But I thought the UK has relaxed it's laws with international students beginning this January with opportunities to stay back after graduation?
they've not relaxed jack. When I wanted to leave Nigeria, one of my uncles proposed the UK but I vehemently refused it. It was either Canada or Australia and fortunately I went to Canada. The university of Manitoba and I was given 3yrs after my studies.

How do you know that?

Because you still have faith in the shortage list. Lol, that’s so ‘80s grin. Don’t mind me! The shortage list works for experienced pros. Now that sponsorship is hard to give, they don’t keep it for graduates work less than 3 years work experience.

If you think I’m lying, let’s do this, if you know someone that has less than 3 years work experience in a STEM field that got a job and isn’t being sponsored by the NHS, that did heir master’s in the UK and graduated between 2015 and now, please tell them to come and enlighten us. It will be an honour to meet such a guru! cheesy

Computer science? Uncle are you drunk? Do you know what STEM is? Check the UK shortage list, there are more IT-related jobs in the shortage list than even medical jobs.

Ilaje44:

If you pay for something even if it's one Euro, you cannot qualify it as free, because you are paying for it. There are perks you get from different states, but you have to differentiate from state to state.

When I replied you, I don't think I spoke about private Universities. I said Education is state affair, and you should be specific and not generalize. BTW, how many private universities do you have in Germany? There are not many, so please learn to keep arguments in the proper perspective.

Again, saying it's only B-W that collects fees shows you are not conversant with the situation. Bavaria does collect fees too, even if the fees you pay are not as expensive as what you pay in the UK. You still have to calculate it as part of your cost to arrive at the proper cost of living.

I do not know how you young people argue. First and foremost, tribalism and racism are two different things. Secondly, online rants, and physical attacks are not the same either. How many of those ipod people or Yoruba e-warriors have you heard are going after each other on the streets of Nigerian towns?

And if you had understood my post very well, you wouldn't come with such ridiculous counter argument. I remember to clearly have said Eastern Germany is particularly worse. And the most states in the East are poorer than the west, and they have a lot of these Nazis all around towns, and it is much dangerous to go out alone again. This was something that happened 20+ years ago, and the government did a lot to suppress it, and in the wake of the plenty asylum seekers have resurfaced again.

I lived 19 years there, and it was the most enjoyable time. But I was aware of the dangers. I was aware of where to go, where not to go, and I avoided going to some areas in the dark alone at night. Still, you cannot totally avoid these people. And comparing Nairaland ipod and e-warrior rants to racism, and saying there's racism everywhere tells me you are not conversant with the danger of Nazism. Anti foreigners sentiment is very high in today's Germany, and people need to know it. If you want to go to school in Germany, avoid states in the East (Saxony, Mecklenburg-Pomerania, Brandenburg, Saxony- Anhalt and to some extent Thuringia) even though it is cheaper there, because the chance that some lunatics can physically attack and kill you, because of your skin colour IS REAL.
Besides, you may not find a semester job if you stay in the east.


You stay in a country for 19 years and the only thing you can talk about is the Negative part.

Kindly give a fair pictures of overall country.

I will handle all point you raised one after the other.

1) Education and other sector of Germany is under state jurisdictions. You mention bavaria paying tuition fee and this is false so I respectively disagree with that assertion.
My brother is currently a student in passau which is inside bavaria(computer Science) without paying a tuition fee. What they charge is around 300 euro per semester fee to re-enrol. This money covers transportation for 6 months and other benefit of student.tuition fee has been abolish since 2013.

This is my proof for other readers to peruse.

https://www.study-in-bavaria.de/why-bavaria/10-reasons-to-study-in-bavaria/

2)To talk about eastern germany and rascism in this 21st century shows your assertion is one sided.Take or leave it...there is a strong correlation between tribalsim and rascis. I used ipob and yoruba e-warriors as example of how rascism can be find in most human setting.

But I have a question for you Sir.
How come in all your post you refuse to mention the millions of syrians Germany help. Accommodate them, pay them 300 euro monthly, free health insurance,free education,free child benefit to each child(190 euro)?

3) I understand you lived when they are not open to people, thats around 20 years ago. The present day Germany, have lived and work in the four region without seeing any form of your negative pictures.

Brandeburg you talk about is home to a very large yoruba community. Go to berlin same thing..are they not east Germany? Have tour all the state you mention and there are Nigerians and people of other races there without what you painted being encountered.This is 2018 not 1998.

Anti immigrant sentiment is very high where?

If you are here legally they have no issues with you. Except the illegal asylum seekers and drug dealers, which alot of people who came into Germany in the early years fall into.

4) You talked about semester job not in the east....lol...bros things has changed...Have u heard about amazon in berlin, brandenburg and leipzig?
Do you know even asylum seekers work in several places all year round now talkless of legal resident like student?

After enjoying here for 19 years its only the weaker and negative part you talk about...its Ok.

Please tell the world about German top companies.There immigration friendly policy etc .

My point is give a fair picture of the country to the readers. Like I did.

All countries have there disadvantages, but when benefit outweighed cost, I think its a good move.

Happy Sunday Sir.

I don’t believe this! What course do system analysts, programmers and web devs do as a first degree?

Now come, let me School you so you don’t embarrass yourself outside. Computing (or comp sci) is the umbrella course for ALL IT degrees. You study Computing as a first degree then deviate/specialise with certifications or a masters degree. No University teaches system analysis or web development as a bachelor’s degree, sir. So no, Computing is on the shortage list sir.

Thank you. I'd reconsider it. I'm just scared that they would remove the two years post study before I graduate (I would be finishing next year).

I was also aware of the two years post study but I hope it is not a coax just like the UK own.

Ok I understand.

Some of us didn’t need to write IELTS Cos our WAEC hep’d us, so a lot of wannabe nurses had to write the IELTS.

Please check your time frame, you got your job 4 years ago yeah, did it occur to you that maybe, just maybe, the system gets tougher as the years go
The only way to remain in the UK is if you go back for a PhD (lol you will just get 3 more years) or you marry a citizen. The OP should be commended for even warning people about getting married just for papers cos not many people use the PhD route.

I didn’t suggest in anyway that I got my job four years ago, whatever the process is now, that is what I went through to get registered. Actually, the system has been made easier because combined IELTS test scores are accepted now, unlike when I did mine.

That girl is a guru! My regards to her please. I wrote their numerical tests and all I could think of was “are you bleeping kidding me?!!”. I closed the page Cos my expertise pays double what she’s earning in Barclays.

Anyway, you do realise that every company has a limited number of people they can sponsor yeah? So what if the time I’m applying is when they suddenly need experienced professionals, would they pick me instead of them?

The point I’m trying to make is that provided you need to be sponsored, there’s a 1% chance of getting the job. Now that I don’t need sponsorship, how come I’m suddenly getting nocticed by employers? I just believe that if it's extremely difficult to get a job in the UK after school, people that hoped on getting a job should study else where. Shikena

My dear you can’t do anything, it’s heir country and their laws. Your own is just to pray that you get it before the whistle is blown.

You’re in IT so be rest assured that you are in demand in a lot of countries. Just focus on finishing first. Even if all the countries turn you down, Nigeria will welcome you. (But God will not let it get to the point of depending on Nigeria grin)

Little advice, try and get a security certification, project management cert, or BA cert if you are not programming savvy.
