2)They are highly organised.
3)D nigerians staff there hate begging.once u are late for appointment after 30 min just don't boarder to come again,the fair ibo man at the gate will not even give u audience.

It isn't a "must" to send your documents to the ZAS office for accreditation "bescheinigung", although most schools will ask of this, in which case then you have to.. That's why you need to check the schools thoroughly and contact them as well for clarification. Some of them haven't in fact updated their websites in this regard. Some requirements were in last year and are out this year.

And no, you aren't generally considered a native English speaker, mainly because you're African and it is assumed you use a different language day in day out in your territory. So unless you have proof of having lived in an English speaking country (UK, US, Canada, Australia..) for over 6months in the last2 years, you have to write an international English-testing exam (toefl, ielts...)and have minimum toefl 80points(ibt)/550points paper-based, /ielts 6.0 - some ask for 6.5 - check with your respective school choices for actual requirements. But let me not get your hopes too high, most Unis will insist on the test as it's an internationally recognized exam on which they can base your true level of proficiency.

An O'Level doesn't often grant you direct access to a German university. You may be required to sit for an aptitude test (in the case that you have extraordinary O'Level grades) or to join "Studienkolleg", a foundation year class before admission to the first year in the university after an exam. However, if you do well in the first semester of the Foundation year, you may also choose to write the test at the end of the semester and gain entrance to the Uni, provided you pass.

gentlesoul01:


Please what are the names of the school u re applying to..

Bloodofjesus:

if i send my documents to the ZAS office for accreditation "bescheinigung,if i want to aaply for studentcollege,do i need to have knowledge of german language ? or sit for exam before get admission to studentcollege


@BloodofJesus

If you really going to study in Germany you better be prepared no shortcut and yes German is important.ZAS is very important if you are applying to any higher institution in munich( university,applied sciences and more) however its better you applied to a university first and they will direct you to ZAS but giving you a letter and form to fill.ZAS will either want to receive confirmation of result from waec only and from waec office or your transcript from a university.ZAS will grade your result and if they are well please they will issued you a letter called bescheid.You then return the letter to the university and you can use the letter to apply anywhere.

After that if you are an undergraduate you will be given a date to come and write aufnahmen prufung and if you pass then you get admission to studien kolleg thereafter you write another festellung prufung before you finally become a real university student.So please with german no play.for aufnahmen prufung german language is compulsory with 3 other subjects depending on your course.

newacca:
Boss,I dey hail ooo. Na d same newacca I want to have more options aside the Canada move. Honestly,if have had more info and knowledge about the German education system and visa for International student,I could have opted for it since. Anyway,God is all knowing,and he knows what's best for us. I have gotten some schools though,I am working on them. But I still need more options as I realize that admission to their Unis in Germany is really competitive.
So,where are you standing now Bro?

futurewise11: Which course do u have in mind?uG or PG? Prefered language?

Rihannaola:

Depends on a number of things, for example, are you planning to study a course taught in English? If yes, then you may not need to learn German at all, or have basic level A1 knowledge. And in that case, you may need proof of your level of knowledge in the English language, ideally "Good". Yet and still, I would advise you atleast take 3 months(A1 level) german courses as it will make life easier for you there.

Accreditation from the ZAS office can take up to 2 months, however, most schools in Bavaria don't need it anymore from foreign students, so you're lucky.

Studienkolleg is for those holding O'level grades not equivalent to direct entry university requirements in Germany, hence needing a foundation year to prepare you for the first uni year.

Bloodofjesus: please do i need to sit for exam before enter Studienkolleg ,because i dont have knowledge in german now
