Still waiting for my student visa, I’m on day 14th . When should I expect now? When can I expect my delay email?

Produced the biometrics on July 30 have you gotten any updates regarding your visa back?

Currently, I’m on the 14th day so it’s either gonna come today or it’s gonna come tomorrow or it’s gonna be delayed.

For late visas, do you know usually what time it comes out? Like when does the Home office close in the UK?

Tittle. It says "You are currently not an enrolled student according to your student record".

What do I do?

Seeking Alexander Fleming accommodation, preferably Band A at manor park. I have cathedral Court 1b at the stag campus. Anyone down to trade please let me know.

1.When did you do your biometrics?

2. How long has its been?

3. Have you gotten a delay email or any notification from them after doing biometrics?

And for any canadians that have gotten their visa did it take longer or less then the 3 weeks?

Anyone hear back who also did it on a similar date?

Starting to stress out because the 3 weeks deadline is fast approaching.

At this point in time, I just wanna make sure they actually even received my visa application.

So is there anyway that we can track the Visa progress or like if they have actually received it?

Usually is it in the morning? afternoon or night?

So I finished my biometrics on Thursday July 30th. They said after biometrics it should take about 15 days to get back ur result. For anyone has it taken longer without them asking for additional documents?

I’m from Canada idunno if any other Canadians out here that can share their story:

So there’s a really good deal at Best Buy right now. It originally ended on August 13, but they extended the sale until September 3.

The item I’m looking at is currently sold out online and at the stores near me. For anyone who works at Best Buy or shops there regularly, when something sells out during a promotion like this, is it common to see availability pop back up again and do u know usually when?

I’m basically trying to figure out whether it’s worth checking the site regularly over the next couple of weeks or if I should start looking for another option.

Hello everyone,

I'm going to be starting this sept 2026. I'm just wondering when do we get our student account and email? Does online registration differ for internationals?

So I’m gonna be transitioning from Windows to iOS. Used windows my entire life btw.

Best Buy right now has a killer deal for the new 2025 MacBook Air. The 215 is 1.1 K Canadian while the 512 SSD is 1.3 K Canadian.

Traditionally, I’ve always went with the 512 SSD, even though I’ve never remotely come close to using it for my laptop with windows.

However, I need this laptop to last me four years plus in medical school. So I don’t want to keep out right now. I want something that will essentially last me.

I’ve heard that iOS, processes, RAM, and storage better than Windows. The 215 one is ideally within my budget, but I feel like if I’m going to buy a MacBook Air anyways I might as well buy something that I wouldn’t be regretting. Because I’m not gonna be able to buy it again for a while.

So for people who have had experience with the 512 GBSSD and the 215 GBSSD what was your experience with both do you think 215 is enough? I mostly just need this for basic apps like Discord Spotify iMessage. Maybe one or two heavier apps, but besides that nothing else.

I heard previously it was either the 20th or 28th from a few people. If anyone remembers when we get our student account please I would love to know. I need access to it to complete my registration and get a letter for it to show proof of enrollment.

I'm an international so im not sure if its different for us.

I just got my accommodation today. I want to switch rooms. Although i got my 2nd choice I was hoping that I might still be able to get into my top.

Apprently, you can switch rooms. Anyone gone through this experience, how successful is it? I want to get into the shared accommodation type c at stag hill. Is this a popular choice?

Can you change rooms even after giving a deposit for you previous room?

They had a pretty good deal: $235 CAD, or about $288 CAD after tax. I bought them but haven’t opened them yet.

I bought them for university, which I’ll be starting in September 2026. But I heard you either get one or two years of Apple warranty, and that the warranty starts as soon as you connect the AirPods to your phone or other device.

Since I mainly bought them for school, I don’t really want to start the warranty early if I’m not going to be using them much until September.

Would it make sense to just leave them sealed until then or should I just start using them already even if it means my warranty starts? Also, does anyone know exactly when the Apple warranty starts and how long it lasts? People have said 2 years, but when i bought them they didnt mention anything about warranty. But others have said here that its apprently 2 years

Incoming intl student at Surrey this fall 2026!!

Just a few questions I was hoping that can be answered:

1. Can we have a coffee machine in our rooms?
2. What’s the walking distance between manor campus and stag hill main campus?
3. Is the accommodations air conditioned? If not can we bring fans? We don’t pay for electricity right?

Lastly, is there any secure storage space in accommodations? Like I’m going to have my passport and documents and things like that. Is there a safe in the rooms? Or a place where can store these things.

Sorry I lied, also do we have space to put our luggage?

I’ll be living in shared accommodation, so strong noise cancellation is important to help me focus while studying. I’m also looking for something reliable that can last throughout my four year medical degree.

I’ll be commuting regularly and using them every day on the bus, while studying, and around my accommodation. Basically, I need a dependable workhorse. Which AirPods would you recommend?

From what I understand, medical school in the UK is normally five years, while Graduate Entry Medicine is four years. I’m from Canada, where medical school is usually four years, so I was curious about what makes a four-year GEM program different than that of a five-year program, aside from the shorter duration obviously lol?

Hi everyone,

I’m an incoming first-year international student at the University of Surrey, and I have two questions about registration.

From what I understand, there is an online registration process that opens in August. This is when we receive access to our student account and online modules. After that, there is an in-person registration process where our identity and documents are checked. Is that correct?

My two main questions are:

1. When has online registration opened in previous years? Does it usually open in early, mid, or late August?
2. After completing online registration, can we immediately request an official proof of registration or enrolment letter?

I need the letter for a student loan application, so I’m currently waiting for registration to open.

If anyone can help answer either of these questions, I’d really appreciate it. Thanks!

I ended up paying for this service, what I understand is that I don't have to upload my documents online. I can just give it to them there and they will do it for me? This is my expectation when I paid for this service.

Is this correct? Is so, then I would not need to upload anything online before the appointment?
