Hello,

I applied for a German student visa in winter section with the intention to initially study a German language course concurrently with my Master Programme, l was refused the visa because according to the consular staff, the letter of admission stated only German language class not Masters degree, l didn't know this because the admission letter was written in German and l didn't find time to look for a translator. I later contacted the school, they then sent me a new letter of admission for the master programme in English language. A German consular staff advised l should reapply for my student visa with a clear intent of study. I subsequently applied for my German student visa on the first week of December. Surprisingly, l haven't heard from the German consulate regarding the status of my visa application, l sent the consulate an email, they replied saying the will get back to me when they have any new information, l called the alien office in Germany, they said they haven't received my information yet and all my document are complete. A friend l met same day has pick up his visa. This development got me abit worried. While l am prayerfully waiting, l thought l should share my experience and seek advice from this platform.

Thank you
