seunstein: @geemana......for now,I don't know any yet.Only private placements by my department alumni.Thanks for this useful piece of information.

@seunstein do u think the owners of those houses would like u guys to pack urselves in their houses.a beg if its possible,me self no mind o.one alumni I Met said its better u search for yourself.that's what most people have been saying, even the Germans.

correctguy0900: Thanks everyone for your generous contributions, Please, i need a way out on my current problem with the Deutsche bank. My block account opening documents was sent to the bank by the German embassy since late July this year. By mid August, the bank mailed me that there was error with the figure i entered. I followed their instructions on the supplementary form attached to the email and sent it to the address provided which was received by Flemming in Frankfurt. Over two weeks now, i am yet to receive information from them. i have also sent them countless emails through the non customer form on the home page but no reply. The embassy interviewed me yesterday Thursday, the consular said there was nothing she could do as regard the Bank. I received a mail from the embassy today Friday with an instruction to fund my account in order to continue with the visa application process.

Please, i would appreciate any suggestion as i am currently confused on how else to reach the bank. Thanks y'all

fellow, I do not know if this might work accurately but in a bit to help you as I imagine myself in your trousers,
if you continue to write the bank as per a block account they might not reply you coz this is clearly stated in the account opening form....

I would advice you go to the embassy to express yourself and if possible they can contact the bank on your behalf.....they will definitely response to the embassy.

God will help you.
Peace.

it's totally not about packing ourselves in a flat.Its not the Nigerian way.we are far more organized than I can type at this time.But,it's strictly for the group.

abdkabir: Oh boy, you still dey this thread dey do fan boy since... Its team summer this time around
Better start making an effort... Before we go begin hear team winter from you next year again

Guy, its unfair and your comment is not encouraging...I have "Never" and will "Never" discourage anybody. even if you aim for Something bigger than you, i will always cheer you up. Nigeria is a country full of shambles and funny stuffs. Emeka and Beebee knows me better. Imagine, I have been trying to obtain My transcript since Last year.. ASUU went on 7months strike for the better part of last year. January 10th, I resigned from my previous job to allow me with full processing and concentration. I missed two admission in Austria, only to be called upon some weeks back about the readiness of my educational transcript... Are these stories encouraging at all?

Please ponder into this and stop the mockery.
According to Honourable Seyi "Let he that thinketh he standeth take heed, lest he fall."

because things are going on smoothly for you doesn't mean u are perfect. Watch it, lest you fall.. Please, lets cultivate the act of encouraging each others. we all know the situation in this country...everybody want a level of advancement in his/her career..

#noOffences Bruder..

In other words, I calmly received all your assessment..Realk1, ebele, eke40seven, omamofe, honourableseyi, seun and other peeps who i cant remember right now..God bless you real good.

May our effort never go in vain, and this week/month shall be our week/month of testimonies..
I will always try my best in encouraging my fellow Nigerians whether here or in diaspora..

The PDF file (application form) actually has no "form field" although I know I can use the insert text option.
Thanks though.

It is the DB Block Account form that you should filled on PC, the Visa form can be filled using pen

geemana: OK then...

Good evening great people,how are you all? I got admitted to study ICT in rhein and my resumption date is sept 15 but enrolment deadline is nov 15,hope am covered? Though already sent a mail requesting for my appointment date on friday(12am) but am yet to get any response from them yet..am hoping I get it tomorrow

@dolpaz thou art great. I extol thy maturity. we shall surely rejoice over thy case. Success is thine. I yet see the angels rejoicing over thy case and lo! it was in Deutschland.

To whom it may concern,
There is a school that's available at this moment for BSc admission into International Business Admin or something like that in Reutlingen UoAS, Baden Württemberg and it closes by October 15 I.e for the summer semester. With your Naija degree IELTS and TOEFL can be waived and no need for Uni-assist. Although their admission may require interviews after submission. You can also check for other English taught programs for masters and Bsc. Its a very good UoAS, one of the best. I don't have their link right now. search the school's official website.
Hurry!

@damsamty, speaking from experience, they will likely respond to you later tomorrow or most likely on Tuesday. So don't panic when you don't get it tomorrow. Then expect a date from 6 weeks, give or take (safe estimate). Probably, 2 weeks (worst case) max after interview if successful (it will be) to obtain the visa. Total = 8 weeks max (safe estimate) You are still on schedule considering your deadline.
These estimates are due to the fact that there a lot of applicants at this point in time and also considering the deadline for your programme.
My 2 cowries.

Hope ye find it useful.

Good luck!

Any thing happen, you know who to hold responsible.

Good luck!

ebele17:







Found this. Hope it helps!!!!




To fill Germany Student visa application form :

1. You Family Name (This should be exactly as in the passport)

2. You first name (This should be exactly as in the passport)

3. DOB in the format of dd/mm/yyyy. This format is the official German format.

4. Place of Birth : This is mentioned in your passport. Write the exact thing as is written in the passport. Do not add or substract anything.

5. Nationality : You must mention you current as well as any previous nationalities that you have given up. It clearly says each nationality should be stated.

