Dude this is not about German vs the UK, this is about the misleading info that studying in Germany is free

deebsman1:

please give us more info, it will be appreciated.

dmitroika:



Yeah but the 8000€ you put in a blocked account is yours to spend when you get to germany, and uf you get a job here you wont need to even touch it, about the health insurance we pay 80€ monthly, if you think that's not fair then tell that to my indian class mate that fell sick and needed a surgery that will normally cost him above 75,000€, health insurance paid for it and even call to check if he's feeling better. Germany have a reputation for best medical services, na air ambulance dem use pick this guy for his apartment when his friends called for ambulance.
Plus, after studies you are given a 18 months visa to get a job, if you do you will be given permernent residence. If you really came to study and passed then getting a job is never a problem. People get offers here before finishing their final thesis. What more can a foreign student ask for?

futurewise11:
Be precise,info about what?

lighternote:
Yes sir. One of the greatest lessons I've learnt in life is that I still have a lot to learn.
I dumped my UK Adm and requested for the refund of my money before it's too late. I'm glad where I am today. If u have the luxury of choice, run away from UK unis. Selfish people

As a current student in germany,let me give a first hand experience.

Studying in germany is cheap because you psy between 50-200 euro per semester(i e 40k max) per semester.

Insurance is 40 euro for private and 81 euro for public insurance(aok or dhk).i recommend public insurance because its benefit otweigh the cost.

Jobwise i love germany.if you have the capacity to work, its not difficult to get one if you are not the lazy type.expecially in the summer. E.g you can work in daimler, bosch,maggi,posche,deutsche post , hugo boss ,amazon and get averagely 4000 euro for the 3 month summer job.but german work are not for lazy people but they are easy to get.also theres a lot of 450 euro mini job whi h are tax free,with these u can leave and survive all your monthly expenses.
The 8040 euro in your in your block account is still your money but you can only with withraw 670 monthly.

Presently theres influx of american student in my school and when you ask them why they mostly pinpoint FREE EDUCATION.

The only challenge you might have here is language barrier,because its not every body that speak english but bro you will survive.

After your studies you have 18month to look for a job that equate the level of ur academic qualification to get resident permit. Beleive alot of people get it especially guy in IT,medicine etc,for those in business or economics program with b1 level of german you can get the job as well.

The only obstacle here is the LANGUAGE

Uk is also a nice contry due to easy admission and language is not a barrier but the Cost is too outrageuos for an average nigerian.paying averagely 1,800,000 pay annum as school fees and after pay this for 3 years(barchelor) you chased them out of your country is exploidatory in my own opinion. The truth is uk is overcrowded and they are broke (in my opinion) thats why there policy is anti immigrant.

Finally if you dont want to stay back and your family or sponsorer are well to do uk is your best choice,for husler,average guy,am tired of 9ja who want to stay back in my opinion germany is sweet.study hard,learn the language everything will flow...

Danke schön

Elxandre:

Sounds so nice.
please what exams are needed for entry into German universities as a Nigerian.?

And how about the talked about racism.?

thanks.

Admission generally process and requirement varies from school to school,but you can get admission here without toefl/ielts.

You can check daad.de for more info or be precise with your prospective program.

My brother racism is everywhere nigeria,usa,canada but the fact is over here in germany i have never been racially abused here. Guess what the rascim stunt are always from foriegners like youafricans,fake oyinbo(greek or turkish people.the germans are always carefull about race issue because of there history.

it depends on your intended course and school but am sure you can get a school without Toefl/Ielts certificate.but the benefit is most university application is free or not so expensive(75 euro uni assist) so you can apply to as many schoo as you like.

sylarsquins:
