PLS WHO KNOWS THE SALARY SCALE FOR ASP

SAMUELS3:
Kudos to the gurus, you guys are doing a great job. Your contributions has changed some many destinies.

Please help a brother Abeg, masters applicants. I have gotten 5 Univ. to apply to through DAAD, all these 5 Univ do not require Uni- assist for submissions.
I also have 2 Univ that offer my desire courses but I have to apply for through Uni-assist.
My questions are;
1. For the one that does not require me to apply through uni-assist, do I need application form to submit together with my credentials(Degree, CV, reference letter,motivation letter etc)

2. For the ones that require uni-assist how can I apply and pay their fees.

3. How much can we say €8,000 is now in naija currency. Is It ok to be using parallel market rate or bank rate for the budget due to unstable forex

I'm sorry if my questions sound like a lazy man questions. I have been read previous thread (part 1) though, (am still reading) but I need to fast track to beat the deadline for submission.

Thank you in anticipation.

Cc: all gurus, Bandeco, eke.....

God bless.

Hi everyone, this forward and backward talk is irritating. Learn to appreciate the truth from people's experiences. I'm an expert at UK visa online applications. The truth is, they don't trust Nigerians out there and when you talk about SOA's, the total cost of your trip, including feeding, transportation, housing and even allowance is calculated by the VOs for the duration of your stay in any foreign country. Dem no even want make you come their country sef, not to talk of staying there, I've been denied a UK visa before along with my parents, and an immmigration lawyer helped us repackage our documents and you would not imagine what my parents had to submit, original copies of Marriage Certificate, pictures of my family, pictures of the Petrol Station owned by my parents, Certificate of Incorporation of the company, letters from the company stating that they are entitled for a vacation and are actually due for it and the trip would be sponsored by the company, company's SOA, Personal and Joint SOAs of my parents, my brother's (who we were going to visit) payslip for the past 4 months, his wedding invitation card, pictures of his traditional wedding that was done in Lagos (cos' na white wedding we wan go attend for that side), all his stamped passport and biodata pages, our vaccination cards, we even had to submit the deed of the the land, the company property was on, and deeds of the other lands owned by my dad. We were granted the UK visa when all this proof was presented and all original documents including pictures were returned.

Now back to my matter, I was denied my first canadian visiting visa in 2012, reason was they were not sure I would return to Naija, my sister decided to use study permit format in 2015, I was denied as well, but it was partly our fault, my SOA and Mum's SOA (cos' dad is now late) wasn't submitted. Before reapplying in December, I had to include the following documents (scanned cos' its an online application):
- my dad's death certificate
- my dad's last will and testament (showing the properties belonging to my mum, sister and I).
- pictures of my inherited property.
- my SOA
- mum's personal SOA
- Company's SOA
- Board Resolution letter of the company
- letter stating that my mum has approved my going to study and she would still support me alongside my sponsor (my sister).
- Sponsor's SOA and payslip of 4 months
- my Uniben Certificate
- my WAEC Certificate
- my Uniben PGD Admission letter of 2014
- Affidavit of Age Declaration
- Biodata page of the Medicals done in my previous application (which now acts as Upfront Medicals).
- pictures of my sister (sponsor) and I, mum and I
- one or two dad's funeral photos
- Humber Admission letter (still the first one from the previous application).
- Humber Acceptance and Sit Confirmation letter
etc

[s][/s]For those bragging about Germany, my brother who got married to a German girl last year is still here in Naija learning the German language, he's taking the language exam in April and has to pass it. He was denied a visiting visa last year that's why the girl had to come get married to him here last year. Theirs isn't so easy to get too. Nigeria isn't strict on granting visas to other countries, that's why you see that they can freely enter this country with little or no hassles.
To me, I'd say Canada is more lenient than UK or Germany.

