Close to 7 rejections so far

2 AL from Dresden and BAYREUTH

Yet to hear from 5

Kindly PM if you're going to either Dresden or BAYREUTH

God bless ��

Magma012:
it means APS CERTIFICATE.

using google definition it states that

An APS certificate is a condition for obtaining a student visa at the Belgian Embassy or Consulates General in PR China. The APS screening is not an academic selection procedure, but is meant to avoid document fraud and to guarantee a sufficient language knowledge.

hope this helps

Two rejections at a row, from the University of Tuebingen, course msc in Applied and Environmental Geoscience ( Reason is that my application arrived late and that more people ahead of me)

2ND REJECTION MSc programme
MSC in Environmental Chemistry at Bayreuth University..I scored 46 point out of 50 and I sent mail to the program coordinator asking if I am eligibl to apply to other courses in the same school and he said that I am qualified provided I observe the application deadline which is 15 June(sobs) for winter application for none EU applicants.

Still hopeful that something good will come my way..still have pending applications(can't count oo) including Uni Assist own.

Hope my 2.9 cgpa stands a fair chance for gaining admission into MSC

God's grace

I missed my certification appointment in January and I couldn't book until 3weeks later. So I think when you miss certification appointment, you'd get a 3weeks ban

mboyo:
Bro what about a graduate with a 2.33 cgpa in Business Administration? It's been hard getting AL because they're all pointing out to the low grade. About 11 schools denied me already. I need help I know go for another bsc

Richy5008:
Hello pls help me out
I initially booked an appointment for certification but due to issues I was not present for the appointment. Nw am finding it difficult to reschedule the appointment. Pls what can I do

Konphi:
So, a friend contacted the embassy to ask them if category A can be booked for bsc holders applying for another bsc in Germany. Let me drop this here.Please see response below:

SooCute:
Dollarman how far now? Choi see ablemen them.

Eldeee:
Lol..... No be small thing bro, the dollar man, just keep doing good nevertheless the tantrums. Your oil will never run dry. How the hustle baba, hope you're doing great. Cheers

Immafrank:
Greeting y'all,

If you graduated from Houdegbe North American University Benin Rep. or you know somebody that graduated from there and wants to apply to Germany for study. It is a NO NO!! My friend was rejected yesterday on the basis that Houdegbe North American University is not recognized in Germany and any degree from that school is not recognized in Germany too. So if you graduated from there, don't bother wasting money for uni assist or sending of documents.

chekz169:
I just hope that this explanation to the reason of ticking scholarship in Cat A. has been detailed to other VO’s
because we plenty way tick scholarship in order to book A.

HighPriest0:
Honestly, since I started this German Waka, I have never been this shocked. All was set for my interview next week - motivation was high. Then, suddenly, someone gets bounced yesterday for booking wrong category. I had to cancel and book B. My worry now is I don't know when I'm going to get another date with the way they give dates under category B.
Enrollment deadline is August 31st and Hamm-lipstadt seems not poised to give extensions. I don't know if I am going to make it this year.
I'm just tired Meenn.

Let the will of the Lord prevail...

Eldeee:
*Open a block account as soon as possible. There are about four financial institutions approved by the embassy. But pls avoid Deutsch Bank like a plague, unless you want cancel your Waka this year. Their bureaucracy is so annoying. Fintiba has been fun and lovely and happens to be most appreciated for a good number of us. Everything done online and no negative reviews about them since inception. Xpatrio is online too, but we have gotten some negative reviews about them as regards third party issues. And it's even a bit expensive than fintiba on the long run. Coracle just came in new into the fold. No much reviews so far, can't say about their effectiveness if any.

NB : Please note am not a marketer for any of this banks, before you mistake me for doing a marketing campaign. I am just spilling out the beans, cos I know you definitely need to make informed decisions.

* Fund your account immediately with €8640 (Bank charges exclusive) if you have the money available. If not, you can still go to the interview without funding. But make sure you fund your account.

* There's no need for notarization of documents at this stage. All you need do is to photocopy originals of the documents on the checklist for student visa application. Make sure you bring along with you both the original copy and the photocopies as specified on the checklist. You will drop both the originals and photocopies for them of which your originals will be returned back to you when you come to collect your visa.

*You need to book for student visa appointment as soon as possible to enable you get a date for the interview. If you have got a first class or second class upper or lower in your bachelors, together with a masters degree admission, then book for category A. Every information you need to enable you do this is on the German embassy website. If you are confused about anything there, feel free to ask for guidance here, people are always available and ever willing to help.

