    • @faridahtheexplorer
      @faridahtheexplorer  3 роки тому

      @@Cloutstuff If you speak to the landlord or agent about it, yes, two people can share a room. Also, some rooms are advertised as shared rooms from the start. You risk sharing with a stranger though if you don't have someone you want to share with already. I did that twice and it was pretty alright.
      For the room in this video, my friend and I asked the agent if we could share and he agreed, with a bit of pleading 😅 Easier, because he is also from Nigeria

    Hmmm Farida, take it from someone that had the experience, it is very difficult. I see a lot of students from Nigeria working hard to pay the fees and they can’t balance studying and working at the same time. Some universities even advise some students to quit. I know a number of people it happened to . I have seen students running from pillar to post trying to raise money. UK is a very expensive country. Not everyone has the resilience and mental capacity to juggle both.

    • @faridahtheexplorer
      @faridahtheexplorer  2 роки тому

      Good question! Probably would have helped in terms of earning more money, but you have to consider the time required too, alongside studying at uni. I tried to learn tailoring in Nigeria but just couldn't. Hairdressing is a good skill to have in the UK, which I do, but never really used it. Healthcare jobs on average pay minimum wage and sometimes a lil bit over. I had some experience in care from Nigeria, and had an opportunity to work as a carer in the UK, but preferred the flexibility I had working for the agency and being able to spend time on other activities. I wouldn't say no or yes, cos I never explored it.

      For me, I had lectures and seminars two to three days per week. By the final year of an undergraduate degree, it becomes four to five days for some students depending on the course. You can easily work 20 hours during the weekdays after uni and have weekends 'off' to study. Another way to work 20 hours easily is to try to complete your uni work ( studying and doing essays and assignments etc) on weekdays and work on Saturday and Sunday.

      It is unlikely that your visa will be rejected just because of gaps in your education. Key things are to be able to explain why you have gaps in your education and why you want to return to university after a gap. Speak to your uni about this as they would offer the best advice here.
      P.s: this is not immigration advice. Only an opinion
