Hello house,

I recently received an email from the embassy stating

""noreply@diplo.de

Thu, 25 Apr, 14:41

to me

---The Federal Foreign Office’s appointment management system---

Dear Anon,



The waiting period for appointments for the purpose of study increases each year with new registrations on the waiting list.



Many applicants change their travel plans due to the long waiting period and no longer require an appointment. This results in appointment slots not being used, since applicants do not cancel their registrations and do not appear for their scheduled appointments. In order to decrease waiting times for all applicants still interested in perusing their plans in Germany, you are required to confirm your registration within 30 days of receiving this email.


Kindly confirm that you still wish to apply for a visa for study purposes with appointment number ### at the German mission abroad in Lagos by clicking on the following link.



Any registration that is not confirmed within the deadline will be deleted irreversibly.

Thank you for helping to make the waiting time for everyone as short as possible.

Kind regards,
Embassy/Consulate General of the Federal Republic of Germany
in Lagos""

I've confirmed the appointment, But I'd like to know, does this mean I'll get an appointment this year? I applied on exactly 17th May *2023*

Thank you all in advance!

Iambettywitdag:
Please o is it a MUST one write German A1 before he /she travel to Germany . Does the embassy need it ?.be cause my school doesn’t even want it . But I hear people are writing it ?

xHopex:


I did.
Does it mean we'll get a date soon?

Iambettywitdag:




Okay .I booked the date for sept 5th 2025 , and I’m asking what if sept 10th or maybe past the date I booked for and they haven’t still called me for AD.should I just cancel because they said “ If you don't receive an appointment confirmation email prior to your
mentioned date of the beginning of your studies your registration can no longer
be considered. In this case please cancel your registration. Thank you!“

adeniranfam:


So they have not started with 2023 at all ?

enemerci:
Please on appointment dates. Please which date are they on now.

Also please anyone with the telegram group link. Please kindly share.
Thank you.

Roushid:
URGENT!!!,
I registered on Nov 30, 2022, I chose masters and also the date of beginning of study visit I put is May 30, 2023.
I didn’t know the 18 months wait process then.

It’s over a year of waiting, wanted to know if I’ll still get a date and I have changed to mind that I’ll go for BSc instead of masters in September, 2024.

Or should I leave the application or try another country?

Dgabby01:
Good day everyone, I'm new to these Germany visa process and I'm planning on going for my bachelor's degree in computer science. I have some few universities I want to apply to, for the 2024 summer semester. Please, how's there visa process. Will I be able to get the visa before my resumption in 2024?

StealthGuy:
Guys, good evening.

My sponsor just returned my call yesterday and gave me the "Go-Ahead" guarantee that I should proceed with my plans for a German visa application via MA/MSc route.

My passport capturing is on Monday at Festac and I'll get my Academic Transcripts shortly afterwards (and have it notarized/validated).


Have you found out what category you're under and booked your appointment?

Current wait time for an interview date from the embassy (for Category B applicants) is at 18 months

My Language Skill Tests will follow early January (I plan for 2024/25 session).

Please, what next should I have lined up after these processes?

I very much appreciate all support and valuable information.

Thanks

MarioGozie:
Hello my people!
Please I need advice on applying for appointment.
I want to apply for bachelor's program with some schools next year. Which date can I choose as my start date while booking so I could have a better chance instead of waiting one year. Should I choose this year October or next year October. I need advice please. 🙏🙏🙏 Also which embassy is better. Abuja or Lagos?

greenermodels:
Good day, house. I wanted to study for my masters in Germany a few years back but later dropped the idea due to their unwillingness then to give interview date for Nigerians, please
1) are they giving interview dates now
2) Would it be of help if I already have B2 certificate even though my intended program would be taught in English
(3)What's the summary of the entire process from application to visa now. Thanks and remain blessed.

wilsonobee:
Hello, please I’m new here, I’m to get my B2 certificate by Nov/Dec
I applied early April for an Ausbildung visa.. when am I to expect the AD

PeculiarVee:
Please how many times can admission be deferred in Germany given this long awaiting period for AD.

I got admitted to university of kiel winter semester 2023 and I'm planning on deferring my admission to the next winter Semester but they said they can defer it to summer Semester 2024 for now.

They don't offer online classes.

Has anyone especially from university of kiel defer their admission twice?

Thank you

Also some schools are asking for tuition fee.
