As someone with first and second degrees here and who is presently doing a PhD here too,I believe the op is 100 percent on the money.

Listen to him!

That is not true, not all, just some.

Yes free tuition fee but you still need to have 8000 euro in blocked account and pay monthly insurance.
The eight thousand euro you will deposit in your account is it tuition fee, compare to the UK? Why wont you have insurance?

EndtimeBlessing:
1) In comparison to the US, Canada and Australia; UK is the easiest country to get University admission and procure Visa.

2) A Masters Degree in the UK is quicker or faster to get - it is 1 year while those of US, Canada and Australia are often over 1 year.

3) Make sure you have money for at least 1 year tuition fee. Although you will be allowed to do 20 hours of work per week, the money you will make from this will only take care of your expenses or part of it. If you rely on it to pay first year tuition, it may not work. You can get subsequent session’s tuition fee or part of it by working hard during the summer holidays when you are allowed to work full time.

4) You are expected to return back to your country after completing your studies, except you are offered a job by a UK employer. This is very difficult to get because there are laws tying the hands of the employers from employing non EU immigrants. If you must come, never resign your job in Nigeria if you have one.

5) Having an additional skill like hair barbing, hair weaving for girls, web design, web marketing, etc may put some extra money into your pocket if you know how to market yourself but this is not guaranteed.

In conclusion, conduct an extensive research on what to expect academically, financially and generally before taking the step. This will enable you to hit the ground running and know what to do after you finish your studies.


I love that.

8000 euro is a lot less than the 20000 gbp per annum that you will end up paying in tuition in the UK.

Also, cost of living in Germany is lower and quality of life is better.

Bro, it's tuition free university in Germany. The 8500euro you are talking, 400 euro will be given back to you every month from the money you deposited, and you can only deposit that money first year pro to your resumption, the rest study year are exceptional. Any country in Europe as long as you are a student it is compulsory you will have health Insurance and 4 hours work per-day.

Yes. A person who is a PhD candidate would not write like that. Besides he's lying about getting a work visa. Which kind of work visa did he get in 3 months? While still on student visa? I'd like to know.

In Germany getting job is 80% guaranteed, and after your study they'll retain you. The 8 thousand euro is still yours bro.

Am not takin sides here so dnt get me wrong, I dnt care if we gets a work visa or not. If truly he did school in the States n only a PHD holder that's his business, my question is wud studying in the UK makes him a better writer?.

If you are interested in coming for a Masters Degree in the UK, I can help you out with information and processes at no cost.

Tuition fee range between £8,000 to as high as you can imagine depending on the school and the course. You will be required to pay part of this money before applying for Visa. However, you will be required to have the balance of the tuition fee and your 9 months living expenses in your bank account for 28 days before applying for the Visa.

Bsc from Nigeria is recognised by all the schools here.

My argument is that studying in Germany is not free as people try to put it, i'm not comparing the cost of studying in the UK to that of Germany.
