Membership allows students to place as many applications as they wish at no extra cost (note max 3 applications at any one time).
Membership fees are only paid once.
Membership fees are strictly non-refundable.
All applications are vetted and checked and sent to institution with recommendations.

Visa Fees (UK)
Visa protocol fees are now included in the membership fees. This does not include the application fees charged by UK visa authorities (approx 68,000 naira nigeria/250,000cfa Cameroon / 650 cedis Ghana).
Only members can use our visa service however we do offer a new "no win no fee service" which still requires membership but allows students to use our protocol service to place an application to partners we are not contracted to.
Visa service is not compulsory for members but is strongly advised.
If visa application is refused a student can resubmit papers at no extra cost as many times as they wish (UK visa application fees still apply).
If visa application is refused global education will request a review with uk visas should it be deemed necessary after viewing reasons for refusal. This will be at no extra cost to student.

Deposits/refunds and application fees
United kingdom
All institutions require a deposit payment towards fees ranging from £1000 to full fees.. Global education advises that students/sponsors pay all fees if possible to increase chances of securing visa.
Some institutions charge application fees as part of the application process these are deducted from tuition fees if a visa refused and a refund request is made.
All fees should be paid direct to institution. Under no circumstances should a member hand over fees to office staff.
Refunds are only made on request. These usually take between 8-12 weeks depending on the institution but can take longer.
Refunds will only be made to the account the money was originally transferred from unless a specific written request is made to another account.
If a student is refused a visa a copy of the refusal notice is required to expedite the refund.
Refunds are subject to application fee charges/admin charges etc at the discretion of the institute concerned.
If Global are refunding the monies we are subject to bank charges plus service charges of approx £75 per transaction.
Global education endeavours to help members as much as possible in securing refunds but we are at the mercy of institutions financial rules and therefore patience is requested.

Refunds (other countries)

Refunds are made on written request.
Global education incurs charges on visa registration fees so any refunds made will be less these charges.
Refunds take 8-12 weeks on receipt of written request and patience is urged on behalf of members.
All fees for visa applications should be paid direct to global uk accounts in dollars, pounds or euros. (bank details on request to members) under no circumstances should members pay visa or tuition fees to office staff other than LAGOS head office.

Note: any verbal or written threats made to Global staff will mean a students membership is automatically terminated. We endeavour to help all members but we are subject to local rules and regulations which can lead to delays and disruptions in our services.

Also note any student who witholds information and lies on UK visa applications and subsequently refused a visa for such reasons will have membership immeditaley terminated. Such students will receive a mandatory 10 year UK visa ban. Students may also not receive any refunds from institutions.
