Hello!

I have got a conditional acceptance letter from the university and I have yet to apply for the student visa.
Can I apply for the visa with this letter or should I first get an unconditional letter first? I can maybe save 15 days if I can apply with the conditional letter as the requested GRE scores will take around 15 days to deliver, the GRE score is the condition in the letter.
The University checklist does mention "Unconditional offer letter" but some have said that you can apply with a conditional.

Any expert help please?

Condition has to be definitely met at the time of Visa application.

I've applied with conditional offer. My condition was that I had to obtain certain minimum grades and submit degree certificates. But I only get all that on the 13th of August. If i had waited until then, then I defo wouldn't get the study permit in time to make it for the fall semester. My conditional offer said it could be used to apply for study permit so I went ahead and applied

Makes sense ...My condition was to have IELTS score of overall 6 and minimum 5.5 and my consultant advised that we can apply only when
we have IELTS score ready.
 
I'm in the same boat. I applied with a conditional offer as by the time I get the unconditional offer in august it will be too late. I got conflicting advice on this. Some people told me I could apply with conditional offer and then submit my unconditional offer when I get it. Some people told me I wouldn't be allowed to do that. The conditional offer says I can use it for immigration. I would love to know the answer to this but I guess I'll just have to find out.

What are the conditions on your offer letter?
 
I myself did not apply with the conditional one. The condition in my acceptance letter was to pay the first semester fee for your seat confirmation. I paid the fee and included the semester fee receipt with that acceptance letter.
 
I was told by a viable source that the embassy would start the process of the application with the conditional letter and will allow you to submit the unconditional letter once you get it.
Then they will process the study permit once they have the unconditional letter.
But keep getting conflicting responses in this forum so I guess I'll just find out as my application is already submitted.
I had to because if I waited I would not get the study permit on time.
 
you should apply with an unconditional letter if possible. better to be safe then sorry is what i say!
visa rejection will look bad and then there are additional steps you will have to take explaining why it got rejected.
just wait it out if you can
good luck!