* Prepare for your interview very well by reading through other people's experience here. You can get examples of such here made available by some kind hearted folks. Hope you will be kind enough to share your experience too for others to benefit after you are done.

* After the interview, if successful, of which you will definitely be at least to a large extent, the consulate sends you what we call Approval mail (AM). They will demand for your travel insurance and your passport for stamping.

* I don't think you need to pay for semester fees from here unless otherwise stated by the school. A good number of schools allow you to come in first and during your registration, you then pay for it. But if your school demands you pay before coming in, they will probably give you instructions as regards how best you can go about it.

Feel free to ask questions here whenever you get confused, but please and please do some little research first, Google should be your friend now, not instagram, twitter or facebook. Please don't come here feeling entitled or expecting to be spoon fed, you will definitely get a doze of lashing if you fail to do the needful no matter what. We always recommend you read through this thread for your own benefit. A lot of tangible information are domiciled here free of charge.

Chai, I don write sermon again ooooo, na wa oooo, just to explain something, two fool scap sheets don finish, Lol. Anyway If I decide to summarize, I think it would not help you to a large extent since you are basically new, as I will be removing so much vital details which will benefit you and others as well.

Eldeee:
why can't you ask your questions here to enable others benefit as well. You guys should stop all this nonsense crap of pm someone for selfish private consumption of information.

Slip:
I guessed the one he paid for is ATTESTATION OF BIRTH at NPC.

The thing is NPC Birth certificate for those who where born at the time is 2k at Surulere office that's if you can negotiate very well. But ATTESTATION OF BIRTH cost 5k within at least 10 days. Some maybe lucky to get theirs within a week. Don't let anybody extort you for fast tracking where they tell u to pay 7500 or 10k as somebody said above.

Premiercare:
Like seriously! Was he asked why he booked category A or what evidence he has to support category A?

germanmanny:
PLEASE WHERE CAN I FIND A CHEAP HOTEL CLOSE TO THE EMBASSY, I HAVE INTERVIEW NEXT TWO WEEKS...PLEASE HELP........

Eldeee:
Even at that bro, I want to believe some other persons who by chance happen to be there at the consulate saw it happen or probably might have heard the VO telling him that cos you can somehow hear what goes on in the other cubicle when you are in the waiting room or probably inside the cubicle.

From my understanding of what dailydolar said, the guy booked category A with a HND degree which of course it's not the Bsc as specified on the website. But what stops him from telling people here what we witnessed, even though it wasn't a good experience. Someone will definitely learn from it and adjust for the good. Let's be fair enough to ourselves. With this attitude am sorry to say, there's no future for this thread, unless there is a change. God help us all. Shalom.

Premiercare:
Ehn Ehn. Now this is information. It means it was not at the gate he was turned back. This absolves the other guys who were there for their own interview from knowing. What transpired between the VO and the candidate can only be known by the candidate. Please let us help one another with info. God bless.

Konphi:
I dnt think HND certificate holders can book category A. Have you heard of any bachelors degree holder (with 2.2 max) who booked for category A being bounced?

Conqueror89:
Bros i dont know about the 2k own o, though am not disputing the possibilities.
But i did mine at surelere here in lagos for 7,500 and i got it within 5 working days. Though i paid for express. Heard the normal one is 5,200 and it takes sometimes before it comes out.

Somberyl:
Wow!
I just read that it's 10k for people above 18. How true is this biko?

Somberyl:
If I may ask, I was born 1993 and I have a birth certificate from the hospital. Do I need to worry about NPC certificate?

Emexnairaland:
No

DemigodZeus147:
Okay... When I enquired at NPC office Surulere. They said I need to get an affidavit from court, then bring it to them inorder to be issued a NPC attestation of birth certificate.

DemigodZeus147:
An attestation of birth issued by National Population Commission.... But first you need to go to the highcourt and get an affidavit of age /birth declaration sworn by the head of your family (dad/mum).Then, take it to National Population Commission office, where they will issue you the Attestation of birth certificate.

jmanity:
How will one sort out no 1 on that list for student upkeep? The €8640 for block account doesn't come in school letterhead.

Bloodeagle:
Use the second one(Wednesday)

It simply means they have shifted your initial date from from Monday to Wednesday due to technicalities.

It happened to one of my friends

You can also mail the embassy...

GREGORIAN:
APPLY BEFORE OPEN, COZ CRITERIA FOR BLOCK IS AL
