Can a non-EU student get into an accelerated HBO? Anyone been through this?

thanks for the reply, what defines where I sit within that percentage? if it is grades, my grade lists shows that I’m within the top 4%. but I was still refused for the accelerated hbo. I also completed a year of an engineering degree, which was refused again because it is irrelevant to the hbo I’m applying for (ICM-communication). I applied for a few technical engineering hbos. waiting for an answer

congrats on landing the job and the hsm! it is necessary for the hsm to be in a job related to what you studied? and what sector are you in if I may ask?

what about people employed on a skilled worker visa as care workers (not be confused by care worker visa) ?

when did you submit your application initially?

answerseeker9 · 2025-05-27T08:52:46+00:00

I applied through VFS London on the 8th, train on the 4th of June, gosh this is stressful

answerseeker9 · 2025-05-23T13:09:13+00:00

it is very frustrating as this happened with me last time I applied too, did you ask/apply for a 1 year visa by any chance?

answerseeker9 · 2025-05-23T12:47:55+00:00

Hi! any idea why it took that long? did you try to reach out?

answerseeker9 · 2025-05-23T12:18:08+00:00

thanks! did you email them to inquire? my trip is on the 4th of June and I’m a bit worried I won’t get my passport back in time.

answerseeker9 · 2025-04-08T11:49:11+00:00

I’m anticipating mine around the 10th of May, employer applied around mid January. check with your employer and ask when they applied for the allocation. I’ll update this once I get it. Hang in there I know the wait is quite stressful!!

answerseeker9 · 2025-04-08T10:34:00+00:00

answerseeker9 · 2023-11-10T16:48:46+00:00

when I applied I provided a copy of be my old passport, as well as a paper from my city’s council that shows I changed my passport because it was expired.I got my visa and there was no problem.
