Good to hear that they have abandoned the tuition fees as Bavaria was at the forefront of introducing tuition fees. I see it also on DAAD page as well: https://www.daad.de/deutschland/nach-deutschland/voraussetzungen/en/9198-financing/.

East Germany has been a hotbed of intolerance against foreign looking people. Maybe I am listening to the wrong news about Germany, but NTV is actually a mainstream TV network and they report about foreigners especially asylum seekers being attacked in some states in the East.

A question for you, where is the large communities of Yorubas in Brandenburg? I knew you were going to mention Berlin, but is a very different case if you know the history of modern Germany. Potsdam's closeness to Berlin is an advantage, but Brandenburg has seen a number of people killed because they are African. Do you remember the case of the Ethiopian guy? That was not too long ago. I know there are many Yoruba people in Berlin, but Brandenburg, not so. I was actively involved with Egbe Omo Yoruba Germany / Egbe Isokan Omo Yoruba Germany e.V.

Leipzig I have to say is a cosmopolitan city in Saxony. The state of Saxony is however a hotbed of anti foreigner demonstration if ARD, ZDF, NTV etc. are not lying in their reports. And German media seem to be more reliable sources than American or Russia Today.

Regarding Amazon jobs, isn't only available during the Xmas season?

Anyway, to answer your question, and not to argue blindly, I am not saying Germany is terrible, but that you should make people aware of the issues so as to be able to cope well. And besides, I think I made it clear in my post that there is a dichotomy between the policy of the state, and that what the people want. Else AfD would not be getting so much votes. Indeed the Government of Merkel has helped the Syrian refugees, but that has given made the Nazi parties to swell in their numbers.

Germany is a beautiful and lovely country, and we have some of the most kindhearted people in the world. Nonetheless, there are many, too many terrible people that just don't like someone, because of their skin color. Even though it is not widespread across the country, but still there are some no go areas.

Deutschland ist mein Land und ich liebe es. Jedoch dürfen wir die Schwierigkeiten mit ausländerfeindlichen Gesinnungen nicht auf leichter Schultern nehmen.

Ich wünsche dir auch einen angenehmen Sonntag. Leb schön und leb gut.

Enjoy.

. Don't misinform people. Only 1 out of 800 foreign student will get a job that can sponsor their visa. VERY FEW PEOPLE GET A JOB. After your masters you have about 3/4 months before your visa expiration which of course is not renewable except you get someone to marry so how can you get a job when you have to leave almost immediately? UK MASTERS NA WASTE OF MONEY

If you pay for something even if it's one Euro, you cannot qualify it as free, because you are paying for it. There are perks you get from different states, but you have to differentiate from state to state.

When I replied you, I don't think I spoke about private Universities. I said Education is state affair, and you should be specific and not generalize. BTW, how many private universities do you have in Germany? There are not many, so please learn to keep arguments in the proper perspective.

Again, saying it's only B-W that collects fees shows you are not conversant with the situation. Bavaria does collect fees too, even if the fees you pay are not as expensive as what you pay in the UK. You still have to calculate it as part of your cost to arrive at the proper cost of living.

I do not know how you young people argue. First and foremost, tribalism and racism are two different things. Secondly, online rants, and physical attacks are not the same either. How many of those ipod people or Yoruba e-warriors have you heard are going after each other on the streets of Nigerian towns?

And if you had understood my post very well, you wouldn't come with such ridiculous counter argument. I remember to clearly have said Eastern Germany is particularly worse. And the most states in the East are poorer than the west, and they have a lot of these Nazis all around towns, and it is much dangerous to go out alone again. This was something that happened 20+ years ago, and the government did a lot to suppress it, and in the wake of the plenty asylum seekers have resurfaced again.

I lived 19 years there, and it was the most enjoyable time. But I was aware of the dangers. I was aware of where to go, where not to go, and I avoided going to some areas in the dark alone at night. Still, you cannot totally avoid these people. And comparing Nairaland ipod and e-warrior rants to racism, and saying there's racism everywhere tells me you are not conversant with the danger of Nazism. Anti foreigners sentiment is very high in today's Germany, and people need to know it. If you want to go to school in Germany, avoid states in the East (Saxony, Mecklenburg-Pomerania, Brandenburg, Saxony- Anhalt and to some extent Thuringia) even though it is cheaper there, because the chance that some lunatics can physically attack and kill you, because of your skin colour IS REAL.
Besides, you may not find a semester job if you stay in the east.

Temitope2302:

ok,thanks. but, what if i decide to learn german, can i reach fluency enough to study there within 1 year.

Arondizuogu:


Are you there on an international student visa? Or a legal resident immigrant.

UncleJudax:

Ich sehe dich Brüder!

damzy88:
Bro, I have been trying to send you a pm. Which universities in Germany do you suggest a person with a B.Sc in Economics should try? Any Finance/Management program is fine. Thanks

DanielsParker:

Subudu:

I want to come to Germany for masters. Advice me please. What do I need?

user147:
Bro? Paint me a picture.

As an example : A Nigerian in Nigeria, will fly to Germany under what visa? ( Student visa?) And enrol for a free education in Germany? And all you need is €8700?

I know I can Google this, but it's better hearing from someone who's undergone the process.

Saladin25:

You are absolutely right about Germany, a friend of mind will start is Program this April. He shown me a copy of his admission letter. The name of the school is, Hochschule für Technik und Wirtschaft, Berlin. From the admission letter, he was told to pay 2000 Euro in two installments. He is allowed to work also.
Germany is cool for studies and migration. The man saying german are racists, racists are everywhere. I was watching a programme on TV where, Africans were asked about how they deal with racism in the UK. Even in Nigeria we have ethnic bigots. Racism is an individual thing.

EsotericMonk:

Thank man, I appreciate. Perhaps I would just stay put with the UK or do you have any other country you would recommend?
Pls also help with the quora address.

emmanuelpopson:



that is a working govt...its better to get in there than the colonial Lords country... Germany all the way...how can one get the necessary info to gain the admission as you posted?..

EsotericMonk:

Odd jobs after completing my MCCEE and UK work experience? Seriously? Tell me more.

Good question! yes its not completely free as people push it here.

You have to deposit 8,700 euros in blocked account in German bank as part of financial requirement.

user147:
Hi Bro.

I'd like to believe there are conditions to qualify and getting that free education?

I don't want to believe it's an opportunity that is available to any immigrant who can just come into the country.

Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Ilaje44:


Please stop misleading people about Semesterticket being free. You get to pay for it, but it is subsidized. And besides, tuition is not free in all Universities. You have to be specific in which State you live, because you cannot generalize the conditions in your state to other states. Education is state and not federal government affair in Germany. The UK is at least ca 500 kilometres away from Germany at their closest point, and you have to cross either France, Belgium or the Netherlands, and of course the sea to get to the UK from the Germany. If you are not an EU/EEA citizen, you need a visa to enter the UK even though you have a Schengen visa.
Public transport Infrastructures are generally better in Germany than the UK. Germany is richer than the UK, and so Life tends to be better on average in Germany. However, you must not forget that in Germany, the chance to be exposed to racial hate is much higher than in the UK. East Germany is particularly worse. Even though the government of Angela Merkel is friendly to immigrants', this doesn't mean German people like the foreigners much. I lived in Germany for more than 19 years.

By the way, it's "Willkommen in Deutschland". I know that Deutsche Grammatik can cause a lot of "headaches;-).

Yes..few organisations here give scholarship.but the requirement are stringent with rigorious selection process.
