Nice one bro. Yes lets get it rolling in. But do you really mean that .

are you referring to the motivation letter because that is the most difficult part of the application as 4500 character wont be enough..i had cut out many stuffs from my pre-composed application.

congratulations my bosses @hollaytan @obiwann and @Dehonourable my bbm padi.....

i remembered the day hollaytan told me he wanted to cancelled his interview cos there was no hope of funding the account.......i felt like crying....

i pray the Almighty Allah send help to every other soul still struggling with funding his/her blocked account...also may Allah make our going to Germany fruitful.

@Obiwann how far about the Nipost package....Garri must enter hamburg now..plenty plenty....

for #winter 2016 crew lets get rolling
i applied to only two schools
Msc Environmental Governance at Freiburg,
Msc Environmental Management at CAU Kiel.
I GOT ADMITTED AT CAU KIEL.
The application for kiel was online and free of charge,only scanned documents were required and an online motivation letter of not more than 4500 words including commas,full stops and space.
i hope this is useful to someone.

#iwasalsohelped

congratulations my G @xpensiveT........Barka Allahu fi ah.......throughly @ obiwann we don dey go one one......make i had this one...."jeje jeje we dey go oooo jeje we dey go o jeje.....action student na we dey go jeje....lol.....GODWINS HE ALWAYS DOES.

lmuhopeful:

Is it compulsory that the ticket be a return ticket or can a one-way ticket suffice?

One way will definitely work as we are on national visa.

Also how do I get a cheap means of converting Naira to Euro without going to the mallams? I am gonna try Union bank but I would also appreciate other suggestions.
...called my account officer at union bank some days ago and he confirmed that they do sell PTA (personal travel allowance) but only at their HQ in Lagos.....with PTA you will be buying Euro using the bank official rate......All banks do sell PTA but most of them will complain of not having foreign currency at hand.....Another option is for you to travel with your Master/visa ATM card....

for PTA you only need your passport with valid visa and travel ticket

thanks boss @naijaobi.....please give us details of this Nipost package including cost......so make den no mag us.

na English someone can't comprehend for here oooo....what if you now start reading in German.......shaking my head.

Am a nurse, am new in d house.
welcome sister or na brother nurse.......try reading just 2-3 pages backward...you get your answer there......

@obiwann....you can google search "Royal Air Maroc Travel experience"...and do a critical analysis of people's experiences.........and about NIPOST ...its like i will also like to explore the possibility and hopefully i will be able to fly my beloved Emirate airline.

@oye......you are definitely right, from the research i have been doing since last week....i came to a conclusion that wakanow offers the best rate even better than the airline website(due to exchange rate issues).......but if not for luggage allowance of 30kg on emirate airline..they would have been my choice.......All in all i will also be flying Turkish airline.......23kg X 2.....as you know now 1 bag for foodstuffs... lol......when are you travelling boss ?

NB: There is nothing Royal about Air Maroc oooooooo (from a family experience)......The Royal na wash.....then no dey go Hamburg cos Wakanow no they list them for me

@pompido.....congrats bro.....kiel here we come...lol all the best to everyone still in the struggle...."ope lo ma jasi"....

thanks ..@xpensiveT, kelvinpam, lakesidepapa, Rayhut.

make them grant you guys in time so that we can gather money charter one airline.....lol

Alhamdulilah Robi l' alameen.....
At this juncture i announce to you my e-family that i have received an email from the embassy stating that my visa is ready for pick up.........had my interview on the 27th of July, and i funded my on the 5th of August.....

Sincere appreciation to everyone who as contributed to these success story....God bless you all and grant your desires........

waiting for my bosses..... @Eke,pompido,XpensiveT,hollaytan,obiwann,williamso, and co

its been wonderful to be part of these DO IT YOURSELF GERMAN TRAVEL FORUM.....

