Yes, I would advise you take the course, but you've got to be hardworking, you have to learn German to get admitted/invite to write the exam, duration is two semesters and youd write entrance exam on German and mathematics or just German depending on the faculty you'd like to study later. Its called Studienkolleg you can find more information at Studienkollegs.de Fustinachichi: please has anyone here done any international foundation year in Germany?(for those that are using just leaving school certificates)....they sent me an email saying its really good for international students who dont know much about Germany and who haven't been in education for a while...and the more i read up on it, the more i really like it... but my question is at the end of the year will i come back to Nigeria to go through the tedious visa application process if i want to go on to my degree?
oh they also said they will give me scholarship for my first year degree(this is next year)
pls does anyone know anything about it? |

Yeah, I'm sure it won't even take long as we've seen in this girl's case Lammydamsel:
In addition, to what someone mentioned, the Consulate can also issue denial. A friend of mine was rejected without forwarding his documents to the ailien office. He had to mail his school who later mailed the foreign office and they said his documents were not forwarded initially. |

Okay, she works bro, I'm not doubting you bro, but the Allien office shouldn't have issued SL to her in the first place, the girl just dey think �, she dey think say witches don enter her matter donkafor: Last time I checked, a reverend sister is not qualified to issue SL. Reverend sisters here don't even have personal account numbers. My last discussion with a reverend sister of Immaculate Heart here in München, she told me that they don't have personal accounts both in München and Nigeria.
It's a congregation and they use general account for everybody. So, having a general account didn't qualify her to issue SL.
Note: This information is based on the above mentioned congregation.
Also, people should make effort to read comments on SL. It's in German but try to translate.. For example, you should see word like "Stadium" on it to ensure its for study and not just visit.... etc
May we all succeed in Deutschland. ![grin](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/grin.png) |

I cannot answer for them, but it's understandable, your spouse can stand for you. I'm only trying to give hint, and that it seems buying letter or just meeting anybody isn't really welcomed anymore. positiveagenda:
Thanks ibnkokumo for sharing this explanation. I appreciate but what if the sponsorship letter is from your spouse? Hope it will be granted without any hitch. I was thinking of applying for a reunion but finally got an admission for summer. Cheers. |

Hallo, long time, I've not been active in this thread. So I'm just here to caution those paying huge for sponsorship letter (Verpflicherklärungen)
Having a sponsorship letter isn't an assurance you'll get a Visa. I have two cases of refusal here, they both used sponsorship letter (Verpflicherklärungen).
This friend of mine got her sponsorship letter from a reverend sister and yet, she was refused, I was also informed the reverend sister has a high profile, is a citizen, also a nurse and well connected in Germany.
For your sponsor to be qualified to give you the letter is not the issue sometimes, your relationship with the person also matters, because without strong ties with the reverend sister for example, the Applicant might become a liability, the Allien office considers all these in forming a decision.
Most times, if the person is a relative, it's 50/50 and if it's non relative, it can be 30/70
Also, The German Embassy only have more authority on visiting and tourist visa. Long term stay like family re union and student visa applications approval or rejection is decided directly by the Homeland / Allien office in Germany.
The letter she received states that;
"Your means of subsistence in Germany is not ensured"
Only God knows what the Allien Authority have seen that made them say this.
And God knows best.
Please, find a copy of the full letter below.
Also, you need not to show that you're desperate, I've heard the case of a boy who used two sponsorship letters and he was refused on the basis that he's desperate.
I'd love to suggest that we think well before taking risks that'll later cost us a lot.
I heard having being refused once also has its implications on further application, let's do things right.
Thank you. 3 Likes 1 Share

Hallo alle zussamen. The consulate have asked me to send a letter of Withdrawal, signed, so that I can be mailed my original documents, they sounded nice to me. So bis Wintersemester 2018 In Sha Allaah. I have learned a lot through this platform and I have met friends who have been very supportive. May God reward you all abundantly. I heard it is better to withdraw than to get rejected, guess being rejected has a negative effect, a friend told me a little " ![grin](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/grin.png) " sign is written at the back or somewhere on Visa page. Below is the message I got from the Consulate: Dear Sir,
thank you for the update.
Unfortunately you will have to re-apply as we do not keep the application for the next semester.
Please send me a withdrawal letter (signed possible as an email attachment), so I can send back the Original documents to you.
Sincerely yours,

Will the embassy still issue Visa even after enrollment deadline or the exam one is going to write has passed? Some are asking me to request more time, If I do, I'll miss my exam, I believe the embassy works with the date on the admission letter, the best option I've seen so far is to tell them I will use the application for Winter semester. What do you all think? Thanks |

Yea metabolite1 has said it all to differ means to shift... And about not doing interview again yea if you have done your interview before and couldn't meet up because of some reason and if you are lucky enough not to get a rejection then you can mail the embassy why you would like to differ everything to the next coming semester. And the visa application would still be valid upon presentation of your new admission letter to the embassy. IstandToBeCorrected.. Shalom |

Thanks brother. My school don't do deferment stuff, I have to re-apply, application opens next month 1st March for Winter semester, I will get my admission letter at least in three weeks after application. I haven't been rejected yet, I've been asked to fund before 19th Feb, I cannot meet up, but it'll be funded by month end/march. Should I inform the embassy that I want to defer? so that they'll be aware and not reject me, thanks. Metabolite01:
To defer means to shift (or lemme say postpone or carry) ur current admission to a later semester (most times to the nxt semester).
Yes, if u defer, a new admission letter for d nxt semester will be sent to you, which makes ur current admission letter invalid, thereby making you no longer fit/qualified to go for the present/current semester visa application interview.
Depending on ur school, but most schools will send ur new admission letter almost immediately (couple of days or weeks depending on the school policies). Other schools may send it at a later time (a bit late) but definitely quicker and faster than those applying for a fresh admission.
If ur new admission letter comes early enough, u can use it to apply to d embassy immediately the embassy opens for dat semester visa application, which gives you an upper hand to get ur visa early enough. What I really dnt know of or what I'm not too certain of nw is if it is appropriate or acceptable to use ur let's say winter admission letter to apply for visa during summer visa application period, and vice-versa. Just do more findings on dat, although I "think" its possible. 1 Like |
