People who are troubled are those who have no experience of German waka.

Last winter, the embassy website stated by September that dates were no longer available. We all knew wot happened- date flowed till october ending.(the wise ones did wot was suggested by experts---changing of start date to a later date )

This summer, it is unfortunate that it started early. Some of us booked date since october and put FEBRUARY as start date. (The embassy knws most are lies because schools start by April) even without AL.

Now a new law is passed to check all these abuse and we are agitating and claiming right for a petition. We have to calm down brothers!! Most people shouting do not have Admissions yet.

The solution is to be patient and wait. If u have booked already, date surely will drop. If u r yet to book, be wise and use a later start date like April or May.( ur date will come early Feb.)
From reports, given out date are still Dec-Jan. Feb, March and April still dey.

Hope and prayer dey work for those who think all is Logic and fact.

Nigerians let us learn patience!!!!!
Thanks

You just said everything I wanted to say but was too lazy to type. Especially the bolded parts. Thank you jare.

Thank you! I've applied for studenwerk and I'm also searching on Facebook. Any other recommendation??
Please, search it is not easy to get accommodation here in Magdeburg. If you are lucky you might get from Studentenwerk fast, but most new students do rent private houses or stay in a temporary place.

Good day , please how did you go about getting accommodations on campus, I was also given admissions to study the same course.
Thanks in advance
I didn't get accommodation on campus. I was placed on an awaiting list, which I will still get in a few months' time. When I arrived in Magdeburg, I stayed with someone for 2 months(we were both sharing the bills) and I later got an apartment in the 3rd month. You might be lucky to get an apartment with the Studentenwerk early but also look for an alternative like staying with someone temporarily. If I may ask, have you applied for an apartment with Studentenwerk.

I wouldn't like to go there pay flight, rent a hotel room then at the end after paying the visa fee I get turned back......

Should I honour the invitation or I should join the waiting crew.

I also intend to go there with request to withdraw my BA money.

I want to close the account

If you know you won't attend the interview, please cancel now so someone else can get the slot. If you cancel late, you will just waste a precious slot and even God will be angry with you.

Hi guys.i got admission for someone .the letter was sent electronically and termed acceptance letter.

Is it the same as admission letter or the admission letter will be mailed. Also how can I book visa interview for the person and also open block fund . Apart from block fund and the admission letter and international passport what other documents does he need to take with him to the embassy for visa interview. The school resumes on 3rd march 2020

This is not true. Nigerian students in Germany do not even have the largest population from Africa. As of winter 2018 we were only about 1,900 , even cameroonian and Ghanaian students are more than twice our population. Thd largest population of foreign students is from China with over 32,000 students, then Russia and Austria. India had about 14,000 students. There is no hidden agenda in place to reduce foreign students. In fact there are new laws set in place to ease immigration for highly educated/skilled workers from 3rd world countries. These laws would take effect from January 1 2020. The laws also make provision for the foreign students as well.

See this link https://www.studying-in-germany.org/germany-international-student-statistics/

The Nigerian German consulate is having some temporary issues that would soon be rectified. One thing we could do is to send a complaint (RESPRCTFULLY) to the Berlin headquarters https://www.auswaertiges-amt.de/en/aamt/zugastimaa/buergerservice.
Lay our concerns about how flawed and inefficient the current online booking system is , and recommend that the system should be modified to make provision for applicants to upload their admission letters as well as sponsorship letters/funded blocked account documents/scholarship before appointment dates can be set. That way it would ensure that only true and eligible applicants can get appointment dates. Also tell them that the embassy seems to be inactive at the moment.

I will suggest you write to the embassy and explain to them your reasons for booking Cat A. Find out from them if you can honor the appointment or to cancel it. My one cent.

There is nothing like writing to them, it's clearly stated in the booking confirmation email

With a wrongly booked visa category you will not get access to the visa section.

If you discover that you have provided incorrect and / or incomplete information, please cancel your registration and register again.



So if you booked incorrect Cat, the right thing to do is to cancel and rebook. That is why the option is there

We all know the right thing to do, but sometimes we think we can bend the rules then later we start complaining why they treat Nigerians differently. It’s just sad
