Very true.....I was hoping you won't drop the names of the schools but u did already. "You want to go to German and not willing to research" no b so life easy oh...

My 2 kobo

babe no vex we go do enough research I told one guy the data u use to do Facebook will do enof research for you he yab and insulted me no b small i just waka pass

Rosicky7:
What they needed were soft copies of my documents, no mention of certifying anything. FAU was advanced materials and processes, and Bremen was materials chemistry and mineralogy. I think the problem is that people just want info sharp sharp and are not putting in enough effort. I spent days going through each school's requirements on daad.de eliminating those that didn't favour me, before settling for these 3. Having spent some money earlier chasing the 'Canadian dream' , I knew I had to work hard to make this one click, with the little funds I had. I will advice others to do same. The benefit of starting your search on time.

OK I applied to Bremen same course and was admitted but for FAU I didn't even go there cos them break my heart for summer I applied for MSC Chemiayry and was rejected saying my BSc chemistry is not equivalent so this winter I didn't even look there aide couple with many people I know that applied and where hearing many stories I just didn't even check dem out .
Bottom line no two course have same requirement or application process even if they are in the same school .
Guy you just need to do enough research before u apply don't follow them say what rocks my boat might jus crash yours.

Finally bros which area are you heading mine is Bremen sha

Rosicky7:
RWTH Aachen,
Uni-Bremen,
FAU Nürnberg - Erlangen

If you have been following the thread, I don't need to tell you the school that rejected me! Lol. You should also have to check with your particular course at these universities as they may have a different requirement. Eg. I hear a lot of people talking about certifying your documents for FAU, I wasn't asked to certify o.

didn't you send your document to them which one did u send ?
Also which course did you apply for in FAU and Bremen

aibee01:
.. you need to pay attention to each post before commenting..... is there ABOKI in Germany?... Obviously from the guy’s post he stays in Germany.

Secondly, to the issue of certification... Eke explained the basic standard.., Although some schools are not so strict about it (even some don’t require any sent documents) while some insisted on certification only from the embassy...
To reduce time and probably financial cost most people used Court certification with just a stamp... (100% legit)

As pointed out you need to take a calm approach to your responses...

Lastly, don’t put much pressure on family and friends for sponsorship.... people are hustlers here. Even some professionals salaries and expenses doesnt qualify them (at times pressure make people lie and they thought you are not well informed)... too bad though...

Even if they seems rich .. it might be through black jobs or undocumented businesses... (that can’t get them Verpflichtungserklärung)... This a fact...

With some state now requiring Führungszeugnisses of the sponsor (criminal records) people are now more skeptical about issuing it...

NB.. A rich man Nigeria standard might be hustling here.

By His grace after one month winter breze in Bremen am highly positive your approach to commenting and life in general will change.... Insha Allah.

OK noted

cjall:
My Oga, please which of the court in PH did you certify documents. Am in ph and will need any contact you have at the high court. Please what is the cost. Thanks

I used federal high court close to town and I was charged I think 300naira for 5copies and na remita code dem.even give me self to pay but since I no fit go bank I gave the accountant 1k for that so in essence I spent 1k for 5 copies can't remember but official price I was charged is 300naira

Eke40seven:
I understand this quite well, I also used Ikeja high court during my time with ink stamps but these federal high courts do have ink emblems and they make sure they do it quite well, but not all states follow all the rules...
Federal high courts and Major state high courts do follow the standard rules but many courts in some obscure towns (pardon my language) do not... There have been many cases where applicants documents were rejected few days before deadline because of this simple rule... A lot of applications... One must be very very careful, you don't know where the banana peel might be stationed waiting for you the slip...

thank you for understanding that's why I said not totally correct but someone has already turned lawyer on the matter lol.

Am not sending ele40seven away sir Cruz read my message again but all the same one love

Eke40seven:
Be careful where you do your notary, check out the stipulated methods to make sure it fits the description and standard in Germany.
Always make sure there is a seal with an emblem and not just "text stamps"
The date and name of the notary or person who checked it.
Be sure that it is signed.

Preferably the stamp is embossed. Although the best is the one from the embassy, no one rejects it but in case you are leaving far, make sure that you engage a notary to will ensure that all is taken care of. Once you find the right notary, have as many blatts as possible in case of further applications.

the word in bold are not totally correct I applied to.more than 15 schools in Germany even the Almighty FAU never rejected my certified document which carries just a stamp from federal high court here in port harcourt.
Yes embassy is the surest but they can't do more than 3/5 for you so what do you do with the others ? Mind u some schools don't even have form they just want you to scan and send certified document to them so what do you do ?
Notary public or high court or embassy na same thing
Do you know your school can even certify your documents as true copy? Or ministry self so just no put fear for our body

kfrosh:
Is there no cost implication in applying to 10 schools? Sorry for my being naive.

none of the school is free anyway that's why i say start early so u can use NIPOST for your application also I was able to.meet guys here that helped me submit application to some schools in Germany that only require you to send the forms filled only alone without sensing certified copy.

Let's get this all schools in Germany are not same out of all the schools I applied to like 9 I only send hard copy application to one and uniassit which I didn't finally pay for cos I got admission.

