Hello everyone.
For a while now in my research on the vital information on travel section on Nairaland, I notice most people prefer to travel out via study route than work route despite the cost to study.
I will like to ask why do most people prefer this route. Obviously, not everyone may be able to afford the expenses via study route.
Secondly, I will want to ask that is it easy to apply to study Masters after entering European countries via work visa and work for some time to raise money?
Thanks in serious anticipation.

Everyone would have preferred the work route option but it's 95% impossible to secure a job outside the EU.

Don't be deceived by any rouge travel agent, there are no EU work visas out there except you have top of the roof skills and working experience in IT, Health, Sports and Engineering professions.

Why would EU give you working rights if you can't speak any EU language...

Why would they leave an EU citizen that has an automatic working rights and suffer to employ non EU citizen without any working rights

The only country where you can get work visa in EU for unskilled and menial job is Poland, even so you have to prepare like 1.5m for the entire process.

the real issue is its hard to secure work from nigeria if you are not a doctor, nurse, accountant, IT person etc. Most agents who promise work visas are scams unless they are doing arab countries for you.

I appreciate this. How is easy for an unskilled worker in Europe to switch to student(Masters)?

In the case of Poland, its very easy to change from work permit to study permit, and your study permit will come with part time working rights.

Just make sure that you work minimum of 1 year without any criminal record.

Note, I have not been to Poland before, these information I searched from the internet

It is almost impossible to secure a work visa if you are not in IT or healthcare.

even the IT and healthcare is rare... You must posses top notch skills and be super experienced

Not true. I have friends with two years of experience getting sponsored from Nigeria. Young small boys getting work visas to Germany like it's nothing. The supply for IT skills isn't much abroad compared to the demand so companies need to fill with candidates from other countries.

I think it's basically because of the financial requirement and visa possibility.

Most foreign countries believe that students are going to spend money from school fees to accommodation fees to feeding. In effect, their economy will be strengthened by the infusion of money by the students.

Work force, on the other hand, are there to 'milk' the economy. All they think of is to have assets in there home country thereby devaluating their economy.

In addition, most people applying for students are youths who have little liabilities as there's no (one's) nuclear family ties yet.
