I wish I saw this earlier I would have advised u against it.

Why pay 2000 Euros when there's a very high chance that u won't get a date. And the worst the money is not refundable.

Imagine paying almost 1m. Then applying for date over and over and over. If u finally not get a date u can't withdraw ur admission.

In India its 500 Euros they pay but I don't know why Nigeria's own is 2000 Euros.

So if Germany decides not to to give out date and the decide to switch to another country ur 2000 Euros is gone just like that. Think about it

He can negotiate with them and pay just 1000 Euro.

Hi Everyone,

Please, I need assistance/advice on this school I am applying to in Germany but a bit skeptical because of the part payment of the tuition fee they're requesting before issuing an admission letter and some supporting documents.

The name of the school is Berlin School of Business and Innovation (BSBI), please does anyone have any information about this school cos I'm kinda scared as the requested amount is a bit high (2,000 Euros) and I do not want to be a victim of (you know) which is why I am requesting for support from people that has enough information about the school to kindly assist with information necessary to help.

although, it was written on their website that a part payment of the tuition fee would be made on submission and confirmation of one's application. I did submit all the required documents and I got an email that an education support officer would get in touch either by a phone call or by email. I got an email requesting for some other documents and shortly after I received a call from a Nigerian number telling me he is a representative of the school (this somehow has been bothering my mind) because I never expected to have received a call from a Nigerian (was expecting one of their citizens to be the one to get in touch).

so Fam' please, I need someone to assist with necessary information about the school majorly about the payment of 2,000 Euros and the authenticity of the school. please ill appreciate your support and advice to help with my decision making.

Thanks a lot for the anticipated support.
if you can listen to my advice, I am also a student of BSBI, I have received my admission letter, receipt and accommodation support letter, I will advice you to accept this offer and pay to your admission officer in Germany follow his or her instruction, you have no problem don't waste your time negotiating it is not negotiable, but first of all before you pay any money, make sure you receive your unconditional admission offer with your student ID, because whenever you are sending them payment you will quote your student ID on your bank transfer transaction, ( Regarding interview date if you did not get any date for February intake you will get for may intake

What if he doesn't get. Is the sum refundable

. That money is refundable, about this date issue people should have patience, most of the university in Germany will start in March and April and it will take German embassy 4 to 6 weeks to process your visa, they will begin to issue dates to category B very soon for sure, if he is highly motivated to go to BSBI he should pay that money and be positive. Just an advice anyway

How can this be? Please discount is not scholarship, scholarship here means that the German organization giving u the scholarship will take care of your living expenses, and u no longer need a block account cos of the scholarship..

Can u give me a link to prove this.

Don't be offended, I went through your post history and u were once talking about someone who booked under category B by January and got date by October. That's very scary 10 full months
Re: General German Student Visa Enquiries Part 7 by Coldie(m): 9:08am On Dec 11, 2019
I have booked and booked deferred my admission over and over. So I went through that BSBI letter and saw a 2000Euro discount.

According to what I researched a discount is smhw a scholarship.

So I booked under cat A and got a date.

Pls Mr coldie, go back to my post history and put ur facts right..I was responding to a question on cat B date which someone said here sometime ago "that his friend booked cat B and got a date of Jan 10 on October 31..pls read well before pointing fingers here.
Concerning The scholarship issue, except u are new here, everybody knows here that once u have a scholarship u don't need a block account.. It's even written on the German embassy website that scholarship, block account and sponsorship letter are the three means of funding.

If u are admitted to BSBI and u still need a block account.. That means my brother u are not on any scholarship.. take that to the bank..

I used first bank Mastercard atm card. You can try to use barter card. Download barter on playstore and create a virtual card, load funds on it and use it. This should go

Anyone having issues with payment on uni assist can try this option

P;S- I didn't use it because I needn't because my first bank atm easily did the job for me more than once. However, I've used barter card severally for international platforms where our local cards are being rejected. Good luck!

Going by the dates you stated, they should be for next Winter admission and not for Summer ... which means the ones on Uni-Assist now are those of Summer admission only ...reason why they are not there (YET). You will have to wait until when the schools open for Winter admission or get those that are opened already for summer admission.

Bros to be sincere with u the admission is not a scholarship, go back to ur appointment letter and read the scholarship part that qualify a student for category A it reads "holding a scholarship financed from a German public fund".. Did u meet this criteria? Truth is bitter but we must say it..and why they gave u a December date is because u tick that scholarship box on cat A application as German embassy doesn't joke with scholarship students.
But if I were in ur shoes I won't cancel, I will honour the interview and the worst case is being turned back..and u will come back and book cat B.. That's my suggestion..

. Seriously I am not sure my brother as you can see that rules has changed especially with category A. The BSBI scholarship is just for tuition fee reduction only is not a full scholarship or partial scholarship. I don't want you to get to consulate and get bounced.
