Rhayour:


So they are still accepting form A, this is good news. I will definitely visit any of their branches and apply as FOREX is not smilling

Yes, they do.

To those in Germany, which of this universities would be better off for me? City wise, Job and all? I speak English and a bit of French but no German...

I don't have admission letter yet, but Uni-assist said I can book for a visa interview with the email they sent to me. Has anyone tried that before?

Lastly about the blocked account, I already have 1 Euro account which I opened in the UK. Do I still have to open another euro account? Won't there be problems?
I know this is a lot of questions.

But please kindly answer the ones you can.

Many thanks in advance for your help.

to make things easier for you it is advised u learn the german language. either in Nigeria or in germany.

as to what uni-assist said i cant really say. didnt pass that route

for the blocked account issue, it is mandatory to open a blocked account with a german bank. the embassy usually prefers Deustche Bank. having another account in the uk doesnt matter.

between, i tot u said u have read the few pages in the thread. read from page 2 of this current thread to make things easier for u.

Gudevening honorable house,

without the Embassy receiving funding notification your application will be termed incomplete. if u have notification of funding forward it to the embassy especially if you av been contacted to send the confirmation.

Hi Everyone.

I followed this thread from the first part. It's been a really long read over the last few days.

I have a couple of questions please.
I have a B.A honours first class from the UK. Because of the exchange rate and high cost of living, I decided to go somewhere else for my masters. Canada application is taking too long.

I applied to 2 universities via uniassist in Germany a few weeks ago.

I received a mail from uniassist yesterday saying my application has been forwarded to the schools.

Today, one of the schools mailed me about a Skype interview.

I applied to university of kiel and the university of Marburg.

Not a lot of people there from the things I've been reading.

What do I expect from the interview? I mean questions and all?

Kiel is a nice place, and i know one or two person currently studying there in Kiel, but for Marburg i really don't know.

Hi all. Need urgent clarification please.
1. Is it not too late to just start processing of DB account preparatory to student visa application if resumption is 26th of September 2016 ?
2. How many days / weeks does it take to have DB account ?
3. Is there any age restriction for opening a DB account as claimed on here:
https://www.nairaland.com/3052025/general-german-visa-enquiries-part/152
4. Currently, is DB account the only proof of finance ?
If not, what are the other options please ?
I would like other options in order to be able to submit an application for student visa.
Thanks in advance for your response.

Thanks in advance for your response.

No, it isn't. Book the next available slot for DB account opening that corresponds to when your bank statement will be available. As you step out of the consulate, scan the receipt and book an appointment. To make it faster, save your admission letter and the biodata page of your passport, all as pdf files, as a draft message in your email. Once you're done from the embassy, scan the receipt and add it to the other documents in that draft. Immediately send it to the email address written at the back of the receipt. You should get a response email. hopefully, before the end of that day. The earlier you initiate the process, the safer it is for you. Good luck.

Kind of confused, thus it mean one can not apply for BSC program with WAEC in Germany? am applying to Rhine Waal.

NO, you can not apply with only WAEC.
No need for any confusion as their minmum requirement is higher than O level.
1st year UNIVERSITY transcript and OND are the minimum.

Hello house,

Can anyone tell the cheapest and fastest courier service company where one can obtain a pre-paid envelope?

soji0509:
NO, you can not apply with only WAEC. No need for any confusion as their minmum requirement is higher than O level. 1st year UNIVERSITY transcript and OND are the minimum.

What about statement of result?

Please communicate clearly, which statement ? All levels have statement of results! O level only NOT enough. OND transcript, 1st year transcript or Bsc transcripts . Read back many pages in order to understand PLEASE

Josh4wod:
What about statement of result?

No. You don't understand me. A pounds account is different from an Euro account. I have an Euro account with commerze bank which operates in Germany.

And the reason why I asked is because In past threads, the DB denied a few people and they were asked to open another account.

So therefore, it means DB is only the recommended but not the compulsory account.

I don't mind opening the DB. I just want to be sure I won't have problems later. E.g questions like 'since you already have an account with commerze bank, why open with DB?'

Guy na waa oh! Exactly a week ago, I answered this your question. I wonder what kind of answer you want to see. I even told you I'm an example of this scenario! Send the confirmation to the consulate and you may get your a.m. mail within 24 hours if the Ausländerbehörde of your intended city has already accepted you, or keep waiting for DB to send it for you and get a rejection when your enrollment deadline elapses. The choice is yours.

Hello!
I really don't know why the consulate is forcing us to use DB (maybe they get a cut, who knows). You should write an email to them, as well as Commerzbank if your account can be used for that purpose, or if it can be done with a new account, or if it must be DB.

As for Marburg vs Kiel; I don't know anything about Marburg, but Kiel is a nice small place. If you followed the thread (at least from the latter half of part 2) you'd know that Kiel has a relatively large community here

Only DB is authorized to open block account for incoming students.
@Pearl93 irrespective of the account you have with commerz bank, you must open a DB block account as a student.
@Williamso It's just the way Germans do their thing and i guess for documentation purpose, imagine different block account papers, more work and visa processing time.

Well, I don't know about that; Germany is already too bureaucratic, and considering that the banking options on a national level are already limited (Deutsche Bank, Postbank, HypoVereinsbank, Commerzbank and Dresdner Bank), I honestly don't know why we're all compelled to use DB...

Nope you cannot apply for a visa with uni assist message and the admission letter is the reason of considering your visa application.

The only recognised blocked account is the one with deutsche Bank.

If the bank account opened in the UK is Deutsche Bank account then you need to instruct the bank that you are a prospective student in Germany,Then they can block the account after being funded.

Your first step is the admission cos it is your reason for visa.

I know for sure that your visa will be processed and sent to germany. It will even be approved within the stipulated 4 to 6 weeks by the competent alien authority. If you haven't funded before then ,however, the lagos consulate will refuse to send you confirmation of visa but reminder to fund instead.

The statement above is at least true for myself and almost everyone i know who didn't fund before/immediately after interview.

Goodluck

Anybody here received Ogaga's whatsapp number for Hessen-bound students?

Frankfurt, Giessen, Marburg, Darmstadt, Kassel, Fulda, Offenbach usw...

I need to start planning.

I'm in Frankfurt till September. Holla me if u need any update

you can't gain entry into dere universities with waec alone, you should have done at least 100lv in a Nigerian University and use d transcripts to apply or use an HND degree /transcripts.
any other way other than this, na studienkolleg tins, nd don't ask wat studienkolleg is
