Goztino:
When I was applying to Aachen, I was told to upload my course description. I really dont know what they mean by this course description. Other universities didn't ask of such confusing task.

see below.
Please upload either your module catalog or, alternatively, copy and paste the link to the module catalog on a blank sheet and upload this. Keep in mind that you will have to provide an adequate description of the course content of the modules that are relevant for admission, for example a module guide. The module descriptions must include the credit points earned as well as the course load in semester week hours. If you do not have access to a module catalog or module guide (e.g. in the case of “Diplom” or “Magister” degree programs), please upload comparable documentation (e.g. course catalogs or a letter from your previous university confirming the equivalence of course content with regard to current Bachelor's and Master's Degree Programs). It is important that the course content is sufficiently specified and substantiated. For further questions please contact the responsible departmental academic advisor (www.rwth-aachen.de/fachstudienberatung).

your undergraduate course handbook will serve. That is what they are requesting for. in some schools the handbook is found on the departmental online page but if not so in your school look for your course handbook, where all the course with description and credit hour even the course coordinators of the course you took are all listed out. if you dont have it handy please visit your department and request for one then you can scan and upload to them. i hope this helps

I thought the 8700€ is required by the german embassy for all schools or a sponsor in Germany before issuing a visa. Is there an exception to this? Kindly throw more light

Exactly, the money is to prove to the embassy that you can take care of your living expenses but in the case where you have someone you need a sponsorship letter SL which your sponsor need send to the alien office for approval.

Time2win:
I thought germany is free education?

Most schools but not all schools offers free tuition even in some schools that offer free tuition there are some courses within the school that requires tuition. Schools that offers free tuition requires you take of your living expenses which the German embassy requires you to block 8700€ in a German account before you would be offered a visium.

CFA Level 2 candidate
I like to think that my essay was MADDDDD!!!!!
I got the offer less than two hours after my Skype interview with the admission director. I probably impressed him.

Above all, I thank God that I got into the school. I also thank God for this thread and everyone that contributes to help other people.

My advise to hopefuls based on my experience is this; when you are given a scholarship offer, you can take the risk and ask for more before accepting the admission. For example, I was initially given a scholarship offer of 13.7% off my tuition but I sent an email to the admission director explaining that my family had been saving money ahead of my grad studies but crude prices fell and the naira has lost about 60% of its value... something along these lines...

Long story cut short, they increased the offer they gave me by 30%.
Imagine I was scared and didn’t ask, that would have cost me the 30% increase in the scholarship they offered me.... is your fear worth 30% ? Hahaha

Goodluck guys!

congratulations sis, thats quite a remarkable success and achievement so far. this is a result of hard word and determination. I tap into your testimony sis. I would like to get info from you asap as my situation is similar to that of yours.

although, my msc focus is at uni bayreuth Germany . I have beeb given admission but no funding yet . so I mailed my course coordinator about it he asked me to forward a Motivation letter indicating my funding needs . I need a compelling mail like yours to streamline mine. I would like to speak with you more on this , I am not a burden and can work independently with little supervision.

Thank you so much.
God bless you more
Best regards

Ndaife:
Good thread.. Please Brothers in the house living in Germany, are international students allowed to work in Germany while studying?? is there any hours restrictions or can one work as much as he can.
Also Can one be able to realize the Block account money and pays back to the lender while still studying

Yes, international students are allowed to study/work in Germany but you will need some documentation and get a permit in order to do so but it comes with a clause that is to say for you to maintain your work permit , you must not fall below an average academic performance otherwise when they discover that working will hinder your performance , your permit will be withdrawn fron you and working as a student depends entirely on your academic calendar of which they will request from you. mostly, depending on how demanding your course would be depends on the maximum hours that would be allocated to you for work. this would be maximum during festivals and holidays.

lastly, the blocked account is your money and no one else . certain amount upto 600€ will be released to you on a monthly basis for your upkeep . so its left for you to know what to do with it from there you can stash some if you wish
.
Thats the little I can say for now from my understanding reading this thread as a newbie.

cherrs.

LordSir1:
Well it’s nothing you don’t know, depends on where you might come from, some companies/organization often do this as part of their service to the host community.

I get your point sire. but could you please give me a little bit of guideline. I have some few oil and gas companies situated in my community that offers academic scholarships upto undergrad level . maybe I could walk upto them. but then I need to be guided properly, hence my humble request for guidance and necessary supporting documents to go along with.

waiting in anticipation for a positive response from you sire.
Thank you so much.

LordSir1:
Thank you for your reply. I considered but I haven’t been lucky getting a supervisor so I decided to go for a non-thesis and try to get funding from a third party. But please can you suggest schools that’ll be my best bet (preferably in Texas)

Weldone boss please do you know of any organisation or body that offers funding for msc programme which you can share or recommend for me . please I seriously need one to help me cover me living and accommodation expense . Thanks

iamlucky:
On Friday night, i became restless when one of my friends got his third acceptance with full funding in Chemistry while none of my applications have made a decision. I was like, "is it that they are not seeing my application?" I just turned off my data and slept off. So i woke up yesterday morning and turned on my data only to receive two emails from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute that i have been admitted for their PhD in Chemical Engineering with full mouth watery funding.
Am super excited about the offer! But i am still waiting for Ga Tech and Minnesota so i will just wait.
Fall2019, we're going somewhere.

congratulations boss. I tap into your success story.

please can you help me with a compelling motivation letter that I can compare with the one I have here. kindly forward to my email address here baretutu@gmail.com

Thank you for sharing with us

Good pm house. I was watching bbc world news today they read that Germany just avert economic recession. my question is How does this news affect us?

