September 2011, I got accepted to the University of Bristol for an Msc in Economics, Finance and Management. I started to pay my tuition and was revved to go. But ifie's Three-Year Canadian Work Permit didn't come because even though she applied for both of ours, she attached her Passport Page twice instead of the page and then degree. In true Twin spirit, I refused to go to school without her as the Visa had to be redone. I lost what my dad had paid already in my tuition and moved back for NYSC.
September 2012, I got accepted to and paid in full my tuition to Cranfield University for an MSc in Finance and Management. I applied for my visa from Nigeria and did not get it because the UK Embassy felt had not paid my tuition even though I had receipts. I've never been so irritated by a system before. Apparently, you are required to request for an updated CAS after your tuition has been paid. No one, not even the University gives this information. I only know because my friend has been rejected and compared her CAS with her brother. I haven't applied for a Visa from Nigeria in about 5years and I cannot deal with how we are treated. A lot of people I know have also suffered the same fate with this new Tier 4 Visa system.
Sadly, because of the misdemeanor of our citizens in the UK, the rest of us are subjected to suffocating policies. Our fault too because we need to leave the country to be validated as the creme of the crop when we return to work in the country.
I was depressed for a little bit because once more, my plans fell to pieces once and you can't imagine how hard I prayed for this. There's absolutely nothing I didn't do. But I've come accept everything as fate.
Now, I'm applying to schools in Scotland to attend in January and hopefully, this works fine.
Done with getting upset, excuse my language but Shit Happens; you just have to flush it down the toilet. *Kanye Shrug*

Leggy::: yes Hun! I know but UK unis have a deadline for the last day you can register which for me has passed. Makes no sense to me tbh since we have a whole year of schooling and it is a Master's programme. Not the same in North America.
