Hello Nlanders, I am glad to be in this forum as discovered intensively educative. was really moved to join on here anyway.
However, I have just a little question I would love to ask experts here to give me a ''candid advice''.
I recently gained admission to study M.Sc Public Health in a German University precisely in Hamburg, I processed everything myself by filling their online application form within the deadline and thereafter was instructed to mail all supporting documents to them via the snail mail (NIPOST) which I did. After a while precisely about 2months interval, I received an email that they have accepted me and I should check my admission letter from their portal directly to download same which I did. On the admission letter (3 pages), I was instructed to fill the page 3 , sign and return back to them via post alongside other documents like insurance confirmation with a German insurance company and then, make a payment of 298.50 Euros to be credited into their German bank account of which they provided the details, for the semester contribution of which they gave me the breakdown and told me that without it, I cannot get the semester documents which would be needed for my Visa application. I contacted the recommended German insurance and got the confirmation from them within 2 days and to commence the monthly payment of 77 Euros upon my arrival in Germany. Now, my concern is this, do you advice me to make the semester contribution to the school so they would send me the semester papers as said by the admissions officer and also, what if I don't have the money (1.7m) for opening blocked account but rather, a relative wants to send me the letter of sponsorship for instance, do you think that would be respected just as the blocked account is? Also, the school charges a tuition fee of about 2400 per semester. Do you think the embassy would ask me to pay that first before leaving Nigeria for instance? Though the school said the tuition fee is only paid upon arrival in Germany. Conclusively, what if I have the letter of sponsorship (Verpflichtungserklarung) plus open the blocked account with an opening balance of 4000 Euros, whats my possibility of success with the embassy? Please, I need expect to guide me carefully on this because I also have an admission offer from the UK and I am thinking on the best option to take on. Thanks and God Bless Y'all.

Hello
From your comment, if you have a relative in Germany willing to sign the Verpflichtungserklaerung for you, its equivalent to the blocked account and the German embassy won't ask you to pay for the school fees, IMHO cos the Verpflichtungserklaerung states the person signing that document is responsible for all your expenses during studies.

Go for it but the school expensive sha, why not apply to the tution free schools.
Cheers!

@ Pricelessmr, I did B.Sc Medical Physiology and yourself? Please, house, I am still waiting for your response as I would utilize within the shortest possible time. Thank you.

Ok. Mine is MBBS(Med & Surg). I also have engineering background. I considered MPH but since it's professional master, u pay high tuition, I discarded the idea. I'm currently looking at Msc Biomedical Engineering cos of visa and may eventually switch to EE.

My advice to you: If u ve d money, MPH in Uk may be better for u . You pay close to 2million naira for tuition at the end in Germany and u need B1 if not B2 to enjoy ur study to d fullest and possibly work there. If u can afford all these, Germany is good, else consider UK as far as Public health is concerned.

Sponsorship letter is honoured provided appropriate conditions are met. In that case u wouldn't need any blocked account.
I'm not an expert though. Let d ogas give there advice. Thank u.

@Dannie, have u considered Msc Biotechnology, bioinformatics, and allied courses that are tuition free yet close to if not better than Public health in global relevance. IMHO, I rather spend that on MBA.
It all depends on ur ultimate choice and game plan.

thanks so much. Engineering sells everywhere especially in Germany and UK unlike medical field in Germany is no profit area when compared. Its pretty expensive though. the UK gave me the their offer as pay 3000Pounds before CAS is given and then 2300 again on/b4 Jan at enrollment in the school and then the other balance 3800, not stated date of payment. All together- 9100 Pounds but Germany says you pay the 2400 plus the semester contribution of 298.50 Euros every semester. Now, my fear is this,UK student law is too strict unlike Germany and they have given ample time to make the payments . UK wouldn't allow me to give them stories when its time due for the fee payment . That's another thing or do you think they will ?

Thanks for the info. I actually didn't find any school for MPH-Public Health that is free tuition in Germany or do you have any referral(s) for me please? Thanks again.

Firstly, you won't find any public health Program that's free in Germany except u get scholarship or grant.
UK is strict but things must also be done in Germany according to stipulated laws. It comes down to ur arrangement with d school..

Do u know German language is a requirement for d course in Hamburg? I see ur heart is in Germany. Then go for it. My only concern is that u should never think that doing menial jobs in Germany will pay such fees per semester. Hussle some more cash here in naija from family & friends. Just get ur calculation right to avoid frustration over there.

Applied for international business and foreign trade in school of applied science worms. The processing fee is 25 euros but no Nigerian bank wanna help me send the money. Can a person in Germany help me pay the money??

@Dannie, I just checked, there could be free tuition MPH programs in Germany eg LMU but they are likely 100% German taught courses and that's d tradeoff.
You must pay once it's done in English or mixed. Anything is possible., do deep search, there could just be an English taught MPH with little or no tuition fee.... Don't hessitate to let us know if u find such. Good luck!

ibn akogun: Applied for international business and foreign trade in school of applied science worms. The processing fee is 25 euros but no Nigerian bank wanna help me send the money. Can a person in Germany help me pay the money??

it not possible for any Nigerian bank to refuse that offer.. Except you are not doing things the right way..
Visit any gtbank, open an euro dorm account... Then you are good to go, even if na 1 euro, you one transfer.. Its not the bank business, since they ll deduct all there commissions and telex charge from your account

Go to any FBN or. GTB branch...open a euro dorm. Account and deposit like 100euros....then u can transfer...u will be charged abt 40euros for foreign fee or so and some other. charges (telex and swift or so)...

Alles Gute...

huge thanks and God bless u. Actually fell in love with Germany when I read lot of their students simple rules. Thanks so much as I would find schools and sure let everybody know once I get any free or little tuition schools thereafter. You also shouldn't hesitate to let us know here should in case you find any too. Stay great.

Passing A1 is the simplest of all exams its very very very simple just like princeolu pointed out.
But you really need to dedicate at least 2hrs a day, try and learn new verbs everyday minimum 5 and make sentences with them.

Alright boss, thanks. Infact I have been doing that for the past weeks now, sometime more than two hours. Believe me I'm loving it. I will be waiting and bitte keep us apprised. May God bless your endeavour. Danke
