Yes , if you get accepted without scholarship you have to pay tuition. But because of the low rate of Africans applying , you then have higher chances of getting scholarships . For example ESMT offers up to 3 scholarships in which Africans are eligible gable. Lowest scholarship I know of is about 5000 euros. If you cannot pay tuition that route you can opt for a Profigy Finance loan which is repayable for up to 7 years after gaining employment

So there are options

smoothvee:
but if you get accepted you get to pay tuition if you are not on scholarship right?

Use your personal copy of the transcript or unofficial transcript if you have

TimationMARZ:
Good morning guys. Please I need clarification on this.

Is it a must to go with Transcripts while going for the Interview?

And if it is a must, since the school won't hand over official transcript to me. Can I send it to the embassy and tell the V.O that I have sent the transcript to them?.

Has anybody done this before and it worked?

Or is it a must I look for a way to get the official transcript in my hand?

Good Morning House,

Interview Date: 20/03/2018
AM: 23/03/2018

I want to thank everyone on this thread for their help , it was truly a blessing for me.
Quick Story: I studied Computer Technology and graduated with 2:1 CGPA of 3.76 and GRE score of 311. I began to search for public German schools for my masters but I couldn’t find any because most of them are consecutive ( meaning if I studied Computer science for my BSC , I can gain admission only around the field of natural sciences) but I wanted to study management. I began to apply to TUM because they have a joint course with HEC which is the best business school in Europe (in my opinion) but that also didn’t work out for a lot of reasons.
With no money in my bank account I began to apply to top private schools in Germany, ESMT, EBS, IUBH, SRH and I gained admission in all but because I couldn’t afford it I decided to go for ESMT because they have a loan financing program for up to 7 years after school and it also applies for Nigerians. I also applied for a Women in Business 50% scholarship but I was rejected for that. TO THE GLORY OF GOD, I got a mail saying that they are considering me for a better scholarship (100%). The Kofi Annan Scholarship, few days later I got an email that I was accepted.
( I didn’t apply for the KA scholarship initially because I didn’t have GMAT which was a requirement, I guess they used my GRE in its stead )

So when I went for my visa interview, they asked me only 1 question “Have you funded your blocked account” I said No because I got a scholarship offer. That was the end of my interview. My passport was collected. I didn’t pay Visa fee. She just told me congratulations and she was amazed , saying how did you get this scholarship.

Today I received the AM mail for travel Insurance.

Moral of this story is : Don’t bash private schools, not everyone is going there because they have 2:2 , also private schools have less competitive scholarships , some of them partial some of them full. The school is paying for my flight, monthly allowances , everything. German Public schools are great but the private ones are equally as good. So expand your search to private schools and application is free for some of them , it’s onlu IUBH that I paid, all others were free application.

God Bless you all tremendously

A lot of people have booked for winter semester. My own interview is tomorrow , I know another person going to IUBH Berlin and he has received his Visa. He is even going to Germany as soon as next month so that he can enjoy his summer and look for work before school starts in the winter.

Just be on the booking link day and night and book any date you see there. As far as I’m concerned there’s no such this as summer semester date or winter date because Appointment dates are scarce commodity

Kenthumphz:
My guys them, plz can anyone help with the question I posed earlier on about booking appointments for winter semester.
Thanks

What scholarship are you on and what university?

With regards to interview process, mine was uneventful, so no pointers. I wasn't asked any questions at all. Just carry along all documents that can support your application.

I'll be heading to Germany around March 25th. When is your interview?

Kofi Annan Scholarship
The school is ESMT Berlin

I hope my interview is as smooth as yours

BlackDeutsche:
Yeah I was also pleasantly surprised, barely 3 working days.
Yes it's a scholarship.

Wow. I’m also on scholarship but I’m yet to have my appointment.
Reading from part 1 to 4 , there are some people on scholarship whose visa application takes longer than normal.

Yours is the fastest I’ve heard of.
So please can you give me some pointers or explain the interview process or why you think ifit was so swift.

Since your course begins in April, when do you plan to head to Germany.

You can PM me if you’d prefer.

Thanks

Hi all,
Please what is the validity period of the visa. I understand that it’s usually 3 months and then you obtain your Residence Permit.
But Say for instance My 1st semester begins April 10. Will it be possible for my to go to Germany by March 10 ( a month prior)?

What’s the typical validity on the visa.
Is the visa only valid from 1 week to the beginning of the semester?

Please anyone in Germany or with their visa yet to travel should please respond. Thank you

Please house i neef help.
I was trying to book an appointment for a friend and i made mistake while entering the email address and now i am trying to rectify it but the passport have been registered on the system. Please what do i do?

Send them an email and ask them to confirm that there’s a booking with that passport number, Also tell them that you made a mistake with the email so you won’t be able to present the email on the date of the interview. So provide them with the correct email and ask them to rectify it.

My advice to everyone awaiting interview. Immediately you book an interview and receive a confirmation, send an email to info@lago.diplo.de and info@lago.auswaertiges-amt.de and ask them to confirm an interview for your selected date and time.

This will help you avoid stories that touch when you get to the embassy or consulate.

It may take days before they respond, but they will respond.
