Hi guys, please what's the link to book appointment for documents verification at the German embassy?
And how many sets of docs are you permitted to certify at a time?

Are you going to Abuja or Lagos consulate?

I don’t think i want to waste my time going, its looks like a dead end to me.

The answer to this their negligence of duty is to cancel and reapply.

But e get as e be ooo!
A couple of guys here said they have blocked since last year and on top the block, the rate of Forex have rose dramatically if compare to what they bought then and someone said he is on profit of 800k or so, should in case he decide to withdraw the money back.

Now I ask, why didn't this embassy push the AD to such guys that have the heart to left such amount of money untouched.

Gurus in the house, biko i need you response ASAP

How possible is that?
I have not gotten anything ready
Please what do i do
I have been waiting since 2019 for date, i have even given up on Germany waka until this evening
Please help�

I thought the embassy said they have deleted all the data in their system before the commencement of winter semester application, which I knew a couple of guys inhere that received their mail and were told to reapply by late April or so.

How come they still have your visa application since 2019?

The most annoying thing about all these certificates is their expiry date.. with that huge amount of money paid..
or can it be accepted by schools after the expiry date?

Bro they won't accept once it expired. Let's say that's another way IDP and The British Council device in milking our hard earn money.

Since you already speak good English, you shouldn't have much difficulty, I recently did my IELTS with less than 1 week preparation with the Testprep app, I got a 7.5. mind you, for most courses all you need is a 6.0.


Would you mind share a screenshot of the app

Not all degree hodlers in Nigeria can speak or write good English.

Yea you're right, but my own is that the IELTS fees is too exorbitant and it's not something you're sure of getting in one sitting if you're not serious with burning of midnight candles.

You don't have any language problem regarding this school's language requirements.
You have studied in English, you have written a thesis or project in English.
You're good to go. In unclear cases, you can always email the school stating that your entire education in Nigeria has been in English so they may wave English test for you.
However, some schools insist on TOEFL, IELTS and likes.

This people are damn serious with English language certificate. Have written to about seven different schools but it was as if they had a meeting among themselves that they always respond in the same manner

"Dear Applicant,

thank you for your e-mail.

Please note that the English language certificate needs to be send in together with the other required documents. An accreditation can not be done without all required documents.

I remain at your disposal for all further questions."

Please if you have the money or the opportunity to write IELTS or TOEFL biko do.

Although I still wonder why the Europeans are hard on us based on this language certificate.
Once burst into an official document, in which all of them agreed that the official language in Nigeria is English language yet they still bent on asking us to provide English language certificate.

"Mit dieser Kopiebeglaubigung ist Keine Bestatigung der Echtheit oder inhaltlichen Richtigkeit der Urschrift verbunden!"

"This copy certification is not associated with any confirmation of the authenticity or correctness of the content of the original!"

Though I didn't attend a night school and I may not be that perfect in English language. Please can someone emphasize more on the above quoted statement that after seeing original certificate with pictures and institution seal, the embassy still put such caveat.

Bonn is close to Cologne, one of the largest and most populace cities in Germany. For diversity and Student jobs, Bonn is better I think and there are many schools near the city too.

Good luck and don't forget to buy me a beer if you make it to anywhere near Bonn.

You and beer. Have heard you severally mentioning this bear thing, hope we will go on a marathon beer drinking soonest?

Again, we don't even know what Naira is saying lol. Before you know blocked account fit enter 7m


Baba I disagree on this. If an AD land on May 5th and you were told to report to the embassy on 2nd June, are you saying that's not enough time to source for forex?

I'll never show remorse for such guys that will willingly trapped their hard earn money in a foreign land on the basis of "they don't even know what the naira is saying"

Hello guys

I haven’t been able to get a date for appointment and I want to withdraw my funds from fintiba , how do I go about this pls ?

Like you guys have excess money. Why funding account when you have not gotten AD from the embassy. No need to rush. Wait till you get AD.

Moreover, they still give three to four weeks space before the D-day, now I ask what's the essence of rushing to block account when you're aware the embassy will give you close to a month space to put your self in order.

Hello Boss,

Do you have a sample proof of English proficiency letter obtained from your school?

I need to get one but no idea how my Registrar should structure it.

