I am not sure about this. But I heard that top-ranked universities have a significant role in getting tier 4 visa. In that case, you are on the safe side because derby got a gold status in TEF. Above all of that home office is the primary decision maker, so we cant be certain about visa decision :( ...
University Of Northampton. My previous Visa application was refused by Canada and Poland. Though I got a fully funded scholarship from Poland but still got refused. That's why I am bit worried, it might affect my tier 4 visa application and I might not get the visa decision within 5 working days.
