"No body talks about how draining and stressful Visa Application processes are.. may God see everyone through .. let him ask to defer the admission to the next intake.. that will help."

"I had same issue with Ashton University, UKVI I did same to me for an MRes Program, I was not denied rather they didn't make a decision up until the Resumtion deadline and the school asked me to withdraw my application, school refunded my deposit of 5000pounds but till date UKVI has not refunded my Visa Application and IHS fees, Nigerians are suffering because the Government is dead, the UK Government is exploiting Nigerians and our government is docile."
@AlinkoGh said:
"It is the policy of most of the UK universities that your deposit will not be refunded if the applicant fails the UKVI credibility interview. So I don’t think he will get his money back. It has even happened to my friends who applied to University of Hull and failed the ukvi credibility interview."
@Krz said:
"If it’s university of hull… it’s stated that the £4000 deposits is non refundable… so sorry abt that."