So for me I will advise search for more schools that have online application and those you don't need to send certified documents to so u can easily send the online Dilled form to a friend to print and submit for you.
In all you do try to reduce cost but you must incurs cost but reduce it to the barest minimal that's all

Hope this help

phodio:
I did only one and got it. And I have people that did just only one and got. So, it depends on couple of factors and one just need to make an informed decision. 3 schools are OK. But if more than 3 is needed, one should know is needed based on some of the factors I indicated. But if he can do as many as possible, he can go on. Only that the guy wants to cut down the list. That's why I suggested that.

lucky you but me I always say apply to more cos I advise someone to do exactly this and he had a good cgpa but he didn't get any so I advise people apply for as many as your cash can get please start early and use NIPOST like me

swisster:
i was supposed to do my certification at Awka high court, bt it was too expensive,so i hav to do it at umuahia @ 100 naira per copy

please define what you mean by copy to us domyou mean a page or a full package which includes all the required documents doe certification ?

Fustinachichi:
Noooo am a girl....and a very very veryyyyfine girl sef . ..I no fit lodge any place any how.... 3k, they will be drink too much alcohol for that place...No, even the army barrack is doing me one kind.....am afraid of Lagos people....noo 3k...I will just close eye and look for a better one

badmus306:
Dailydolar told you the truth man, go aboki side.

bros leave am make we keep quiet as him say its not tangible.
We are watching

OnePunchMan:
Learn to pass by if have no tangible input.

if that's is not tangible then I wonder what you need again well you are derailing the forum.na German visa wey dey tall no buying and selling of euro sir may be that's why I don't have anything tangible to say sorry about that oya keep finding but I know say this is not the fiat time you are playing this continue in mama P voice

phodio:
It basically depends on your cgp. With a good cgp and averagely OK mission statement, you don't need to apply to much schools. Just max of 3 is OK and the best way, for me, to cut down the list is to look for schools that don't require uni assist for their application process. That uni assist is one hell of headache for me. Kudos to those that went through uni assist process.

Although you need a cgp of 2.5 German scale. But personally, if your cgp is not 2.1 naija cgp, then you need more backups especially if the school's admission is restricted. If your cgp is now below 2.5 German scale, carefully apply to as many schools as you can, ensure mission statement is top notch and avoid restricted applications.

All in all, you just have to look carefully into these factors (not limited to these) and make a good personal decision before cutting down the list.

Good luck

did I hear you say 3schools I won't advise that I did more than 10 and only two admission show so Bros do as many as possible but just do max of tep for uniassist school if you must do them coa I didn't do any uniassit.
Enjoy

osas87:
Hmmmm, from own view, its possible that the so called friend is not qualified or not doin legitimate stuffs so thats his best bail-out excuse.....

heybaby12:

Chriswazo:

Reichtum:
A friend wants to assist me with SL but the alien office in Hamburg didn't grant him. They told him that he must have a company in Germany to be eligible.
How true is this?
I'm sad here

Highbeeyajibola:
Though they got my doc from uni-assist over 4weeks plus now

Studied chemistry

Hope u have admission from other schools

Eldeee:
@ dailydolar, my issues with such like this is that they just want to be spoon fed every seconds, I keep wondering why people can't read any longer, and they want to enroll for studies.

if you complain dem go begin insult you, even insult your father join. And a greater number of such have never and will never contribute anything positive to this lovely thread, but instead are more interested in what they will get. It's quite appaling to see this continually. May God help us.

I just tire bros nothing wey person no go ask .
Even the ones you can just read two pages back and get solution I tire .

ubsilas:
Hello guys, I did my interview today, this nairaland forum has been of great help to a lot of us, I want to appreciate everyone. So my transcript...

I got to the embassy at 5:30am, I was the second person on the queue. Since I stay very far from VI I had to lodge. God bless the person that informed us of the lodge at Bonny Camp, that place is preferable for me cos I left my lodge at 5:15 and in 15 minutes time I was at the embassy on foot trekking. The name of the lodge I stayed is 'Sappers Lodge', I used the 7k. Please I will advise that in order to secure the room, try and book early cos they have very few of those rooms and they are always booked out.

So back to the event of the day, because of what I learnt here I ignored all those people at d park trying to get money for one thing or the other, I just went in with my envelope of documents.

Oga Paulinus arrived at 6am, carried out his usual arrangement by this time we were up 20 on the queue. At 7am He called people for students visa to come in and announced to us how to arrange or documents according how he calls it. Please I will advice that with a paper clip you should attach your original to your 2 photocopies so that it will be easier to arrange. While I was there, Oga Paulinus sent 2 guys to the back because they were slow in arranging their documents, just be calm and follow his instructions, ignore his shouting and be focused because if u r allow it get to you, you will be destabilized.

At 7:15, those of us that our documents were arranged were called in for interview, I was praying not to get the lady everyone complains about even though I had prepared. So I entered the and lo and behold it was the dark guy, I first of smiled:

V.O.: Can I have your documents please?

V.O.: What course and you going for and where is it located? Which state?

V.O.: When did you finish school and what have you been doing since you left school?

V.O.: Can I have your Visa fee of N27000

V.O.: Private or Public School?

V.O.: Have you funded your Blocked Account? With how.much

V.O: How much is your tuition?

V.O.: Have you paid any amount to the school?

V.O.: Who is your sponsor?

V.O.: Why this course?

V.O.: Why Germany and not US, UK or any other English speaking country?

V.O.: What's your plan after your study?

V.O.: Tell.me key facts about Germany and please be specific

V.O.: Your bachelor's thesis?

V.O.: That will be all, we will communicate to you via mail, he gave me back my passport and the receipt of payment

In my mind I was so that's it, I just thank my God as I was walking out of the Embassy, even the guys at the security we're surprised that it was fast, the guy we entered together was still being fired questions by the lady... I left the embassy at 7:45, feeling so relieved.
I give God all the glory. Once again guys, thank you very much for your help and support.

congrats AM awaits you

gmode:
