Thanks. Its a direct application to the school. Applied in October and did Skype interview on the 21st of December.
Awilibogy:





Congratulations.

How long did it take them to give you admission?
Did you applied through uni-assist?
Did you pay any applications fees?

Aww. Thanks so much much. In fact, I never thought I would be reconsidered because it was clearly stated in the invitation mail that if for any reason on my part the interview didn't hold at that time, my application will no longer be processed. I don't know if this will be useful for anyone in future, these are some of the questions I can remember. 1. Why do you want to study development economics 2. Why university of geottingen 3. What are the issues in the Nigerian education sector 4. What are your proposed solutions 5. What do you understand by market failure and why do market fail 6. A scenario based question around demand, supply, price elasticity 7. A scenario based question on how to interpret correlation analysis 8. Explain the Solow growth model. 9. What causes volatility in oil prices
mexzony:

Congratulations. That is great. Reading what happened last time I felt really bad for you. Don't worry you have been accepted into the school.just relax and go and watch Nickelodeon.

Thanks very much. I was contacted yesterday through Skype with a new time but I was on a trip and my phone was off, so I didn't receive the notice early enough. Thankfully, they are gracious enough to give me another time for tomorrow morning. I pray I have better luck this time.
Mystique20:
So sorry,
Hopefully they understand that it wasn't your fault, and you get another date. This time please call them at the allotted time, I did during mine.

Thank you so much. I mailed them immediately after 6pm and I didn't receive the call. I actually saw them online and sent a prior message to their Skype at 5:47pm saying I have been waiting and no call. I would have called but I wasn't sure how they would react if I did. I hope they will reply in the morning and reconsider.
Mystique20:
Shoot!

So sorry, try calling too. Explain the problem and if you get another chance, call and send them a message a few minutes BEFORE the scheduled timing. That way you can be sure that all is set. Best of luck!

Thank you so much. So sorry about your rejection. I may have to wait till next admission session. My goal is to study a development course but most schools that offer the course only admit during winter.
erny11:


Wow, sorry about that, do to take heart. I also lost my chance with them. I just got a rejection mail stating I was unsuccessful as my degree course isnt related enough (I studied Agric Econs) and they have lots of applicants. Of which less than 20% will be admitted.

Well to the next level, I want to apply for Msc Econs in both Kiel University and Trier University

I lost my admission chance today into Uni gottingen. They scheduled me for an interview between 4pm and 6pm. At my end I was online throughout the whole period but it seems they didn't see me online. All the messages they sent me asking if I was online dropped after 6pm. I have mailed them if they could reschedule but I doubt if they would agree. I am just not happy after all my efforts.
erny11:

Thanks so much! I really appreciate. I actually applied to Uni gottingen which is my first choice, expecting admission status this December. Maybe I should wait for the status, cos I leant it will be out this month,

Hi guys!
So i don't want to say that I've been scammed because the day isn't over, however i got in touch with the individual whose post I'm quoting after he responded to my post asking for someone to help me with the appointment booking.
We exchanged a few emails and finally agreed that I'll make half the payment and the other half upon confirmation, got his contact and account information, made payment today, sent him an email informing him that the payment had been made, i called the number but didn't get a response, now its no longer reachable.

We constantly complain about not being trusted by outsiders but don't make any effort to be different, i honestly hope that I'm wrong about my assumptions. However, if its truly the case of being scammed, i hope the fee solves all your problems,we learn everyday.

May the universe repay you as it sees fit.

Lol. You are probably right but i believe the interview is also a key determinant. I want to believe they are still contacting applicants, just keep your fingers crossed. I wish you all the best.

No apologies. I am grateful for your kindness and open to as many suggestions you can give. Development economics has always been my dream course and I'm ready to give all it takes to get it.
Mystique20:

No worries, sorry for the too many messages, I just keep remembering stuff.
At the end of the interview, endeavor to catch the names of the interviewers, that way you can check their pages on the schools website for their emails, send them a thank you mail right after, it's also a chance to reiterate your passion for the school, sometimes you get a response, in my case I did.
Just bear in mind that they're interested in you and that's why you're getting a Skype interview.
Lastly, relax, smile, and enjoy the conversation.

Whao, I actually didn't think about asking them questions. I think this is a brilliant idea. I so much appreciate your openness. Thank you.
Mystique20:
Hey, I almost forgot, you should prepare a few questions you'd like to ask them, it's advisable to ask questions related to the program, shows you took out time to go through their brochure, and you're willing to put in work and make research.
I'm my case I asked how the structured and paired students during the thesis preparation, and I was lucky to have the lecturer taking my area of specialization at the interview so I directed some career inclined questions to him.

You should have an idea of what topic you want to research during your thesis, and why that topic,my school demanded it.
Best if luck.

Thank you so much. This is really helpful. Yes, I did send my CV and my undergraduate degree was in economics. I will structure my preparations along these lines.
Mystique20:
I didn't apply to that university neither did I apply for same program in another university, but I had to undergo a Skype interview and maybe my experience might help you prepare :
Firstly, during your application I'm sure you sent your cv, if yes, be ready to explain and defend any and everything you put down.

Secondly, if your program of study involves theories, concepts and stuff like that, you might want to know as many of them as you can remember, if you can explain via examples, it'll help too.
You'd have to tell them why you picked their school over others, and how your choice of course is related to your undergraduate program if you're going for an MSc, if not you'd explain the reason behind the switch.
And then be ready to discuss some questions arising from your motivation letter. All in all the interview last about 30-45 minutes.

NB: BE ON TIME, IF POSSIBLE CALL THE SCHOOL ABOUT AN HOUR ON REGULAR CALL TO CONFIRM THE APPOINTMENT, THEN SEND A SKYPE MESSAGE A FEW MINUTES BEFORE THE INTERVIEW TIME, INTRODUCING YOURSELF.
Hope it helps.

Good day house. I applied for the MA development economics program at Gottingen University. I received an email from the department today to prepare for a Skype interview next week. I will appreciate sample interview questions from past or current applicants into this program or similar program in other schools. Thank you for your responses.

Good evening everyone. I am new here and I have some enquiries to make. I am planning to go for my Masters in Germany next year April. I have two kids (3+ and 5 years) and I don't want to leave them behind. Will I be allowed to go with them on student visa? If so how much fund extra will be required outside the 8000+. And if not, how quickly can I send for them after I get there? Thank you in advance for your responses.

Close the App and start again. Sometimes it your Internet service provider that has issues, not necessarily the bank. I've been using diamond mobile app for over 1 year now, diamond is still the best of all the 5 bank accounts I have.
