YSPON:
Thank you to all that contributed. But I don't really understand your post. Is it possible for me to still book an earlier date say December/Early January? what will happen to my other appointment? pls shed more light bro thanks.

Yes, if another earlier date becomes available (likely as a result of someone else cancelling) you may reschedule to an earlier date.

Before you reschedule to another date you first have to cancel you initial appointment, so that date will be freed up for someone else.

@Lalaski001

Can you give your opinion on the following:

1. Can my old international passport serve as biographically old document?

3. Is primary school certificate a must? I went to secondary school from primary 5, can I use my primary 5 results instead?

YSPON:
Hello everyone, pls I got a date towards the end of January for my appointment and my course is to start February ending. Is the date OK considering the fact that one needs about 6wks. I am very worried as I would have loved a date in December.

Don't worry yourself so much, but be on the watch. As @Lalaski001 said, most people can't honour their dates. As January draws closer a lot of people will free up their dates to avoid getting suspended. Get all your documents prepared, so that in the event this happens you can quickly take advantage.

Can I use my old passport as a biographically old document?

Or is WAEC enough?

1. For visa is high school testimonial necessary or waec is sufficient?

2. Can my old international passport serve as biographically old document?

3. Is primary school certificate a must? I went to secondary school from primary 5, so I don't have it.

No.

With the new system you can book interview date without admission letter.
I did.

Ezyp:
Can one book without admission letter?

Yeah.

Linkzy:
Hello guys...
Please help me out.
I have not gotten my admission yet but I'm hopeful it will come soon. I'm confused cos I saw about 3 dates yesterday, 12th, 19th and 29th of December.

My question is if I book on the 29th and close to that time, I don't get the admission letter, can I still cancel it and book another available date without been penalized?

You must cancel 1 week before the given date to avoid penalisation.

How does this concern us looking to study in Germany?

EmmaIK:
I have. in fact last night February opened up at midnight but there was no dates available.

Is this normal?

There was a date actually, 1st February, but it filled up.

BestA2:
Have you been accepted in saarbrucken already?

Yeah.. Are you there or did you apply there?

@honourableseyi

Boss can you give me since guidance on how to go about securing accommodation in Germany.

I'm particularly interested in Saarbrücken.

Any info that applies to Berlin will also be useful.

TemitopeWalker:
Yes boss and if you are older than 30 you will pay higher insurance Sir.. but it has an advantage you can bring your wife in future even as a student and she won't have to pay 8k euro...

From what I understand single people are actually taxed more in Germany.

Thermilola:
lords in the house. Pls am using uni-assist with my application and av gotten to the point where am to upload my documents. Pls am in dire need of your help cus i dont know which one is the[application form, work sample, cv, motivation letter, language certificate, study testimony, report card, activity report] pls help. looking forward to your reply

I'm not sure I get what you mean, but are you asking what the documents (@bolded) mean?
If that's the case, I don't typically like to direct people to read the previous threads because it's rather bulky, but in your case you should. These are the most basic information you can find with hardly 30 minutes of research. Heck, 5 minutes of google search can clarify some.
At the very least, I expect everyone to know what CV and motivation letter are.

Then again I might have misunderstood you.

Kleinefrau:
I actually book an appointment for January because there was no appointment available for December as at that time...after checking again, I saw that appointment is available for December, so I want to cancel the January and book for December.
How long will I be able to rebook..I don't want to loose at both ends... But I will be glad if I can reschedule for December

You can cancel and rebook whenever, as long as there's available date.

The only condition is that you must cancel at least 1 week before your booked date, if not you will face temporary suspension.

So if your date is January you're good.
Go ahead, cancel and rebook.

What's the best way to go about finding accommodation in Germany?

FOR VISA

1. Is secondary school leaving certificate a must or WAEC result is sufficient?

2. Is primary school leaving certificate a must?

3. What documents can stand as biographically old document? Can I use my old passport?

4. What is this prepaid courier envelop and what should one know about it?

Jigba:
You think german visa is easier?
...

Compared to Canadian student visa? A loooooooooot easier.

How does the embassy expect us to meet up with the interview dates?
A lot of schools have their application deadlines in January.
The program I'm applying to at Kiel has deadline for January 15. How would it work out? Do German schools do rolling admission?

Will the embassy provide more interview dates eventually?

josafunmi:
good morning bro,
i have been offered admission for summer @ University of Göttingen. i have sent u a PM.
i ll be expecting your response.
many thanks

What course?
When did you apply?
When did you get admission?

Applied also for master in computer application.

hostine316:
Yes i think it can serve as long as the payment remains consistent throughout your study

Okay. The program I applied to has possibility of such funding if accepted.

The scholarship you applied for, what were the requirements like?

Will send you a PM

hostine316:
was it DAAD scholarship you applied for? because it also ended October 31..that was why i asked

Also, if someone has a scholarship of about €800 monthly from a German institution, can that be used as the sole proof of funds?

hostine316:
was it DAAD scholarship you applied for? because it also ended October 31..that was why i asked

I was just asking what scholarship you applied for. I didn't apply for it.

hostine316:
it's DAAD PhD grant. I guess you already have a potential supervisor in Germany who is willing to supervise your PhD?

Ooh you must first have a potential supervisor? I applied for a PhD program also, but the program doesn't require one to have secured a potential supervisor.

hostine316:
I'm also for PhD. its not too far since the scholarship is for 2018/2019 session. can we chat up privately?

Please which scholarship is it?

chidi4eze:
2 weeks minimum depends on the person
You can unblock within one week
I unblocked my fintiba within 8 days

Please shed more light. How much is recommended to take along with you? What and what did you have to pay out of pocket before you got access to the account?

Semester fee? First and last month rent?

trojrobert:
You are not alone , Canada did same to me

Lol we all got the same history, and I know 3 other people in same boat. Starting to seem like Germany is home to Canada rejects.

Sassyp:
My people how is everyone doing?hope we all good.pls does anybody know or has applied to any uni for MSC in any IT related course here for summer semester?if so kindly share as i am looking for schools that offer IT courses in ENglish
Thanks.

Tooo many schools offer IT related MSc. courses in English. Like waaaaay too many. Like 70% of schools with science related departments.

If only you'll take some time to research, you wouldn't have to ask. Go to www.daad.de and do the needful.
If you can't find your way around the website/internet then IT probably isn't for you.

Funnicator:
I have WAEC certificate, but didn't pass my chemistry.
Had distinction in English, math, physics, biology, geography, etc. Except chemistry.

Point is neither neco nor waec alone can give you admission.

hadassaheke:
It depends on the bank...

Thanks for the feedback.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of both Banks?

Also how long after you land in Germany does it take one typically to get access to the fund in blocked account?

If not immediately, then how much is advisable to take with you to Germany. I heard that you typically have to pay first and last month rent when you Land. Is there any way to faster access the blocked account for this purpose?

@donkafor your opinion would also be helpful.