Eldeee:
I want to believe you have already answered your question with the replies gotten from your program coordinator. A good number of us here are also battling to get the required funds just like you and still pushing, praying and believing God for a breakthrough.

Honestly you are even lucky your program gives you room to state your financial situation. It's actually rare to find such. Ask around if you think am lieing. I will suggest you do as your program coordinator adviced, they said a closed mouth is a closed destiny. You never can tell, they might work out a financial scheme for you. But above all this, if you believe in God, pray and ask Him to make it happen for you. All the very best bro.

Thank you so much for such a response. I deeply appreciate., I will do as advised believing God will make a way for us all as we seek a better future in the right direction. I wish everyone here Gods favour.

Good afternoon fellow scholars. please and please I have gone far in my winter admission application but along the line I feel discouraged on the part of proof of financial document. I dont have the complete fund, I am considering student loan but dont know of any institution that offers such. However, the course I am applying to offers financial support of which intending scholars must disuss with the course coordinator while applying for admission through mail . I have been communicating with my prospective course coordinator which he advised me to indicate my financial need in my application form and also indicate it in my ML. I'm scared if indicating this financial support might jeopardise my chance of admission though he stated that it wont be used as a criteria for judging admission offer. please beloved brothers and sisters kindly advice me on this matter because its given a though time and sleepless nights.
Thank you so much
Best regards.

please someone should respond to this . Thanks

yes

Thank you dailydollar

Good evening fellow scholars. I want to know if my Bsc statement of result can serve in place of Bsc certificate?

Jagabanbaby:
The last time I checked, it was through email. But this might vary with courses. So I will advise you to send an email to the course coordinator or supervisor of the course you're applying to.

Since GRE is not mandatory, you can leave it but if you have written the exam and you have the result you can equally attach it as it might increase your chances.

Just apply to as many courses as you can. And to me focus on the ones you don't have to pay for uniassist so you can reduce cost.

Hope it helps.

Thank you so much I am grateful. I have taken down your advice . I have written to the course supervisor and he is yet to reply. I kinda like the school though

Good morning and happy sunday fellow vibrant scholars. Please I am trying to apply to university of siegen , does anyone know if they accept application through uni-assist because what I have seen so far is application isdirect to the school.

Secondly, one of the required documents was stated in bracket like this GRE test (as an additional supporting document, but not mandatory) does it mean I cab omit it or what since I don't have it.

I want to be guided properly thanks.

Good. Look for any university offering scholarship on msc physics or any related course.. before you finish your programme, begin searching for job and learning German at the same time. But to qualify for a scholarship, you must have had a 2.1 in your first degree. I know at least 2 Nigerians who studied physics electronics from fut minna, who were awarded scholarship by 2 different German universities for their english-taught master's degree programmes. One came back to pick a lecturing job at one of the federal universities here while the other stayed back on a good job.

Thank you so much, I am on the search now online for schools offering msc scholarship for physics in Germany.

awelekiti:
if you studied photonics or pysics/electronics or biomedical engineering, you stand a good chance of getting a job quicker in any of the medical-related companies ( medical device and imaging manufacturers)

I am a Bsc physics holder from university of uyo Akwa ibom state Nigeria. what are my options or what step can I take to benefit from the arrays of opportunities within physics in Germany. lastly I would like to p chat you to get more information on this subject matter

awelekiti:
it all depends. If you hold a degree in a physics-related programme, you can't be jobless on Germany. Again, if you're medical technologist, you'd always be sought after. If na odd job you wan do, just understand their language first and grab a hotel job, you'd be fine in no time.

can you please shed more light on the physics and job in Germany? thanks

[quote author=IamPatriotic post=74855097][/quote]mine is delta. FTC is a diff ball game unlike delta that does things the other way round

IamPatriotic:
Are for real? that can't be true, I supervise Corps members in my Office, they have not be shortlisted, it is when they commence trainng for Corpals that I will give up....but in Nigeria, anything is possible, the more you see, the less you know....

which is your state? I am kinda confused

Ezypretty:
The best option is to go to their office, collect form, fill and submit it by hand

funny enough I am just coming out of inec office in my LGA , they told me they have closed recruitment and adhoc staff have been shortlisted that I should forget online portal, that it's a lie. I dont know which to believe or the way forward

Do you have Hp Elite book 8460P Core I5 pc? if yes , Then give me price

Hello Holocene, sorry to derail the thread a little bit. I want to connect with you to get some informations from you. I did physics/geophysics in school and I would love to discuss career issues with you.

Thank you so much
