Visa problem for international students whos going for clearing

Hi all,

I have been provisionally accepted to the university of edinburgh-

However, considering that the semester starts since the 14th Sept, I need to get my VISA as soon as possible so that i can book the plane ticket and get everything sorted.

I applied to Edinburgh through clearing as soon as it was available yesterday, but apparently saturday is not their working hour.

How am i supposed to get the VISA letter from the university in like 1 day?

Could they possibly send me an electronically signed VISA letter?

I am getting super nervous right now -_-;

I am not totally sure, but I don't think the visa office will accept electronic copies that you've printed off - they require originals of everything, as far as I know.

You could have the university courier the letter to you (you could offer to pay for FedEx or something).

Good luck - I hope it works out.

do you need a copy of it or the actual thing? dunno what the visa letter is, im assuming its giving you permission to enter the country for the length of the course.

Get them to send it today and you'll receive in the next few days?

and do what the above says in paying for it from a proper company. otherwise god knows where it might end up.
They can't send it to you electronically AFAIK.

However, if the letter doesn't come in time, you could go to the British embassy or consulate in your country and ask for advice.

Here's the website for the UK embassy in Hanoi: http://ukinvietnam.fco.gov.uk/en/
