Frequently asked questions

What is the 28-day bank statement rule for UK visas?

For a UK student visa, maintenance funds must be held continuously for a minimum of 28 consecutive days, and the closing balance must never fall below the required tuition-and-maintenance threshold at any point in that period.

Does WAEC or NECO qualify me for a UK university?

WAEC/NECO results are accepted directly for many foundation and undergraduate routes. Degree-level entry may require A-levels, a foundation year, or a recognised diploma.
