Hi Fikki! Have you legalised your documents at the embassy? If yes please what are procedures. Do I apply at Vfs or at the embassy? How long would it take and would I have to book an appointment first? Thanks.

Hi fikki1! I did my medicals today at kamorass and would be going for the police report tomorrow. Would the embassy return the original medical report to me? My coordinator said I would need a copy of the medical report for registration in Belgium and that normally it should be returned to me.

be requested by the Embassy and most applicants will be invited for an interview. Please submit your application in time to avoid any disappointment. Generally a decision will be taken within 4 months after submission of the application. In some cases this period can take up to 8 months. You can also check this link: www.vfsglobal-be-ng.com/pdf/English_Study_Visa_Checklist_040216.pdf You can come with both original and certified copy of your admission letter.

Hi fikki! I need some info about the actual processing time for Belgium visa. The info I am getting is just confusing and I do not want to start something I cant finish. The comments on all Belgium visa thread I found on nairaland is not encouraging at all. Almost everyone kept stressing how long it takes to process the visa. On the downloaded visa checklist just like the one you pasted here its within 4-8 months whereas on vfs website it says 15 working days or 4 weeks. which one am I to go with? Have anyone on this forum actually gotten his/her visa within 4 weeks? Besides, how much should I budget to legalise all my documents? I would be going to lagos this week for medicals and police report before heading to Abuja for the legalisation. Thanks.

Please I need help

I'm going for Erasmus also. Though as a self-funding student. According to my mobility track which I selected based on my specialization, My tracks are as follows;

University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine of Cluj Napoca, Romania. 1st semester
University of Kassel and Fulda University of Applied Sciences both in Germany. 2nd
ISARA-LYON, France. 3rd

The last semester is a internship/master thesis and they say it should be done in a country that I haven't studied before which automatically means Ghent University, Belgium or Arrhus University, Denmark. Though they have agreed to let me do it in either Germany or France.

I want to know if it's possible to get a stay in Belgium after spending the last semester there. Like maybe a year to get a job.

The lure of studying in one of Ughent or Arrhus is too much to bear. The 6th and 7th best in the world in my chosen subject.

Bro I will get back to you as regards belgium. let me do a little research about it. but I know germany offers 18months permit after your studies to get a job

not really. The issue is if your documents (especially documents proofing you financial means) are not okay the processing will take a longer time since they will need need time to verify them. However since you got a scholarship it wont take much time since they scholarship office will be in direct contact with them embassy an they will proof documents they need about your solvency. Which University are you going to?

University of Liege, Belgium.
University of Lorraine,France.
Lulea University of Technology,Sweden.
Technical University of Mining and Technology Freiberg, Germany. University of Liege is the coordinator of the program and thats where i would be spending my first semester.

Guys if you were placed on the reserve list and you are at least sure you have a high ranking (the heck even if you don't know your ranking) it's time to pray even HARDER!!

I didn't want to share this cos I know what it feels like raising people's hopes and getting it dashed again especially for those who are gradually recovering from dashed hope. Believe me, I've been there. Twice.

I got info from TWO reliable sources that the EACEA has more grants available and so will be giving out more scholarship to each department. Please if you don't believe it, that's your headache; don't make rude comments. Before the end of June, each department is supposed to receive more grant for additional scholarships.

How many? they do not know yet. They are waiting for further directives. So it's either you're praying someone who has been offered the scholarship rejects it cos the person has moved on to something better or that they give enough scholarship to get to you in the reserve list.

Good luck to is all. Keep Hope Alive! Trust God!

your source must be water tight. I was initially nominated for the ACP geographical window for my program only to be told that it wasn't approved by the EACEA. I got a mail some days back informing me that an extra external grant is available and I have been selected for the scholarship. Though the coordinator is yet to send the official documents, I was told to start getting the necessary documents for visa application. which program did you apply to?

Congrats on your Erasmus scholarship. I'd choose the Erasmus scholarship in a heartbeat. However, considering the things stated above, I'd still say you go for Erasmus.

From the knowledge I have, no Erasmus awardee has been rejected at the embassy. Moreso, if you go for Erasmus, you'd be issued a schengen visa too. The law was passed a couple of weeks ago.

Moreso, as an Erasmus awardee, a lot of opportunities are opened to you and getting a job and residency afterwards isn't a problem.

But then, it's up to you. Once again, congratulations. What course were you admitted to?

Thank you. I was admitted to Emerald-Georesources Engineering.

Please wait for your Swedish visa first. After that you can apply for your Belgian visa. Since you are going for a scholarship, you will be granted the visa and it won't take much time for the visa to be issued. Congrats


Thank you. Like approximately how long would it take to secure the visa?

Travel / Re: Anyone Studying In Belgium? by CCsurplus007(m): 1:07pm On Jun 22, 2016
Hello All! Please I need an urgent advice. I would explain my case briefly.

