Tier 4 extension in uk - interview questions

Post by maxflip50 » Sat Sep 06, 2014 5:17 pm

last week, i have been at interview, if you go there, allow more time for walk as it is not easy to find the entrance to the right building, lots of walks from station. Once you are there, there would be a gentlemen, and he is a funny guy, he tells you which room you should go, out of 3 rooms, once you are inside the room, there is a computer and web cam. The interview will be over this webcam with third party. It is not with HO visa officer. But the script of interview will be sent to HO. Headphone will be given, you are on comfortable office chair.

i want share questions:

read the declaration to you, and you confirm it.

- confirm you full name, dob, nationality
- what is the proposed course?
- what's the level?
- what is the awarding body?
- (MEMORIZE IT) confirm all previous visa dates?
- (MEMORIZE IT) confirm all previous studies (name, level, location, period)?
- explain any gaps if any?
- what is the test of english you provided? if needs, quick test in english, (HE SAID BUT i was passed these questions)

- what do you know about your proposed study?
- what subjects it contains, type of test, average time of completion?
- how does it relate to your previous study?
- why did you choose that college?
- what is the location of college?
- how do get there? bus/train
- how much is your course?
- how much you paid?
- how did you paid?
- who sponsored?

- what will do you after completion this course?
- where do you want to work?
- what positions will you work?
- where would settle down in the future?

- Are you working at the moment?
- what do you do on free time?
(tricky)- what was the name of your dissertation you did for masters degree? explain more?

have you understood all my questions and you answered true?
do you have any questions for me?

Interview ended. (all apprx 30 minutes)





But other students was asked following questions too:

Why did you choose this course?

How will your course be assessed?

Why did you choose to study in the UK?

How are you funding your studies?

If you have dependants, what will they be doing while you are studying?

Where do you intend to live in the UK?

How are you planning on travelling to the University?

Your future plans?

What do you plan to do after you finish your course?

If you intend to return home to seek employment, which companies do you hope to apply to?

How is your course relevant to your future plans?

If you intend to stay in the UK for further study, what do you plan to do?

Why do you want to study in the UK?

What are the benefits of studying in the UK compared to your home country or USA/Canada/Australia?

As I am already here, it was easy for me to research about colleges

Which other colleges/universities have you considered?

Where is the University?

Do you know anyone else who has already studied there?

Do you know how large the university is?

Why did you choose this course and how does it relate to your previous study?

How do you explain the gaps in your study history?

How long does your course last?

How is your chosen course assessed?

Do you know what level your course is at?

Did you consider any other course?

Does this course offer any professional recognition?

Are you planning to stay in the UK on completion to study for a higher award?

Are you thinking of transferring to another institution on completion?

What facilities are you expecting at the college/university?

I received 2 letters from HO; 1st letter says they need to arrange an interview as a part of application and the decesion will made up by 21 October 2014 and asked me to waite for the interview request letter that dated on 30 August.

2nd letter received after a 1 week for attend to the interview on last Friday. I hope it should be the same procedure for you as well; how many correspondence letters received from the HO ?

I have to ask you, did you submit any more additional documents before your interview? I have my interview on 8th and since I had submitted my application I have paid more fee to the University, should I submit a receipt for that just incase they ask me how much money I have paid to the uni?

Thanks

Hi, I didn't submit any documents before the interview. I don't think so you need to send that paid slips, you can tell then about your payments while in ur interview ! I felt, they give priority to the Progress of your studies, that means every each course you did and what connection between each other; how s your current programe and about your Uni or college; payment details, who is paying for you and how u get money; what's is your future plan and what is connection with your studies !!! Face it positively; have a chat as you doing with a friend ! It should be Skype interview !!! All the best !!! I'm still pending the outcome of my interview ;x finger cross !!!
