Odedenshi1:


You should follow up discussion on the German student visa thread. I read there two days ago that if you are yet to get date for interview, you could cancel your previous booking and re-book using a date in December as your commencement date to stand a chance, I don’t know how true it is anyway.

justwise:
Here is the part 6


An incredible job by all contributors including those who ask questions and those who provide answers, job well done!

This is part 5 https://www.nairaland.com/4566903/general-german-student-visa-enquiries



Thank you for this. Please I have a challenge which I will like to get people's advice on. My original WAEC certificate is missing and I have applied to WAEC for attestation of result but they said it takes between 6-8 months before it is released. Some of the schools I applied asked for soft copy of my original certificates which I posted all except my waec which I uploaded only the photocopy. Please, I'm so scared this will affect my application negatively and when its time for interview too, hope I won't have issues wit Paulinus? has anyone been in my shoes before? please help.