6. Marital Status : Announce your marital status here. Strike out the non-applicable status with one single line in whichever language you are filling. If you are filling in English, and in case you are single, strike out the other three with one straight line. I would suggest, along with English, also strike out the bold German version as that is more legible and comprehendable and bigger in size. Even if you dont, it does not matter.

7. Spouse Details : This should of course only be filled if you are married. Follow the steps 1 to 5 in filling the details.

8. Children Details : This should of course only be filled if you are married. Follow the steps 1 to 5 in filling the details.

9. Father : Write your father's Family name in the first line and First name and second and any following names in teh second line exactly as in passport.

10. Mother : Write your mother's Family name in the first line and First name and second and any following names in teh second line exactly as in passport.

11. Passport or Other Travel Documents : Write PASSPORT in the first line. If you have any other travel document, write its name. The Passport number in the second line, date till which it is valid in the third line. Issued by (Maybe Passport officer or Assitant Passport officer) in the fourth line. The designation of the issuing authority is given in the stamp on the first page(the page immediately after the information page) in the Passport. Finally write the Date of issue in the last line

12. Authorization to return to : Write the place from where your passport is issued.

13. Entered Germany on : Not to be completed if the application is made outside the Germany. Just leave it blank.

14. Have you ever stayed in Germany before : Strike out whichever is not applicable with one single line. If you have been to Germany before, write yes and mention from and to and the place below.

15. Proposed Place of Residence : Now this is one place where everyone gets stuck. I think most of us do not have a place of residence finalized when we start our visa application. So, you can write the complete address of the Institute of your course ( and not the University's address) that is conducting your course. Be careful since it does asks for address and not just the City of your residence. I repeat, write the address of the Institute that is conducting your course.

16. Arrived on : Not to be completed if the application is made outside the Germany. Just leave it blank.

17. Do you intend to maintain your permanent residence outside the Federal Republic of Germany? If so, Where? : write yes if you intend to keep your current nationality. I suggest you to write yes as right now we are just going for studies and wanting to gain another Nationality is a matter of different decision at a different point of time. In the space below, write the country of your current Nationality.

18. Will you be accompanied by the members of your family? : My suggestion is write no. In case your parents or any other family member is planning to accompany you, they can apply for separate Schenghen visa at the time of departure which takes roughly 10 days to be issued.

19. How are you accommodated? : Not to be completed if the application is made outside the Germany. Just leave it blank and dont strike out anything.

20. Purpose of stay in Germany : Mention "STUDY" in the first line, Leave the second line blank.
Employer : Put a '-' (Hyphen) mark in this line
Name of educational establishment : Write the complete Name of your University.
Their addresses : Write the complete Address of your University.
Intended Employment : Put a '-' (Hyphen) mark in this line

21. Trade or Profession for which Trained :write your course name for which you are going.

22. Are you already in possession of a permit issued by a German labour office : Strike out with a single line whichever is not applicable.

23. Intended duration of stay in the Federal Republic of Germany : Now this is a tricky one. First of all, PLEASE enquire about any courses or any Pre-Course orientation happening in your course. Because the FROM that you give here, is the validity start date stamped on your Visa. For example my course is starting on 8th of October (imaginary) and I have a german language course organized by my University in the month of August till October. Also keep some time(maybe a week or so) before start of any course for you to complete all the post landing formalities without any hassle. So, I need to land in Germany on say, 8th of August. I would give the FROM as AUGUST, 2012. So the start of validity on Visa will say 1st August, 2012 and the validity expiry is exactly 90 days from that. You can land anyday in Germany after your validity starts. Now, if i do not know when my course is going to end (which month), I can write a tentative month in the TO section, say October, 2014. Dont worry here. Whatever timeline you mention here is just tentative. Even if you are not able to finish your course before the time that you have mentioned in the form, you will get Visa extension afterwards. All you need is to show them the finances when you try to extend it.

24. What are your means of subsistence? : Write "FINANCIAL SUPPORT BY PARENTS" or "EDUCATION LOAN" whichever is applicable. If you are being financially supported by any other source, like any other family member or a scholarship, write accordingly.

25. Have you ever been convicted? : Strike out whichever is not applicable. I hope everyone strikes out YES

26. Have you ever been expelled....................refused entry into Germany? : Write "YES" or "NO" whichever is applicable.

27. a) Do you suffer from any disease? Strike out whichever is not applicable. Be honest in mentioning this.
b) Do you have a health insurance cover for the Federal Republic of Germany? : All of us do not have a Health insurance from a German Carrier. We will get it once we reach there. So, write "NO. I WILL TAKE ONCE I REACH GERMANY".

PAGE 4: I hereby apply for a residence permit for 2 YEARS. Again this is just tentative. Strike out Days and Months. Write your complete present address, Place, Date and put your signature. Make sure the address you write falls under the jurisdiction of the embassy that you are applying to. They are likely to send you back if the address doesnt fall in their area. Paste the Visa photo in both the forms.

PS : You can show a travel insurance at the time of application valid for the period that you think you would be going, maybe for 1 month or 2. But I think it is not an important document. Atleast they didnt ask in Bangalore for this. Please confirm with your embassy.

Please refer your respective Embassy website for the docs to be attached with the application.