gurus i hail ooo!
after waiting for my gcms file for almost 2 months, they sent it to me on friday (94 pages) most pages were my cic forms and personal docs of me and my sponsor.
Truly canad and US share information, it was stated there, they matched some of my biography with the once i submitted at the US embassy in
2013,
2014
and 2015 when i applied for student visa which was refused i was advised by US consular in my last interview to try my education else where thats why i picked canada.
this is the officer's note:
Docs n notes reviewed conclusion: Limited previous travel demonstrated - Limited family ties - applicantis single and young with no listed dependants - concerns over personal finances. Majority of financial documents sumitted are for a third party. Not satisfied that applicant will readily have access to the available funds stated on application forms. Applicant has not provided compelling reasons to study in canada. Unclear why applicant would incur cost of relocating to canada to rather that undertake similar course of study in country of residence. Concerns applicant is using study permit as means to facilitate entry to canada rather than educational advancement. Based on available information, i am not satisfied that applicant will leave canada after end of authorised stay. Study permit refused..
application date :
2015/nov.
sponsor: Uncle Dad's brother. (US citizen) medical doctor.
reason: my dad is late that why he is funding me
statement of account: $100,000usd
course nursing
school: conestoga college
fees: $13750 (paid part tuition of $6750) to conestoga
reasons for refusal ticked; Travel history, personal asset and financial issues, purpose of visit, family ties in canada and nigeria.

To all in the trend: i need your input, if there is any need applying again cos i dont even know where to start tackling these issues. honestly i am tired and frustrated. i have spent a lot of money on US and canada

DanIndia:
Na like this una take dey confuse people.
Who told you Germany is easier to gain admission in ?
In fact, it is even difficult than Canada.
1. You need IELTS just as Canada
2. You need to learn the language to a certain level.
3. There is a huge competition because of the free education system. Lots and lots of people apply and you need concrete application documents (strong SOP etc).
4. The VISA is hard to acquire at the Embassy. They even have an Interview System
5. You need to even have about 2million naira to deposit to your German account before Visa acquisition.
And who told you there aren't "great" Engineering schools in Canada and that the economy isn't "Robust"?

Regardless of whatever reasons you've listed and that you're going to list, it's easier for you to Integrate in the Canadian society than the German's. Trust me, it's not even safe in some cities in Germany.

Churkie:
@ Bandeco, @thesoj, please do you know schools in Germany that offer Msc in Petroleum Engineering. Do they accept Nigerian graduates with 2.2?

staydogged:
Please do you know so much about germany, i wont mind to be infomred on it. Or is there a forum for it on nairaland?

thesoj:
Excellent advice. Germany is an excellent backup plan. Don't know if I agree with your arguments about Germany being better, especially as you ultimately will need to learn a new language (tho a lot of their MSc programs are in English) as opposed to Canada where integration would be easier. Yet, I wholeheartedly agree with you that it is an excellent second choice to Canada because of its excellent economy, fantastic engineering tradition, ease of staying after school, and more.

estherdim:
thank you sir,
already planing to port to another country,still waiting for a more convenient country to fit in for my course,that won't pay much compared to canada,will appreciate if you know of any,mechanical eng is my preferred course though.

ogagaejay:
The minimum required grade for most master programs here in Germany is 2.50. Your 2.55 in the Nigerian system is not equivalent to this minimum graded.
My advice, try applying for Bachelor programmes with your bachelor.

adeyegus:

Bioben:
Hello all..please can someone with monthly salary of 1.2m naira who state to support me with 1.5m naira yearly but statement of account which is d salary acct as at when it will be printed is less 1.5m naira closing balance a good idea as sponsor? Guru in the house ur advice and input pls

BreadandBeans:
I think @Bandeco is right with that point.. I submitted my dad's personal account and his company's account too and when I picked up my pp along with all my documents, there was traces of black biro on my dad's personal account, I think the v.o was trying to calculate the transactions on the account but the company's soa was too neat- it was as if nobody touched it.. so from my own perspective, I think submitting your sponsors personal soa is better than submitting only his company's soa, you can just use Company's soa as back up

adebayoolatunji:
but it is stated on their website that u must have a minimum balance of ur first year tuition fees + 10000 feeding and room plus 3000 transport fare

adebayoolatunji:

adebayoolatunji:
yes it has a good cash inflow and outflow