#Teamkiel...#Teamwinter2015

@twinkle Etihad only have flights to Berlin and Frankfurt.., they don't fly Hamburg (Northern Germany).....Most importantly, the cost of the flight depends on when you make the reservation..The nearer to your travel date the higher the cost........All in all Emirate and Turkish airline remains the best option most especially if you flying to Hamburg.(low cost and flexibility)....

congratulations boss@ kennyoguns

[quote author=Adexhat post=36876056]Hello house,

Is there anyone going to or have someone in Schleswig-Holstein here, Kiel or Flensburg? I'll like to link up with such pls.

present......heading to kiel this winter

@damilarbenz ..thanks boss for the hint......like how much is required for the subsequent year....which city are you?

[left][/left]

daimlerbenz:
A word of caution for all the guys coming in. For your VISA renewal, don't allow any buddy push you into getting the 1year VISA required for your studies. You can do it when your 3 months issued in Lagos is about finishing. Also, if you have a community of Naija peeps, you guys can stagger the renewal so that in 2016 summer/winter, you can crowdsource funds for for 2nd year renewal. This is coming from experience. Ciao!

please explain better boss..ich verstehe nicht.

[quote author=ogagaejay post=36611646]Which airline can I get the least expensive ticket?
Emirates and Turkish airline

@Nathan2222
Form A is used to pay for any official bills abroad ..,so far you have documents backing it up..e.g school fees,hospital bills, accommodations.

The Form A is a kind of regulatory parameter from CBN.

Traditionally the money is meant to be paid directly to the official account of the receiving party(school,hospital or hotels).

We are having issues with many banks because we are paying directly to our personal accounts abroad and that we shall still have access to the money eventually when we get abroad.

So most of the banks are not familiar with paying into personal accounts.

Few of the banks has flexible policy/think outside the box and with all the necessary documents they do process the Form A for us.......

These are my personal conclusions from critical analysis of banks within Ibadan metropolis.


NB
German class will soon be commencing at the Department of Foreign Languages, University of Ibadan...let's relate if you are interested

Ceeesaw:

Visa is not something to toy with. If a certain document that was/is mandatory is no longer mandatory then people will need to see the evidence so as not to make any mistake. Simply saying it, is not enough.
For msc application, we automatically submit a document older than 5 years (secondary school cert) so it may not apply for msc students. (that is what I think anyway)
If you have any document supporting this changes please share with us..

Good morning all,
Just decided to kept mute on you asking me about proof of the documents/arrangement in use now because someone posted that few pages back and everybody that did their interview afterward confirms the authenticity ..,which am also doing because i had my interview yesterday......(you might include any document you dim fit but just to clarify that its no more on the new list and you won't be asked for it).

@Futurewise
For me to be able to ask her questions after the interview kinda tell you how the interview went...Alhamdulilah once again.....thanks to every contributing soul on Nairaland.
Maybe i should just recap...how it went after the main interview......
(The VO had told me to put the phone down and she has did same with her headset.

VO: Already packing my files and telling me that am done with the interview but i have to wait back for my biometrics as they having issues with their internet.

Me: I have some enquiries to make ma'm

VO: kindly do that .......(responding with a bright face ).
Note: During the interview i have already told her i had initiated the process of funding my blocked account but i am yet to be debited.

Me: A friend of mine intend using a sponsorship letter for his studies, through his uncle that resides in Germany but the uncle has travelled out and couldn't get him the letter for now...Can my friend booked for an appointment using the the blocked account and probably have his interview and afterwards when his uncle is back in Germany can he switch to using a sponsor.

VO: After the interview ?? No, his application would have been processed by then..so he MUST fund the account.

Me: Thank you......hmmmmm so do i make flight reservations (she's already on her feet making photocopies but still listening to me).

VO: Though i understands its cheaper to book way ahead, but just try to hold on....please.......you should understand....(politely)....

Me: Thank you Ma'm.

VO: You welcome(with a smile).

Godwins...., He always does.....#Teamkiel #Teamwinter

Nice one Sir @observer ...i did try uploading the list..
