Question 1

What does the World Study Africa blog cover?

Accepted Answer

Our blog covers visa-rule changes, scholarship deadlines and openings, honest step-by-step how-to guides, and country updates for African students studying in Europe. We post when something actually changes — a fee rise, a new proof-of-funds amount, a deadline — rather than recycling generic tips, and we date and source every figure.

Question 2

How often is the blog updated?

Accepted Answer

We publish when the rules change, not on a fixed schedule. Student-visa fees, proof-of-funds amounts and scholarship deadlines move several times a year, so the blog is updated whenever there's something real and useful to report. Following our WhatsApp or email updates means you hear about changes on the day.

Question 3

Are the figures in your blog posts accurate?

Accepted Answer

We date every post and link each figure — visa fees, blocked-account amounts, deadlines — to its official source, so you can verify it yourself. Because these numbers change, always confirm against the embassy, university or scholarship site before you act, and check the post's last updated date.

Question 4

Can I get blog updates by WhatsApp or email?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You can join our WhatsApp updates for short, occasional alerts when a rule affecting your country changes, or subscribe to the monthly email newsletter for a round-up of new posts and deadlines. Both are free, and you can unsubscribe at any time.

Question 5

Do you guarantee visa approval or scholarship selection?

Accepted Answer

No — and you should distrust anyone who does. A visa is decided by an embassy and a scholarship by a selection panel, not by an agent. What we do is keep you current on the rules, help you build a strong, genuine application, and tell you the honest odds for your country and course.
