Well done guys for all your kind responses. I have 2 requests?

Who knows other means of obtaining English as a medium of instruction in Lagos. My school of graduation joint non-academic staff have been on strike for the past 75days making it impossible to obtain.
Secondly, who can assist in prompt payment of uni-assist fees? Want to beat the 1st of march increment deadline.
Gracias

Facing similar challenge. Just heard yesterday (while I was making plans to visit my school) that non acad staffs are on strike and thus I can't take my transcript from them.

what are the benefits of learning German language at a German institute(Abj/Lag)....... apart from communicating freely ova there,,,, the money they are calling is wot i dont have,,,, thinking of learning the language locally with a man i know that teaches German.. gurus pls advice me

Apart from the language helping you to integrate better, learning in Nigeria is cheaper. Goethe Institut in Lagos currently charges 55,000 naira per semester(3 months). You can learn the language by which ever means but it will be good if you can obtain the international certificate of which the exam is done only in Lagos at some specific dates. You may google Goethe Institut, Lagos for more information.

Yes..few organisations here give scholarship.but the requirement are stringent with rigorious selection process.

Happy saturday to you all.


AS i do hear from people that it is advisable one says NO if one is being asked of a relative in Germany?

I am confused with this response in My own case, where My admission letter carries THE address of My distance relative in Germany because he helped to process My uni.assist application and also received some docs from University on My behalf.


THE question is what will be My response if they ASK me - Do i have a relative in Germany?

Please i need your response. Thanks

Happy Weekend to you all.
Had my interview on 22/02/2018.

Some of the questions are:
What do you want to study?
Why the course?
Can you speak German?
Why Germany?
Why not USA, UK or Canada?
What was your undergraduate project all about?
What do you know about Germany?
What's your plan after your studies?
Where do you wish to work after your course?

These are the ones I can remember now. Guten Morgen onces again!

There will be economic (job-related) and social (integration) problems if you have no knowledge of German on arrival. Speaking from experience as I had none when I got here... And it's even more expensive (time/money) to learn it here (I paid approximately 200€ per level/month for an intensive program and that was the cheapest I could find even with 40% discount)

However, if your study program is in English, you should have no (or maybe very little) academic issues...

Mods: I do not know why my post was hidden and I was banned for asking for assistance by your anti-spam bot and it's honestly quite annoying! I had 2 gereman words in my post, and 1 of them is a district in a city!!! Damn!!!

Back to my post...
honourableseyi:


If you need temporary accommodation in Berlin for a month or two. PM

My honourable, could you also be of assistance for longterm accommodation (apartment, not WG) in the middle (don't want to get banned again so I can't write the district name. But it also starts with "M" ) district in Berlin? embarassed

It's not too urgent though

1.I was once told on dis thread DAT business courses don't thrive much there after MSC graduation.. How about if the person learns German or secures internship during summer wyl still in skul

2.Read a stuff somewhere I think on quora or so,that ppl spend more than the usual normal 2 yrs fr their MSC program, as passing in German skuls is difficult

3.for the second year of the MSC,am I to show another €8940 ?

4.How long bfr u can start working off campus wen u resume

And lastly grin

5.As a student there,can u visit the shengen countries like France,Belgium...... Cos me don dey dream of visiting France or Belgium by December during Xmas break.......Read n play abeg

Will definitely increase your chances greatly... Remember though that nothing is cast in stone


2.Read a stuff somewhere I think on quora or so,that ppl spend more than the usual normal 2 yrs fr their MSC program, as passing in German skuls is difficult

Personally, why hurry? Would you rather finish in 2 years with no knowledge of German, no internship (refer to point 1 above) and no employment prospects or take an extra year or more and improve yourself? I know what I chose and I have zero regrets.
I also personally don't think passing is difficult. If you study hard you wouldn't fail (from my opinion and experience)


3.for the second year of the MSC,am I to show another €8940 ?
Depends on the city. For example, I know you don't have to do that in Kiel/Berlin but you have to in Passau


4.How long bfr u can start working off campus wen u resume
I wouldn't advise it, but with (good?) information, you can start working black from the day you arrive. Legitimate work would take a few months though until you get you work permit (2? 3? 4?)


And lastly grin

Sure. You can visit all countries in the Schengen region without applying for visa cheesy

No, not all the universities/courses are under uni assist. Some even accept online applications. Ur choice of course will actually determine alot of the other factors, Jst check daad.de for ur course.

To add to what has been mentioned, I'd advise you not to run from uni-assist. Because of the money, less people apply and thus, less competition for places, increasing your admission chances wink

Re: General German Student Visa Enquiries Part 4 by Nobody: 6:46pm On Feb 24, 2018
Hi guys. Wanna appreciate this thread for all the good info sharing over the past months I've been applying. Got admitted to University of Southern Westphalia (Soest) for this summer; would be going to Lag next week for my visa interview, haven't funded, and as things turned out to be, probably won't.
Ran into some life issues and I may have to postpone the whole thing to winter or next year, I don't know.
But anyways, I booked the interview already on Feb. 28th, so I wanna ask, even though I know I may not go through with the whole funding process cus long story short, I don't have the means as I thought I would, is it still advisable to turn up for the visa interview?
Thanks guys.
