I would just like to take a moment to mention here that IT IS NOT EASY TO GET A STUDENT VISA TO THE UK. URGH. There is probably some website out there that walks you through every step and includes a timeline of exactly when you should be jumping through which hoop, much like really organized wedding planning - and if there isn't, there should be. Granted, me getting into grad school in England is on a much closer par to, well, not a Vegas hitching, but at least a last-minute elopement with delusions of the full three-ring circus extravaganza.
Evidently, I have to present a letter I can only receive after paying a deposit and sending in a notarized transcript of an interview with the local police department, along with that original affirmation of good conduct, yet another school transcript, evidence that the full price of a couple of VERY nice cars has been living in my bank account for at least a month; and then only when I've made an appointment to present that letter/plus application/plus full physical and "biometrics" during the full moon and following a ritual rain dance. The problem? I still haven't gotten that letter. I did what I was supposed to to get it (I didn't know a body cavity search would be part of that "good conduct" interview) and the letter I got I thought was right turned out to be the opposite of. (Insert own dating joke here.)
On the plus side, the rain dance seemed to be a success.
