I really don't see why people cannot just take their time to research before applying for schools.. When I wanted to start I first thought that It wouldn't make sense starting from page 1(not that it was an issue for me) until I was adviced to do so and now I don't regret reading through same thread for two days then snapping the important pages.. ![]() Looking at MSc in summer 2016..already drafted a statement of purpose (abeg who go review for me?). ![]() And why are there no summer people here yet..heard summer is quite competitive cos most schools do not take summer..well a niccur can always try. Big thanks to all those who have answered and are still answering questions on the thread. Eke40seven and co |

olaabiodun:When I was looking for schools to apply, I came across some schools that insisted on only IELTS (they did not accept TOEFL) but I never came across a school that insisted on only TOEFL. |

DanIndia: Sorry but this isnt totally accurate. Apart from the UK which seemed to place a ban of TOEFL over their IELTS, no other country rejects TOEFL scores. Or do you have proof to the contrary? |
Re: General German Visa Enquiries Part 2 by twinkle1(m): 3:07pm On Aug 30, 2015 |
lmuhopeful: I agree with you Lmuhopeful... And for the TOEFL /IELTS have been seeing of late on here . If u check the website of top schools in the UK, you will see their toefl requirements and they still accept it. If you want to apply to German institutions. TOEFL is as valid as IELTS. There's a preference for IELTS to TOEFL in the UK all because of that TOEIC saga last year. But I think everything is now OK. 2 Likes |

lmuhopeful, I think you're getting me wrong. I never said a country rejected TOEFL, did I? I clearly stated and I quote "IELTS gain ground pass TOEFL. Your option is vast with IELTS whilst with TOEFL, you only can join a few universities." This doesn't mean that they'll reject your TOEFL. I'm just saying they'll prioritize IELTS than TOEFL. Given that the British English is accepted and preferred over American in the whole of Europe. Only American schools would choose TOEFL over IELTS and not even all of them. EDIT; When I meant a few, I didn't mean literally a few universities, that would be in thousands ![]() lmuhopeful: 2 Likes |

Re: General German Visa Enquiries Part 2 by twinkle1(m): 6:51pm On Aug 30, 2015 |
DanIndia: Yea I get you.. No ish A lot of people say IELTS is easier than TOEFL nd the registration is easier.. But do know TOEFL is very predictable? ![]() The same format every year in fact if I think they repeat their questions sef! Just little tweaks here and there.. But the good news is that German schools don't really send your toefl or IELTS score o.. Most schools are OK with 80+ or 6.0.. The top schools requiring 90+ or 6.5+ still very OK.. Compared to UK and US top schools heheheheeh.. 1 Like |

ayeopare:Ayeopare, this ur case na die o. Hw u go book appointment for interview without acquiring a sponsorship letter? Ah I never see this before oo. U get mind sha. Nobody go fit help u with the spons letter for here and I will advise u to look for a travel agent since u don't have a person in Germany to provide it for u. I think a good TA will have someone over thr to sort it out for u and u'll do the needful for him. Na sponsorship letter u jst called like that. |
Re: General German Visa Enquiries Part 2 by Nobody: 7:07pm On Aug 30, 2015 |
How can you have 'done interview since 6th July, 2015' And need a sponsorship letter close to two months later? What exactly are you getting at? ayeopare: |
Re: General German Visa Enquiries Part 2 by DanIndia(m): 7:09pm On Aug 30, 2015 |
Really ? I never knew about that TOEFL o. IELTS, I believe, listening section is a walk in the park. The writing can be a bit tricky though. I've never had to register for TOEFL but the registration procedure for IELTS was easy. It just took a minute or two and that was it. True - most schools are OK with 6.0. But if you were to advise someone on which cert to sit for - would you have them do TOEFL ? Based on the experience and the questions repetition. twinkle1: |

DanIndia: Yes I can advice them to do TOEFL. I dropped a link of a TOEFL pack to download months back.. There are about 22 past exams one can practice with in it.. It's a Simulator.. http://www.4shared.com/zip/P3mexyAP/TOEFL_TPO__Mitsu_Licensed_.html BUT.. Someone I know that follows this German thread said he just Freestyled the IELTS exam..

sonyville: That is if you are sending hard copy of your documents to other schools. But if it is uni-assist, once you have sent a set of document, you don't to send another one but only the confirmation page of uni-assist which is just about 3-4 sheets for each additional school. Some schools will require you to first fill an online application, print the confirmation page and send it together with the hard copy of your documents. Which can not allow you to send the hard copy before the opening of application portal. The deadline of MSC in system engineering and engineering management November 15,at check the list of the schools you have penciled down and see if there is anyone that will start application process by October; sending it around October 15 together with other ones will still be a nice bargain. But firstly, work on how to pay your uni-assist fee, that is more paramount than sending your documents. They start working when they confirm your payment and not when your documents arrive. If you can also get a nairalander travelling during this winter that can help you send the document in Germany, that will be nice too cause it will be cheaper that way. Best of luck. Shalom |

This ayeopare guy needs to come and enlighten the house how he applied for visa interview, what he used, and what medium he'll like to employ in order to change an on-going visa application process from blocked account to sponsorship. Honestly, It will be a great eye opener. Meanwhile, am wishing all visa hopeful success this week. am smelling some testimonies already. keep 'em coming. we shall all testify at the end ![]() 3 Likes |

Re: General German Visa Enquiries Part 2 by honourableseyi: 8:33pm On Aug 30, 2015 |
dolpaz: I guess he first used block account slip to book for an appointment and did his interview with; but since he can't raise the money, I assume he is thinking of changing it to sponsorship stuff. I assume ni ooooo, it may be wrong or right. Abi se I lie @Ayeopare? I think the first thing you need to know or confirm is, "can an on-going visa application process be change from blocked account to sponsorship?" before you make any other move. IMO |

I hail all the honourables for here. As una dey arrive in drips and trickles, I want to drop an advice which was given here this time last year. Carry food as much as you can. All those small small 3euro 4euro meals you will be tempted to eat in your fist few days can fit wreck your pocket. As soon as possible start cooking for yourselves. 3euros X 3meals X 5days = you know the maths. That's all. 6 Likes |

skills50: How good is your German ? Studying medicine in Germany is very competitive. You require not only a very high proficiency in the language but also high Grades from your Abitur( if you have one ![]() ![]() Don't feel you can't make it, or achieve it. Take my words as STEROIDS and use them for your preparation. The journey is not long but not for the faint hearten. I met a Nigerian Nurse who told me how she came in contact with a Nigerian Head Doc.( Hauptartz), that is how they are called. For those who have visited any teaching hospital in Germany will understand what it is to be one. You move around with other Doctors but they are all behind you like your bodyguards. Bros do come join the league joor. Interested students can contact their university for stipendium. Application for Deutschlandstipendium will commence soon. The money may seem small but it will go a long way to alleviate your financial burden. I really don't have much info about it because applications differ from each Universität.

twinkle1: Bros it's good to cook ohh, but it also has its disadvantage. If you are staying alone not in a shared apartment i will strongly advice to cook once a week and refrigerate all. Then you can always warm and eat when hungry. And also learn how to eat hot food just once a day. it will help you on the long run and eat lots of fruits, it makes you look fit and healthy. Mind you fruits are cheap just flow with the season. We also have vegetables, learn how to eat them too. lol Talking from experience. When your energy bill hit you, na sorry go be your block account. 2 Likes |
