osane09:
Guy please can I notarize my Documents at German embassy Abuja?

crowns2:

Yes I saw one on Naira land here. I contacted them they said their fee is 110,000 naira for level A1. I told them it was outrageous. But if you are interested here it is:
https://www.nairaland.com/1510030/learn-german-port-harcourt
Or Google: learn German in portharcourt. I think they advertised on Olx too. Emmer Schneider. Maybe while you Google you can get more Deutsch teaching schools.

Junipero:



The german school I went to was EUROLAC Center. It's on NTA ROAD,Rumuokwuta. adjacent to the Ada George Junction.


They taught me very well. Got value for my money. And it was cheaper. Passed my Goethe B1 without stress. Visa interview went smoothly.



I've said too much abeg

Growingboi:

Thanks in advance

kuthvic:
Hello All.
Please if you apply for student visa for school A. can you decide to change to school B when u get to germany ?

Eke40seven:


Learn basic German now, I repeat, if you wanna "purify" your hustle, look for the nearest language centre and learn German, you still have 5 months before the winter semester, LEARN GERMAN!!!!

Williamso:

Uncle Eke, it was written somewhere in part 1 that IT (with emphasis on prirgramming) would go a long way in increasing the chances of non German speaking students to secure jobs (and possibly post graduation jobs as well).
My prospective field is IT, as such, I'm taking programming classes, and besides, some of the schools I applied to offer free German classes to foreigners. Do you consider it a risk worth taking to ditch the programming for German as both are currently mutually exclusive? Thanks.

styles2009:

Don't dicht any of them, do both simultaneously, do a simple Google search with this term: studentenwerk heidelberg or (studenten Job)and look under job offers for students and the IT requirements,what employers are searching for from students.
Most student jobs start after lectures and the language courses offered by some uni too starts after lectures too, so you having a basic 5-6 months german knowledge before you come would really help and its not about having passed B1 or B2 but defending it by speaking and writing after 6 months of being here.
Cheers

Hi guys. Got my visa yesterday, thanks for the advice.

However, I think I might be a bit screwed. The conference I'm going for is from jun 3-6. My visa is from jun 1- 10. Meanwhile, I had already booked a ticket to Frankfurt from May 20. a company is buying my ticket to Frankfurt so I decided to take my vacation and just pay a bit of money to go to London from Frankfurt from May 20. I told the officer this and even showed her the reservation for the flight to London since I didn't have a hotel reservation until the 2nd.

I'm flying Qatar to Frankfurt and Lufthansa to London so I will probably have to get my luggage which means going thru immigration. So do I need to get a transit visa?

DanIndia:
I'm sorry I just don't get the question from your comment. It's all jam-packed. Can you please construct your question/sentences more precisely? This makes it easier for people to answer.
Where is your first destination ? Where do you think you'd need a transit visa for ?
Just so you know, your Schengen visa doesn't admit you into the UK. You need a separate UK visa for that.

Man51ut:


Sorry for the confusion.

1. I am going for a conference in Germany. Dates june 3-6. Company is paying for the ticket. Based on that, German embassy gave me a visa for 10 days but valid only from June 1.

2. Because company is paying for a ticket to Germany, i figured I would take my vacation now rather than having to pay for a ticket to wherever in Europe later in the year. My plan was to go to Switzerland and England before the conference. I would only have to pay maybe about 200-300 euros from my pocket. I have a valid UK visa for this venture.

3. The company is only paying for my transport and accomodation to Germany. I'm flying Qatar to Germany, then flying Lufthansa to London. I am doing this on May 21. I will have to get my luggage and check it in on Lufthansa so I am assuming that I will have to go through immigration for this and it will be a problem since my visa isn't valid till the 1st of June.

Summary: I have a German visa that is valid from June 1. I have travel plans to London on May 21 from Frankfurt. I'm flying Qatar airways to frankfurt and then I bought a cheap Lufthansa ticket to London so I will need to retrieve and check in my baggage in Frankfurt which means I will have to go through immigration. Should I get a transit visa? I have a valid UK visa.

Once again sorry for the confusion.

Kajiang02:
Sorry this may have been discussed before now. But I got a mail from University of Offenburg to send certified copies of Transcript and Degree results.
I'm believing its an authentication of my result as well as transcript that they require. (Pls correct me if I'm wrong).
My questions now?
1. Can I get this authentication done at the embassy in Lagos tomorrow or I'll need to book an appointment?
2. What are the costs implications?

Urgent response would be required pls so I can set forth for the consulate tomorrow.

Thanks.

Kajiang02:
Bros you harsh small sha. (Joking).
Thanks a great deal. I wonder why I left my passport in Calabar and I'm here in Lagos.
I'll give it a shot tomorrow though. Without my passport. Its only the Degree and Transcript that requires certification as stated by the school.
I hope I get through this.

Thanks for your input.

Let's talk a lil bit bout studien kolleg..there are some of us here who need info Über studien kolleg..guten morgen

Go and read from around page 300 of the part 1 and this part from the beginning. I don't think there is any other school that was discussed as much as Rhine Waal in the whole of the thread. Even, there was once a fierce debate on that topic which spanned over a page or two.
Yes you can, about two weeks ago, this was reconfirmed by the representatives of the consulate at an event jointly organised by them. I asked them personally and the answer was in the affirmative. I have rebooked an appointment with the admission I have at hand.
*******************************************

To my TUM people, I think I have accidentally fallen into your family circle. I was looking to apply for a course there, Advanced construction and Building Technology. I sent my docs for pre-evaluation last year and I was told to apply and I had a very strong chance of entering if I wrote their more than 5,000 word essay from selected topics, however their application will not start until later. so, I applied to another course in same school which opened earlier and in which I think I was qualified for, although an essay was written but with lesser word count than the former. Since they use same online application portal and would share same documents, I used the opportunity to send the docs earlier.

Now, in the middle of the difficult essay, a routine check on the website, yielded that I can't apply to the Msc. Advanced Construction and Building Technology again because TUM have decided to end the programme. Now, I'm stuck with the other course. I sent my docs on 17th of March (31st deadline), but Nipost didn't disappoint because the last time I decided to check, the docs were uploaded on TUM online, (I thought it didn't meet the deadline earlier, didn't really care)
TUM, needs 70% for automatic qualification, (60-69, interview) my GP has given me 46/54% and I will need to squeeze enough points from the16% designated for the motivation letter and essay, 30%. If all goes well, am as good as in.

I have made further enquiries as regards opportunities in Munich and also a survey from different cities currently for student jobs for people without German proficiency and from what I can gather, Munich ain't that easy as against popular opinion and rent for houses is above the roof (no puns intended). Hamburg is way fairer for a Nigerian in terms of jobs (relative). Your inability to understand basic German could mess up big opportunities for you and one could be left with crumbs if there are any available.

Sorry if this is a bit harsh but if you typed s fraction of what you asked here on Google, you would have found the answers in seconds.
Whichever way though, you didn't do anything absolutely wrong by asking still. Here are the full info both for you and for the benefit of others who may still need it.
