I will answer your questions in the most civil way possible but am not gonna do justice to the whole questions if I don't chip in this observation. You have not really digested what you read on the thread and you have not done any personal search as advised.
I will be spoonfeeding you by answering the questions because all the answers are on the pages of uni assist.
but whichever way, it will be answered but do some personal research yourself.

1.You pay a certain amount for the first application and registration and subsequent smaller amount for corresponding number of subsequent schools you are choosing. I can't remember the exact amount now for the first and subsequent ones, check uni assist.


2. Also boldly written on their website. In most cases, the application is not by choice, courses and schools under uni-assist will specifically ask you to apply through them or nothing. However, the major benefit is that they act as your agent in getting admission and one set of document is enough to apply to as many school as possible.

3. I think you will have to. check their website, the guidelines are there.

4. phew! it depends on the school. Check the deadline for the school you are applying to. A few has closed many have started and some have not opened. check DAAD for the deadlines of the school you selected.

Hope thy question are answered.

Fare thee well.
thanks a lot

Hello house , have gone through the previous threads but for the purpose of better understanding and enlightment have got some questions.. Am thinking of appying for summer admission through uni-assist,
1. I want to knw if single payment I make covers multiple application to diffferent univ or I will have to pay per application?
2. What are the benefits of applying through uni-assits,
3. Do I have to send a single certified copy of my documents
4. Can I still meet up for March/april admission.
Please I will be highly appreciative if my questions ate kindly answered............thanks to u all

READ, READ, READ!! It has been said time and time again that German Education involves a great deal of individual work/research. Even American Exchange students studying there were shocked at the intensity of individual research work. Point being ,If American Educated students were shocked at this, what do you think those from Nigeria will do. So the earlier you inculcate the attitude of reading, the better for you.
Go to Uni-assist Official website and search out the answers to your questions (1-3). It's there in black and White or read a few pages back of this thread.
As for your number 4, you can only get that from your intended school of study. Search for schools using daad and check for their application deadlines. I will advise you to hurry because most of their deadlines have already elapsed.

Pls waiting on answers to this(from different contributors will be so appreciated).Thanks a bunch to all the awesomes.

The rate at which people are lackadaisical towards reading is becoming alarming. The answer to your question is already on the page of your post. But,of course you did not know because you didn't READ!!

All necessary documents, together with the duly signed printout of your online application, must be sent to the University of Münster before the end of the relevant application period. The following documents are required:

◾Foreign school-leaving certificate
◾Bachelor’s certificate
◾CV containing no gaps
◾Evidence of adequate knowledge of German

Good day my ogas,

It means your Waec and most times your first school leaving certificate also...I know you don't understand German, so why bother to apply even after seeing the fourth option listed. adequate knowledge of German I think is at least B2. you don't wanna be in a classroom where you don't understand go or come.

The fact that people who had previously gone have not run back here reporting that they were chased back because they couldn't fulfil their financial requirements shows you the kind of country Germany is. Just like you, most people are on their own. You should be one sending back home self. Na you suppose double the money self. You dey worry about how the thing go diminish. You no be proper naija guy?
One thing I know is..If all these people have gone are still there legally and surviving and prospering, yours will not be different whether they require you to deposit the money every year or not.

Just go there and make sure you relate with people there already and you will be fine, however, a caveat is there for those who are super lazy and not ready to sweat.

1.The single payment suffice for all application.e.g if u r applying to 3 schools,u pay 75euro for d 1st application and 15euro for theremaining 2,so uwill be paying a total of 105euro.
2.Uni-assist evaluates ur docs and send to schools whc u applied to. They only require a single set of documents for several university applications.my oga @ d top cld add theirs
3.U only nid to send a single set of docs to uni-assist.
4. Just ensure u meet up wit d deadline I.e urdocs must get to the sch u applied or uni-assist(if u are applying thru uni-assist).

Ndyoo made a valid point in pointing out the fourth requirement you listed.
Check well, if the school are compulsorily asking for a German language proficiency without any special waiver or consideration then you must provide it. No go waste your money o.
CHECK well.

Your favour is non negotiable. It will surely turn out positive in Jesus name. Busy with exams, that is why I have been away for a while. We all await the good news from you. I salute the general house; may the Lord crown our effort and sanction our heart desires in Jesus name. Shalom

My school gave me option of using courier to send my transcript which ll cost about 13k each and I want to apply to about 4 schools. Cost of transcript is 5k each too. This money no easy. Anybody with experience on Nipost regular should advice pls.

You should have read at least 2 pages backward as full info about this was trashed. Anyway, you can use the Nipost regular but ensure it is registered so they could give you a tracking for it. Should arrive Germo within 10 working days approximately, cost between 450 - 1000Naira. Hope this helps..

Thanks for your response, I actually read d last 2 pages u talked about but still have question.
Its my university that will send the transcript directly, they only invite someone using courier to come over to pay for it , and in d process he will have the tracking number, but as for Nipost, the school just send it like that, student will not have opportunity to register it. That's y I asked how reliable is Nipost on unregistered mail.

My school did the same (Lautech) and I was even sending to Finland then.I checked d price for FedEx and it was 12k told them abeg send it through nipost of 500 naira.12 days later, I got a mail from Finland DAT my transcript Don land. So Bros let dem send it with nipost. Dey av a tracking for it cus na registered dey use. I sincerely do not want the issue of nipost to appear on this thread again cus at present nipost is the only federal govt parastatal that has been rebranded and working effectively. If I have to send any document ten times over, nipost all the way. Even stuffs that I bought from China got to me through nipost not one of them was tampered with.

Dear sir,
It could have been way more helpful if the countries you travelled to include US, Canada or any Shengen countries within the last 24 months, although the UK there is an advantage.
However, this are the requirements for travel visa as provided on their site

Please note that the application will only be accepted when it is complete, i.e. when all the required documents are attached. Should there be documents missing the application will be rejected and the applicant has to apply afresh for a new appointment.
