@Devdev

Did tensa tell you they were male before you addressed them, twice, as "bro"? Or are you looking to troll again like you normally do?

I'm sorry but I really don't understand..

I wanna understand

Isn't Tensa a guy?

accelion:
I still need one more experienced WordPress developer with sound knowledge of the above languages.

Unfortunately, the guys aren't satisfied with the portfolios shared. They need someone who has done a whole lot with WordPress, etc.

If you are based in Lagos, that will be a plus, as I'd like to meet you.

You can use the email address provided to share the requested details.

I already got one person but there is still space for another.

Let me follow you for future opportunities

Enskynelson:
Drop your programme and I can send you a guide

Hi Ensky.

Happy New month to you.
Please, I want to know If I miss the 1st TMA, Can I still have access to It when I want?

How many weeks grace do they give before TMA submission?

Enskynelson:
It's not on the current calendar. So, just be checking all the spaces and forums like this.
YES... You got all those costs correctly. Semester reg is 36k.

Love you!

Thank you so much for your time

Enskynelson:
I hope it is B.Sc. Bus Admin you are referring to

Yes, Bsc.

Thank you so much Ensky.

Really appreciate.

I've got two last questions;

When is 1st TMA starting ? The new calender doesn't carry that.

Secondly, course registration Is still 2,000 for 2 units and 2,500 for 3 units, right?
Exams Reg Is still 1k?


I'm trying to know how much I will pay for 1st semester Bus Admin.

Enskynelson:
Drop your programme and I can send you a guide

Thank you very much!

Course - Bus. Admin.

How do I go about the TMA too

Enskynelson:
At the point of verification, that's where you will likely have issues. It's not done by proxy as you will have to present your passports and be seen present physically unless you know someone, a staff who personally knows you at the Lagos Study Centre.

Thank you!

Do you have a copy of the academic calendar?

Secondly, how do I start reading on my own?

I really don't know the courses we would be taking.

Modified:
I guess It's not possible cos 1st TMA starts by August.. Can't wait till then.



Phew!

I'm confused

Enskynelson:
Your understanding is very accurate on my explanation. Very right. It's every semester. Your first semester is 36k + course and exams reg, subsequently is 18k + course and exams reg.

Hi Ensky,
Quick question please.


I want to start my application for First semester but my problem Is,
I want my study center to be In Lagos but I'm currently not In Lagos now but I'll be coming to Lagos by September.

Can someone help me do the whole registration and clearance In Lagos without me being there physically?

I really don't want to register In the study center here cos of the whole Issue with Changing of Study center(that's what I heard).

So, Is it possible?

Excellent111:
Oga relax, the info on the first page didn't specify whether the requirement was for Bsc or Msc, it was all general.

Besides it's a simple enquiry, what is with the "spoon feed"? Did i ask you for links to admission/scholarship application pages?

These abroad based people and attitude,TUEH!.

You are actually the one with an attitude. TUEH!

TIPS FOR NIGERIANS COMING TO GERMANY FOR STUDIES.

Note: these are my views, so don't fight...

For almost three years, in Germany, my advice to a young Nigerian coming here for studies.

1. Learn the Language if you can before coming; at best, start learning in Nigeria
2. Never study a course you are not down for, don't struggle in an area that is not a good fit for you.
3. Do not focus on lager jobs when you arrive. It's a bad deal. I know it may be difficult, but focus more on work student position in a company focusing on things related to your course of study.
4a. I would advise, you take the first six months of your Blocked account-sponsored stay in Germany to intensively apply for a work student position in a company rather than start a lager job from the first go. I understand some of you may have to return the funds you collected from people. If that is the case, start applying for work student positions in Nigeria. Those in IT have a good chance. I have heard of a UNN student working for an IT firm in Germany in a work student position. He receives a monthly stipend of like 1500 euros for 80 hours per month of work.

4b. The most valuable assets you have in your first 2 years here are the Internet, constant power supply and your student status. Many fail to understand the power of this resource. They undermine it or take for granted the opportunity that has been presented before them. Don't spend your time streaming videos always, engage the internet for productive uses. Don't be deceived, time flies in Germany. Before you know it, 2 years is gone. Maximise these resources for your own gain, learn a skill or software, your school may have the premium version software, ask from your uni library or international office, there is numerous software you can get the premium version for free. Don't waste this opportunity, your competition is on a global scale.

5. it's wise to spend your blocked account money with a PETER OBI mindset.

6. You must be intentionally social in DE to enjoy and gain the international student experience in a country like DE. This is because of language and cultural barriers, but if you have attended to point (1) above, you are fine.

7. Covid 19 is over, so you guys would be coming in at a better time than I did. I can't overemphasise that your study is the main reason you are in Germany (at least officially); do well to keep things straight. However, don't miss out on other opportunities, especially travel and continuous learning opportunities (e.g. summer schools, conferences etc.). Some of these continuous learning opportunities are fully funded.
I combine my desire to travel around Europe with learning something new and adding some certificates to my portfolio.
I have since visited Lithuania, Poland, Ireland and other cities in Germany to attend one summer school, workshop or conference. All were fully funded.

8. Build network and friends while in Germany. If this is important to you and your career plans, please consider doing this intentionally. You must be intentional, quiet and wise about it, don't be "standoffish". Germans or say Europeans don't warm up to foreigners quickly, so don't be like that...., its not so deep. I trust you understand what i mean here.

9. In contrast to what you may have heard, appreciate the Nigerian community if you find one in your city. Its a big help in socialising and finding people to argue about NIGERIA occasionally. Your Nigerian community can be of great help. However, do not be petty. Don't bring bad behaviour here. For instance, the Nigerian student community in Darmstadt is lovely, with quality Nigerians who are cool-headed, fun-loving and exciting. We have had many parties that are the pride of black people in this city. We are gracious, LOUD, BLACK, and PROUD.
In summary, we get sense.

10. Appreciate the relationships you are living behind in Nigeria and keep them cordial. Yes, I understand some people feel the need to lock up and ignore people back home. Well, I am not one to tell you how to treat or behave toward your friends. My point is, you may need one or too assistance from family and friends back home. So keeping it cordial is fine. Some may ask you for money because you are now in Europe, where money grows on trees. Well, it's up to you; if you give them that impression, then deal with it: Na, you sabi.

Until I use it sha

How did it go?

What's the rate?

heybaby12:
It all depends on what you like and what you here for.

I can't be cracking my head for school, plus job and all. I decided to change school and course for something more practical and didn't require much as Maths would have.

Mathematics, Engineering is not beans here mostly when you still want to mix school and work. Some ppl have the brains for it but I don't.

Ps. If you come here and the course is difficult make sure you research very well and change schools before your 3rd semeter to avoid stories that touch.

I changed school in 2019 and I did not regret it. I have finished and finished the same time I would have if I stayed back in my previous school.

Wow!
Thank you very much for this.

Thank you!

Thanks sir, I can't leave my career for a woman. Only a fool will do such especially a rewarding and a demanding career like neurosurgery or other surgical specialty, my specialty is the hardest to get into any where in the world, my hospital accept two neurosurgical residents each year to know how hard it is, what I just need is companionship and I'll do as you say. Thanks sir
