An English level test result is among the documents to be present during an Irish student visa application. Begin your application process at Negxy Concept Limited: Start your admission process at our agency by providing the necessary documents: International Passport, Degree Certificate, Transcript, Reference letter, Personal Statement, CV and await a response from the school within 48hours-12weeks.

STAGES OF THE ADMISSION PROCESS The different stages of admission processing are as follows: APPLICATION PROCESSING STAGE VISA PROCESSING STAGE APPLICATION PROCESSING STAGE Contact us at Negxy Concept Limited today, to get your application process started. The following are the duration time that each application step takes before admission is granted. Apply for a university in the UK at our agency and await a response from the school within 48 hours – 12 weeks. After the application process, a response will be sent from the university, stating whether he/she has been granted an offer or not. However, there are 2 types of offers A conditional offer An unconditional offer A conditional offer A student that has been granted admission with the condition to provide certain documents or write an English level test will receive a conditional offer. Students with a conditional offer to provide a document like a transcript, degree certificate, Academic reference are expected to get the document available at least within a week. Those students who have been requested to present an English Level Test for their application would have to write either an IELT, a TOEFL or an internal English test and await the result within 14 working days. An unconditional offer A student that has been granted admission with no conditions will receive an unconditional offer. Students in this category can go ahead to request a CAS and apply for a VISA. After an unconditional offer has been granted, payment of Tuition deposit and provision of the bank statement must be made before a student can request for a CAS (Confirmation for Acceptance of studies). Payment of tuition deposit at the bank with a ‘form A’ takes at least 2weeks, also, payment made through wired transfer takes at least 1 week. A bank statement of 28 days should be provided by prospective UK students. However, Providing a statement of account (Bank Statement) might require one to gradually build their account within a few days or weeks in order to meet up with the stipulated amount which should contain the cost of living in the UK and the balance of the tuition fee. After a student has been granted an unconditional offer, made a tuition deposit and provided a 28 days bank statement, the student can go ahead to request CAS (Confirmation for Acceptance of Studies) and fill out the pre CAS form. Some schools in the UK demand an interview before a CAS can be issued, this is called a Pre-CAS interview while some do not. After a student has applied for CAS, the certificate will be granted within 0 – 2 weeks. VISA PROCESSING STAGE Contact us at Negxy Concept Limited today, to get your Visa process started.

This can be said to be one of the most frequent questions asked by clients and prospective study abroad students as they see the question to be tricky and sometimes confusing. This is so because when a client comes to us with a request to study in the UK or Ireland, they come with knowledge or information gotten from either a friend or a family member that is currently studying abroad.
