    Applying to a foreign university can be a difficult task, as there are a lot of Common Mistakes Nigerian Students Should Avoid When Applying For UK Universities. The thought of it alone can put most students off. The complexities and long processes involved have made most students seek the help of Study Abroad agents. However, whether you hire an agent or you apply it yourself, there are common mistakes you have to avoid at all costs in order to gain admission. The STUDY ABROAD CONGRESS, a study abroad educational journal, has listed the top common mistakes Nigerian students should avoid when applying to UK universities.

    Common Mistakes Nigerian Students Should Avoid When Applying For UK Universities

    1. Lack of research
    1. Submission of application with missing documents
    1. Mistakes from Your Personal Statement
    1. Submitting an application late
    1. Sending your documents to the wrong emails or websites

    Lack of research

    The first pick on our list of common mistakes Nigerian students should avoid when applying for UK universities is a lack of research. Most Nigerian students don’t do enough research before applying to UK schools. This always affects their application one way or the other, as most schools in the UK change their terms and conditions yearly and may not suit the student well. Also, most schools have more than three campuses; the location of the campus of the choice, of course, may not be favorable to the student.

    Therefore, it is advised for a student to do thorough research before embarking on any UK school application. Most of the information you need is online. Also, check out the students’ rating of the school to know if it will be favorable to you.

    Submission Of Application With Missing Documents

    The second item on our list of common mistakes Nigerian students should avoid when applying for UK universities is missing documents. Most students’ applications have been rejected because of missing documents such as a copy of their passport, personal statements, transcripts, and proof of school qualification documents. We advise you to carefully go through your application or seek a third party to review your application before you send it to avoid such a mistake.

    Mistakes from Your Personal Statement

    The third item on our list of common mistakes Nigerian students should avoid when applying for UK universities is a personal statement. This is the only ticket you have to sell yourself and state the reasons you want to study at the university. A lack of an inspiring and good personal statement can lead to application rejection.

    Every good personal statement should include the following basic outlines: why you want to study at that UK university rather than another; how interested and passionate you are in your chosen course; mention your extracurricular activities; avoid spelling and grammatical errors. However, it would be more beneficial if a professional reviewed it before submission to help identify some of the errors and guide you.

    Submitting an application late

    This is the 4th on our list of common mistakes Nigerian students should avoid when applying for UK universities. Most universities in the UK monitor when students submit their applications and sometimes this can factor into the decision-making process if your application will be accepted or not. Leaving your application or submitting your application at the last minute can reflect poorly on you as a student or show that the university was your last choice since you applied late. Submitting early greatly assists you in resolving any issues with your application, particularly paperwork, that may arise.

    Sending Your Documents To The Wrong Emails Or Websites

    The last pick on our list of common mistakes Nigerian students should avoid when applying for UK universities is sending to wrong emails or addresses. Most Nigerian students make the mistake of sending their applications to the wrong email addresses or putting the wrong address on their application documents. Before you send out your application, it is advised that you carefully go through the application to avoid such a mistake. Also, check the email address well to make sure it is the correct address. Last but not least, always follow up with the university to make sure they received your mail.

    Frequent Asked Questions About Common Mistakes Nigerian Students Should Avoid When Applying For UK Universities

    What are the requirements to study in the UK from Nigeria?
