LLM Discussion Board

Okay...it looks like the transcript is required but my only question is this,first, how do i get the reference letters i submitted, which were used for my assessment. They were sealed n posted directly to the school. how can i present this at the embassy?

It might be better to leave it out n d visa letter. cos the process of retreiving it might be long. one of my referees has relocated out of the country with his family.
I'm of the view that we find out precisely from someone at ukba. how to get to them is the next thing. its always easier at exhibitions.
Its best to deal with these little details before applying.

received my visa letter and lets just say, my fears were affirmed by it. the letter provides that i was accessed by certificates, transcipts as well as 2 references. the agency requires that student's provide each document as stipulated in ones visa letter.

quare: how do we reconcile all these without leavin out a vital document?

Try to get in touch with your school and find out if they can forward scanned copies of the documents to you via e-mail.

temitope..thing is, i sent down certificate as well as my transcript, tho, i am yet to receive the visa letter, but i believe that i was assessed on both, hence my worries.
also av u applied for ur visa, if so, did u send ur original certificate?

I also included my transcript in my application but this was not listed. I am yet to apply, cant apply till 3 months to the start date of my programme. Do you know anyone who has applied yet.

Hi temitope, guess we re in the boat, I also submitted both after passing thru thick and thin to get my transcript but only my certificate was listed in my letter. i have howeva applied for another transcript just incase i need it to apply in june for an entry clearance., its currently beign processed , my institution is currently making me pass thru the bureaucratic process again for a second copy.
wat do you think? do you think its necessary submitting it to the embassy wen its not listed in the visa letter?

I will apply in June as well! the sooner the better,,,but just after i pay the university fees because that was also a condition,,u have to pay the total amount or just part of your fees. Remember you need a receipt issued by university confirming this payment. And the bank statement should no be dated more than 28 days from the date you are going to apply for the visa
good luck :)

MAJDA 03:

With a student visa you can work only 20 works per week (part-time) and only during vacations you can work full-time.
You cannot work after you complete the course unless you work at the STUDENT'S UNION. You can also work ONLY if the work placement is part of your course and if the work placement is an assessed part of the course.
Here its what it says literally about any other type of work in the UK with an adult student visa: (PAGE 13, POINT 54-63)

TYPES OF STUDY AND WORK PLACEMENTS

Student union sabbatical officers
54. A student union sabbatical job is a full-time, salaried, elected executed union position. You may take this job during your studies or in the academic year inmediately after you graduated.
55. If you take the job while you still have time left in your permission to stay as an adult student, your approved education provider must let us know as they are responsible for you until your permission to stay runs out.
56. If you want to do the job at the end of your course, AND YOU HAVE NO MORE TIME LEFT IN YOUR PERMISSION TO STAY AS A STUDENT, you must apply again and emet the requirements of the category.
57. A sabbatical job is normally for one academic year and you may be given permission to stay as an adult student to cover this time. If you are re-elected after one year, you will have to apply again. You can only have the job for a maximum of two years.

WORK PLACEMENTS
61. You will be allowed to do a work placement as a part of your course of study, as long as the work placement is an assessed part of the course and the course is at an acceptable level for adult of child students.
The work placements must be no more than 50% of the lenght of the course in the UK. An example is if a course is two years long and the first year of the course involves full-time study, with the last year in a work placement.

HOPE THIS HELPS! BUT WELL NO, YOU CANNOT WORK AFTER YOU GRADUATE WITH THE STUDENT VISA UNLESS YOU WORK AT THE STUDENT UNION OF IF THE WORK PLACEMENT ITS AN ASSESSED PART OF YOUR COURSE OF STUDY. IF THE TIME LEFT ON YOUR STUDENT VISA HAS PASSED YOU HAVE TO APPLY FOR THE VISA AGAIN.
