WHILE YOU WAIT FOR YOUR VISA
BANK ACCOUNT
You can open an account with the online bank Revolut before you arrive in the UK and start using your card as soon as you land in the UK.
MOVING INTO ACCOMMODATION
MESCyT will pay for your housing, which they will pay directly to the university. You do not need to pay a deposit fee.
You will not need to apply to a residence hall because you will be assigned a specific room. The accommodation contract will last for 50 weeks and will not be renewed after that date. You will receive an accommodation contract to sign and return once your scholarship has been confirmed by the Ministry.
Move in date this year is Monday 15th September.

I am still amazed and beyond happy that I was awarded the MESCyT scholarship. I understand that it is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and I am ready to take full advantage of it.
