Last year, Euroacademy students were denied visas in Isreal.

Secondly, the Estonia embassy in Egypt told me last week in a reply email that they have a big technical problem. As a result, they cannot give appointments currently. They didnt say they were stopping transit.
Some Euroacademy students got visa in Turkey,even Egypt that is very strict also gave them visa, so why Israel denied them ?

Estonia embassies in Turkey, Egypt and Israel did not give to Euroacademy students who applied late. That was when Euroacademy problem started.

If the problem is resolved, then I believe they will give.

Hi Guys,

I came to Tallinn September last year and i went through a lot to get here. I cant believe i made it here. Am going to share few tips with you on what i wished someone told me before i came. This is my personal opinon

Admission
Ensure you apply for admission early because most time its given on first come, first serve basis.
Strive to get a tuition waiver. if you cant get one, then its fine. Just ensure you bring enough money to cover at least one year tuition.
Apply for scholarships, this will help you a lot prior to finding a job.
Do your IELTS/TOEFL test early.

This is actually the easy part, now the hard part


After Getting Admission
Once you get your admission decision, ensure you apply for visa early like in April. Turkey, Russia, Israel and Egypt are your best routes. Dont waste your money on UK.
For Israel route, contact Godswill Nkwusi. He was the one that helped them last year.
Try to form a whats app group, this will help a lot especially with information.
Apply for hostel very early. Akadeemia 7/1 and 7/2 is really nice but for those looking for affordable accommodation Akadeemia tee 5 and 11 is great.
Buy health insurance preferably Swiss as the other option (ERGO) is more expensive, if you are on a budget you can pay quarterly.
Do not carry any form of medicine or contraband into the airport because as a Nigerian, you will be subjected to an embarrassing form of baggage search.
Dress decently to the airport, the more professional you look, the less scrutinised you are.
Turkish airline is the best you can use from Nigeria to Transit destination to Estonia. This is because when you get to Istanbul, you will not be searched again as against when you enter Schegen zone.
Book an appointment with the Estonian embassy on time.
Do not exceed your visa stay as you will pay a penalty on point of departure.
Book an airbnb accommodation i.e you can book a three bedroom flat and three people can share the cost. Be careful and try not to stay with strangers all in the name of cutting cost. Most Nigerian guys do a lot of dubious stuff in these countries so be careful.
When going to the Estonian embassy, please have all the required documents, print and fill your form correctly. It makes life easier for you trust me.
For those without scholarship, ensure you have a sponsor's letter or an account with enough money in it.
The fear of Euro academy is the beginning of wisdom. It is so unpredictable and they have this constant battle with the government so please be careful.
Please if you are coming to Estonia with the intention of hustling and running away from school (especially euroacademia students), dont bother coming, so you dont create bad name for us.
Bring your laptop and buy your phone in Nigeria as these things are expensive here.
Ensure you bring enough money for your living expenses (1000 euros). TRP takes time to come out and you cant get a job without your TRP.
Dont waste your time packing clothes because you may not use it. Just pack sneakers, sweaters, hoodies and winter jackets for the cold.
For those using Egypt and turkey, be very careful because i assure you, you will be ripped off (moneywise) especially cab men
Estonian food suck, so make sure you bring some naija foodstuffs from home especially milk, palmoil, crayfish e.t.c

Lastly, ensure you read this page from the beginning as it would help you a lot.

If i remember any more tips, i would post. Pardon the English as it was written in a hurry.

I enjoy eating Estonian food. New students can try them out with an open mind.

Milk (liquid) sold in Estonia is very nice.

Try to make friends with locals. It is one sure way to enjoy your stay.

Carry anti-malaria drug if you think you have malaria prior to travelling. Since there is no malaria in Estonia it would be difficult and expensive to find anti-malaria drugs.

In Tallinn you can find Nigerian foods to buy. But not in Tartu.

Turkish Airline is a low cost airline so it is affordable. And let me tell you this secret. If you transit on this airline and your layover/waiting time at the airport is up to 4 hours, then you qualify for a meal ticket. Just find Turkish Airline customer support desk and request for it. It may sound funny but when you have to wait in Turkey for 25 hours before your next flight then you will know how much you would save yourself as food is very expensive at airports. The airline won't tell you this.

Thanks for the tips

I think if you have medicine, you put them in your check-in luggage. The scanner does the rest. It is what you have in your hand bag or on your body that would go for a second check.

The other day I traveled, only once they checked my the bag I held with me. It didnt take 30 seconds.

This talk about Euroacademy gets me scared. I already taken their conditional acceptance. It closed all my other applications.

I saw on Dream Apply, I had to make a choice on my Euroacademy conditional acceptance by 31st January. I took took the admission, and immediately the invitation I got to pay application fee to Tallin University of Technology was revoked. Dream Apply said I have rejected TUT's offer.
