klexycole:
Good to learn that you are going for Bsc. I'm equally applying for Bsc too. I've made an extensive research and I've listed some schools to send applications to, come winter. It seems to me that we are going for the same course in Management.
However, there are several schools offering Bsc management courses completely in English. I will advise you apply to more schools to give you more chance of admission. On the other hand, most schools offering these courses open applications for winter.
Check these schools;
✓ University of Magdeburg ✓ Hoschule Bonn-Rien-Sieg ✓ University of Deggendorf ✓ University of Aachen ✓ FHWS Wurzburg ...and more
Note that all these universities accept English Proficiency Letter for the courses, but writing IELTS will be a plus.
A quick question to you. Do you have a previous degree in Management and looking to apply for another degree? Or you are applying with a 100L transcript? Kindly respond.
By the way, I'm looking towards winter. ) Thank you so much I have pm you Kindly respond I have 100level transcript 1 Like |

Guten Morgan!
Please are there any current Ph.D. students here? I got a supervisor at Goethe University Frankfurt and met with her and my team in September (traveled on a tourist visa). Fortunately, after weeks of waiting, I got a Visa appointment date for 5th December 2018. Now the challenge is, I will not get my official admission letter from the university before my appointment as the Ph.D. committee has to meet first before sending out letters (This is just for formalities). Their next meeting is on the same day as my appointment (5th Dec) thus, the challenge.
My supervisor sent me a letter from the department stating she has accepted me and so has the HoD (He is also my 2nd supervisor) and we are just waiting for the committee's formalities. Does anyone think that the consulate will accept this as an admission letter? Any idea if I will be able to open a blocked account with this? Which of the banks is fastest to open a blocked account? Or should I just cancel my appointment? |

Hi Dankeschon/Nairalanders, I had my interview today. I need to find out the following concerning the interview: 1. My original documents were retained at the embassy but my intl passport was released to me. Is that how it should be normally? 2. Though my german bank account opened with fintiba is yet to be funded but I noticed the slip given to me at the embassy has only deustche bank on it - can I go ahead and fund the account opened with fintiba? 3. how do I know the deadline for funding the account? Many thanks as I await your response Dankeschon: Good evening everyone I really thank God for everything.
Had my appointment/interview on 29th August, and after a long wait of over 8weeks, got my AM yesterday 29th October 2018.
The wait was not easy tho, buh still worth it.
I advise we should always be calm and patient. The guys at the Consulate are actually on their best, buh that shouldn't stop your reminders through emails, and calls. Most times the hold up is usually from your destination alien office, cos mine took almost a month for them to reply. I was able to get their office line to call them, I was then informed that the lady in charge of my file was on hols, I had to wait two weeks extra. She finally resumed, they were so kind to give me her desk-ext number, so I called her for three straight days without any response, she finally picked on the fourth day, and promised to treat my file.
I had to call again the next week, and she told me that one of her colleague who was meant to be part of taking a decision on my file was sick, buh she'll try and convince others so they can reach a decision before the end of that week (This Phone conversation was on 22nd Monday last week). I still didn't get the AM all week, so on Friday 26th, I sent an email to the Consulate, and called her, and she informed me that they had responded to the Embassy on Tuesday 23rd Oct.
Yesterday, my AM dropped.
I pray for those waiting; just be of good faith, and always be sincere.
Once again, thank God for everything.

harkheju: The VPD is a certificate issued by uni-assist which you submit directly to the university when you apply there. Generally, you have to submit the VPD to the university before the application deadline expires. NB: Not all universities use uni-assist for evaluation of documents.. Some prefer you submit directly to them..

justwise: Here is the part 5.
Part4 is here https://www.nairaland.com/modifypost?post=58760455&redirect=%2F3941544%2Fgeneral-german-student-visa-enquiries%2358760455
I really have to thank those who stayed back to help even after getting their visas and despite their busy study and work programs in Germany.
I also have to thank those who shared their experiences right from visa journey to life in Germany as foreign students.
For newbies your German school search starts here https://www.daad.de/deutschland/studienangebote/en/
The following steps will help newbies (Thanks to CassieV for the tips)
Most of the schools in Germany are tuition free even for international students, you only get to pay a certain amount as semester fees say between 100-400 euros and most times the semester fee comes with a semester ticket to aid in transportation in your city or town. However, before you're granted a student visa, you have to prove that you can take care of your living expenses with one of the following means ; 1. Block account: The estimated living expenses for a student in a month is 720euros, when you multiply that by 12 months, you get 8640euros. This is the amount you're required to block in an already opened account with either Deutsch bank, Fintiba or Xpatrio. It is called a block account because you will not be able to withdraw everything at once, only 720euros will be released to you every month. 2. Sponsorship letter: If you have a relative living and working legally in Germany, they can get you this letter. They'll have to visit the alien office in their city and will be required to provide some documents and pay a certain fee. The letter will be sent to you when they receive it so that you can go with it for your visa interview. 3. Scholarship: This is usually the best if you have the scholarship, your visa will be granted in under 2 weeks after interview. So try and look for scholarships you can apply to.
Now that you understand the financial situation, let's go into the application process. To search for schools, click on this link https://www.daad.de/deutschland/studienangebote/international-programmes/en/?p=l&q=&fos=0&lang[]=2&fee[]=0&sortBy=1&page=1&display=list filter your search to make it easier, there are English taught courses there. Generally, the very important documents needed to apply to schools in Germany are; 1. Transcript 2. English Proficiency 3. School Certificates (Degree, Waec, etc) However, depending on the school, some other documents needed are as follows. 4. Curriculum Vitae 5. Motivation letter 6. Reference letters 7. GRE test 8. Etcetera.. Visit your prospective school website and find out the documents they need from you. Note: You don't apply with your original documents, you have to make photocopies of them and Certify them in High court or a Notary public. If you stay in Lagos, you can certify at the German Embassy too. You'll have to book appointment for that. For those planning to go for a Bachelors course, you need a 100level transcript from a university to apply for a BSc program in germany. WAEC alone will not be enough and No, OND will not do, you need a HND.
For the application proper, it is always important to go through the website of the schools you want to apply to, you'll get a lot of information form there concerning how to apply. Some schools do only online applications, some requires that you send your application documents to them by post after applying online, some you send your documents as pdf to their email address and then you get the uni assist crew. Like I said earlier, it is important to go visit and read the websites.
When you get your admission letter, open a block account immediately(that is if you don't already have a sponsorship letter) and as soon as you get your account details, send an email to the embassy requesting for a visa interview date. You need these to get an interview date: 1. Admission letter 2. Block account/sponsorship letter/scholarship letter 3. International passport data page(scanned) Then your Full name and Resident address.
Prepare for your interview Go for your interview Pls do I have to bear the same surname with the person or it doesn't matter? |
