Mobsync:
Thanks for the reply.

On the bolded, I too had a similar experience around 2014 when I imported some stuffs nobody wanted.

That was my first time importing.

But I would later import power banks a year later, and it sold well

Olumyyde:

Who knows, if you bought the ride then, you would have switched to Uber business after losing the job.
By now, you will have like 2 to 3 cars on the platform and still be the BOSS.

Mobsync:
What then did you do with the money? Did you get the land?

Emperorc95:
You still stay with your folks and your utmost priority is to get a car?? Brother first of all move out and get your own place, furnish it and start living there. When you pay house rent, nepa bill, subscribe DSTV, pay water bill, pay security levy, stock your house with foodstuffs then you will know that 100k salary is nothing in nigeria. Buying car won't even come into your mind again

Meliian:
You're wicked o. Hahahahahaha.....you have a way with sarcasm. Well done! Lol.

sidunteysplace:

If i did anything right in my life, it was when i gave my heart to you.
You are my best friend, My soulmate, my EVERYTHING
I LOVE YOU.

I really have to thank those who stayed back to help even after getting their visas and despite their busy study and work programs in Germany.

I also have to thank those who shared their experiences right from visa journey to life in Germany as foreign students.


For newbies your German school search starts here https://www.daad.de/deutschland/studienangebote/en/



The following steps will help newbies (Thanks to CassieV for the tips)


Most of the schools in Germany are tuition-free even for international students, you only get to pay a certain amount as semester fees say between 100-400 euros and most times the semester fee comes with a semester ticket to aid in transportation in your city or town.
However, before you're granted a student visa, you have to prove that you can take care of your living expenses with one of the following means ;
1. Block account: The estimated living expenses for a student in a month is 720euros when you multiply that by 12 months, you get 8640euros. This is the amount you're required to block in an already opened account with either Deutsch bank, Fintiba or Xpatrio. It is called a block account because you will not be able to withdraw everything at once, only 720euros will be released to you every month.
2. Sponsorship letter: If you have a relative living and working legally in Germany, they can get you this letter. They'll have to visit the alien office in their city and will be required to provide some documents and pay a certain fee. The letter will be sent to you when they receive it so that you can go with it for your visa interview.
3. Scholarship: This is usually the best if you have the scholarship, your visa will be granted in under 2 weeks after the interview. So try and look for scholarships you can apply to.

Now that you understand the financial situation, let's go into the application process.
To search for schools, click on this link
https://www.daad.de/deutschland/studienangebote/international-programmes/en/?p=l&q=&fos=0&lang[]=2&fee[]=0&sortBy=1&page=1&display=list
filter your search to make it easier, there are English taught courses there.
Generally, the very important documents needed to apply to schools in Germany are;
1. Transcript
2. English Proficiency
3. School Certificates (Degree, Waec, etc)
However, depending on the school, some other documents needed are as follows.
4. Curriculum Vitae
5. Motivation letter
6. Reference letters
7. GRE test
8. Etcetera.. Visit your prospective school website and find out the documents they need from you.
Note: You don't apply with your original documents, you have to make photocopies of them and Certify them in High court or a Notary public. If you stay in Lagos, you can certify at the German Embassy too. You'll have to book an appointment for that.
For those planning to go for a Bachelors course, you need a 100level transcript from a university to apply for a BSc program in Germany. WAEC alone will not be enough and No, OND will not do, you need an HND.

For the application proper, it is always important to go through the website of the schools you want to apply to, you'll get a lot of information from there concerning how to apply. Some schools do only online applications, some require that you send your application documents to them by post after applying online, some you send your documents as pdf to their email address and then you get the uni-assist crew.
Like I said earlier, it is important to go visit and read the websites.

When you get your admission letter, open a block account immediately(that is if you don't already have a sponsorship letter) and as soon as you get your account details, send an email to the embassy requesting for a visa interview date.
You need these to get an interview date:
1. Admission letter
2. Block account/sponsorship letter/scholarship letter
3. International passport data page(scanned)
Then your Full name and Resident address.

Prepare for your interview
Go for your interview

ALL THE BEST!

Good Afternoon Guys,

This is a really nice thread. Very helpful.

I had my interview on 8th of June. I am going on Erasmus Scholarship so I wasn't really interviewed. I just submitted my documents and passport.

I got my AM today - 11th of July. Thanks to everyone that helped in one way or the other. I'm grateful.

Also, I want to ask, the AM said I should send Passport and Travel insurance. I have my insurance but the embassy has my passport already. Should I just send my travel insurance and indicate it in a writing that they have my passport already, or I should just send the insurance only like that?

Congrtas

Is the eramus scholarship open to all courses?

Thank you.