I have been following this thread for a while and was also preparing my documents because I was expecting a decision from the European Union concerning Erasmus Mundus scholarship. I was unsuccessful as at then. Fortunately, almost the same time I got the rejection I won a scholarship from the Swedish Institute and have submitted my application for visa. I got a mail yesterday from the coordinator of the Erasmus Mundus program informing me that I have been reconsidered and selected for the Erasmus Mundus Scholarship. In the mail, she said would be sending me the official documents as soon as possible and that there is no guarantee I would secure the visa but that they would do all they can by writing to the embassy and all. While both offers are very good, I am disposed to the Erasmus offer. Now my queries are;

1. Is it still possible to secure a Belgian visa given the time frame and also considering the fact if I would go for the offer, I would be submitting my documents in July(second week at the latest) ? The school resumes on the 19th of September . The risk here is that if I wait till September for the Belgian visa, It would automatically mean I would forfeit the Swedish offer because I should be in Sweden mid August . Also since there is no guarantee of securing the visa like the coordinator said, I would have lost both offers if I don't get a response from Belgium embassy before the 10th of Sept.The other option which I don't know if it's possible leads to point 2.

2. I would be getting my Swedish study visa soon( I understand that it is a schenghen visa) can I use it to enter Belgium then apply for residence permit there?

The gurus in the house should please shed more light. Thanks

Thanks all.

In Yii 2, when you controller class extends \yii\rest\ActiveController for Restful Api not app\controllers, the following methods are created like default


public function actionIndex(){

}

public function actionView(){

}

public function actionCreate(){

}

public function actionUpdate(){

}

public function actionDelete(){

}

public function actionOptions(){

}


This will map to the corresponding API end-points

GET /countries: list all countries
HEAD /countries: show the overview information of country listing
POST /countries: create a new country
GET /countries/AU: return the details of the country AU
HEAD /countries/AU: show the overview information of country AU
PATCH /countries/AU: update the country AU
PUT /countries/AU: update the country AU
DELETE /countries/AU: delete the country AU
OPTIONS /countries: show the supported verbs regarding endpoint /countries
OPTIONS /countries/AU: show the supported verbs regarding endpoint /countries/AU.

If you are extending app\controllers, I know you can use

 Countries::find()->limit(20); 


but I am working with \yii\rest\ActiveController

Hi all ! My passport would expire on the 21st of August, 2017. Part of the requirements from vfs says that '' A travel document (e.g. national passport) should be valid for at least 15 months, in which a visa can be affixed''. The issue is I would be applying for a visa in June by which time the 15 months rule would not be feasible. Do I request for a new passport or what should I do in this case. Thanks

Education / 13 Year Old Nigerian Breaks Record At Cambridge Checkpoint Examination by CCsurplus007(m): 9:35am On Mar 02, 2016
A 13-years old Nigerian, Chimelum Tasi-Amadi has set a new academic record after writing the Cambridge Checkpoint Examination.
According to a statement from the teenager’s school, the City of Knowledge Academy situated in Ijebu Ode area of Ogun State, his academic feat has landed him a placement at Phillips Academy Exeter USA (a world renowned Prep School that prepares students almost exclusively for the IVY League Universities in the USA).

In a statement released by the City of Knowledge Academy, where Tasi-Amadi attends, the academic performance of the year nine student wasn’t totally strange as he had earlier dazzled keen watchers of educational terrain with award-winning performances at both the American Mathematical Competition and the Cowbell Mathematics Competition.
City of Knowledge Academy further boasts of an array of achievements by its students which include certification of 11 students of age range 10 to 14 years getting certified by Microsoft as Systems Administrators with proficiency in MS-Words 2010 after passing the examinations between 2015 and 2016
Founded by Mrs. Mosun Belo-Olusoga, an Economics graduate of the University of Ibadan, a Fellow of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Nigeria and an alumnus of Harvard Business School, USA, the school boasts of achieving more in the educational sector.

she needs both counselling and spiritual cleansing . As for yunusa I trust he wld be given a heros welcome in kano codedly though for attempting to islamize an infidel. Its a big price you know.. forget all those talks within a week from now everyone would forget this issue and face his/her business

hmmm Emir Sanusi.. All those formalities were just to save face I knew it. If the Emir had wanted that girl in bayelsa she would have been there for long. you wrote a letter for her to be released but you could not ensure and do a follow up to see that a 14 year old girl is reunited with her parents . since Agust 2015 you were indifferent , carefree and lacakadiasical.. . . very shameful

The father of Ese, Mr. Charles Oruru, has indicted the Emir of Kano, Mallam Muhammadu Sanusi II, in his daughter’s travail.Oruru, in an interview with Raypower FM, which was monitored by our correspondent on Tuesday, said Sanusi deserved no credit in the eventual release of Ese “as he only bowed to pressure from Nigerians”.

The Emir is very culpable in this case. Its a clear case of negligence on his part. Even if we agree he wrote a letter to the AIG requesting her transfer whatever happened to following up the case to ensure that she is safely returned since agust 2014?. The first thing a sane man would is to ask that idoit whether he sought the permision of her parent and even get him arrested. So assuming the girl was 18 Emir sanusi would grant the sharia recommendation without her parent approval? To think this was a former CBN governor with all his exposure leaves little to be desired. They way these people think is just disturbing. A very religious country yet morally depraved. The worst is the president silence to salient national issues, very indifferent and absent minded it makes one wonder if he is the president of the moon or Nigeria. We are so divided along many lines that I wonder what we did to luggard to warrant this unholy union. you guys should better watch your gateman n all these nigeriens doing menial jobs in Lagos and other parts of the south to prevent stories that touch.