Actually I'm using IELTS thus, no idea on English proficiency letter but you can check on previous pages. There is a page such discussion took place, and someone dropped a letter she got from her school tho can't remember the particular page.

Please how can I certify my documents in Nigeria

Better you go to German embassy because' there are lots of protocols with ministry of foreign affairs and education...Don't be surprise you will spend the whole day trying to get your documents certify coupled with Naija way of doing things 'roja me level'.

At the German consulate you won't spend more than 30 minutes or they may even signal you to enter before the time they gave you.

Will urge you to go online and book certification appointment with them.

Do a school search on DAAD. Applications are still open in a lot of schools till July 15. Some schools start receiving applications June 1


Majority will close application by July 31.
There is much time to make enquiry on schools you have in mind pending if your docs are all ready.

"IMPORTANT NOTICE: Due to the very high demand the consulate apologizes for not being able to offer more appointments for student visa applications for the summer semester 2021 as we are fully booked out."

Guess you got confused on the above quoted lines. Actually people still get AD and visa currently. I knew someone that applied on May 3rd and on May 5th his AD mail landed.

Please I need information on life in Karlsruhe. Are there job opportunities?
How is the racism over there

Bro why getting fear over 'racism'? like you have not build resistance on that, are you really in Nigeria? Haven't you been denied a job you qualified for in a multinational cooperation after series of examination both oral and written aspects of the interview based on name and skin colour?

For me I'm not afraid of that slur term 'racism' again, because' after experiencing it in my so called mother land why do I have to be afraid or get depressed because' of attitude of one 'mumu'?

Well I have already applied to Hochschule Karlsruhe and other unis across Germany.

Will urge you to start in earnest to build resistance and until then...

To reduce the DHL charges, you can send all the certified copies to a trusted person/friend in Germany, who then sorts and post the documents via Deutsche Post to the schools.

A Kompaktbrief (up to 8 pages inside (50g), 23,5 x 12,5 x 1,0 cm envelope), for example, costs 0,95€ to send within Germany. To track or/and verify delivery (with/without signature), you can include add-ons (see image below). https://shop.deutschepost.de/internetmarke?tid=sk06_05

Please be mindful that this would only be helpful if you are to send the documents to the schools personally and not from a Nigerian institution to a German one.

Best.

Please tell me the school names that the application is still on maybe I can apply to more , I think it’s risky to apply to just one school

Pls must I certify all documents before uploading? NOTE- I’m using online application and not through Uni-assist

You don't need to upload certified copies just the original docs, but
after your online application, 'some' schools still expect you to send photocopies to them (certified photocopies including photocopy of your int'l passport). As they will say "please inform your self that you're not sending original copies of your docs but certified photocopies..."

I have like 6-7 schools to send my certified photocopies but still dey reason the money for DHL charges.

Hello my nairaland fam. Been a very long time, I literally spared all day to read all the posts I've missed, about 15 to 20 pages. Lol

Don't mind me, I'm just concerned to know the present condition. I was initially sad it's still the same story but with the last 2 pages, ADs are flowing this May. Gut!

I pray God settles everyone. Let me firstly reinstate this fact someone earlier mentioned, let's be cautious of what we post here. I had an experience on my interview day(last year) and the embassy staff referenced this page. So, I'm sure of what I'm saying. My point? They know what's going on, they have always known but for reasons best known to them, AD na wahala.

For those of us trying other countries, I wish us well and I even need update of easy eu countries to process o, lol ( for my guys in naija tho). So, please anyone with useful info, kindly reach out.


Dont let us give up. Na who give up mess up. Germany is very cool and worth the struggle( once you enter, you would technically forget all these struggles, as I was readingthe thread today, na so I dy remember the struggles 2019/2020 but we thank God) The weather is getting more friendlier and I personally thank God for His favour I'm still enjoying. Let me use this opportunity to advise those going for interviews soon and those coming very soon not to come to DE with the mentality that " na Europe, we no need God again", hmmmm. Getting to Germany na big deal, settling in na another bigger deal. For without Him, we can do nothing...

I'm online at the moment to answer any questions or any clarification

One love bosses!

What did they ask you about narialand. I'd mind if you can give full details of your interaction with the VO concerning this thread.
Thanks.
