Good morning to all veterans in the house

Please I have a question and I will love if I can get the replies because that would help me a lot and set me in the right direction

I have certified my documents and I will be writing TOEFL in a couple of weeks

I am rushing this because I have plans to travel to UAE by January. I will start my April application from UAE

Now this is my question. Is it possible for me to arrange my embassy appointment in UAE? or should I chill in Nigeria and apply from here

The plan is to enter Germany from UAE, and I am doing this just to hustle a bit

I will appreciate your reply

Someone told me that Nigerian ladies abroad hardly see Nigerian men to marry them, travelling out as a single lady is not good, please is it true?

Nairalander pls advice. 

I was travelling with my family to Canada from Lagos, and flew through Lufthansa, so a stop over at Germany. On time to board from Germany to Canada, the airline said our visa was cancelled for no reason. We eventually thought since they won't allow us fly to our destination we can then stay here to seek Aduro. They took our passport, few weeks in camp they gave us a house and we had quickly finish our interview under 3 weeks.. We haven't stayed up till 2 months in dis country they don knack us negative, we even appeal, court still reject am but we don't get lawyer and the lawyer no dey somewhat serious. Another letter come from court and shows they can pick us up anytime and send us back to Lagos, since our passport dey there hand. Now we are thinking of changing country and go try our luck elsewhere. We already have finger print in germany. Please what do you guys advise.

Guten Abend alle zusammen
Special salutations to all the elders in the house.
Please, is there any one studying in Duisburg (I got admitted into Uni Duisburg - UDE). How is the accommodation situation in the town? I got a room offer from the Studentenwerk for €265 monthly. I feel it is too expensive, what do u think? I'm supposed to pay the caution/reservation fee (€600) immediately. I already bought the euro but have been experiencing problems transfering it from Naija to Germany. Please, anyone who wants to pay euro into a dorm account in Nigeria can PM me.
Thanks a lot guys.

Congratulations. But wait a minute this happens to be your very first post here, cos I can't recall seeing this name or anything close to it. honestly I must be very blunt with you, it's very much unfair. you were just consuming and never cared to give out from your wealth of knowledge. If others decide to act the way you choose to do, I wonder where you would have gotten some vital tips that have saved you quite a fortune which I believe you can attest to. The Holy Books admonish us to give, give and never stop giving.

I am saying this not just for you alone at this point, but for several others who also happens to employ this tactics. somebody here lamented bitterly about our veterans not coming back to update us with tons of valuable information, though I can't really say why, but hope we will still see more of you coming to advice the upcoming applicants who definitely need your knowledgeable guidance. Hope this won't be the very last time we will hear from you.

Congratulations once again. Go to deutschland and do great exploits.

Hello Fam,
Congrats to everyone who's gotten their A.M.
So, I've decided to defer until winter. Couldn't get a SL so i'll do block @winter.
Pls I just want to ask what's the best way to prosecute it. I reckon I'd have to write to my school first, secure a deferment and then notify the Embassy. Any advice on how best to state my reason? Pls feel free to inquire about any info regarding my case if that would help. Thanks guys.

Good morning house please anyone with contact of a good German language private tutor based in Lagos. Thanks a lot thinking of doing private classes due to flexibility of time. Goethe has a structured programme and might not be able to meet the registration deadline.

razorblade:
Have you or anyone you know regretted going abroad for higher education?

Carlos Paul, a full scholarship student with a Masters and PhD from Germany

Yes, very much. Not studying abroad, in itself, which gave me a wealth of experience.

But taking GERMANY to do a Masters, and then a PhD.

This is a country

That moans about immigrants but won t give the most qualified, those who have German degrees, even as prestigious as a PhD, a realistic chance. If You’re Considering Graduate School in Germany
Your years spend here count for nothing. You basically go and beg immigration to give more time. I have been here for more than seven years and I am in the same position as when I first landed in Germany. n spite of my degrees, my scholarships, my fluent German, my talents, I might have to go back to the hell hole I escaped from years ago.
German universities spend millions trying to attract students. What they don t tell you is that they think it is technology transfer. You are supposed to return to your god forsaken hole of a country and teach the natives how to do things. Please, don t fall for this scam. You are better off doing a Masters in the most prestigious university in your own country and then applying for a PhD in a country that will give you immigrant status. Come only if you are offered a good scholarship, and then use that to apply to PhDs in universities in countries that will give you permanent residence far more easily.
Don t fall for the myth that STEM students have it easier. They face the same barriers of broken immigration system, a xenophobic recruitment policy and alienation from mainstream society. Why do you think that after decades of sponsoring foreign students Germany does not have a single CEO/successful entrepreneur who came as an international student?
ATTN MASTERS STUDENTS If you are a top non EU student and the professor is actively encouraging you to pursue a PhD in Germany, RUN. Use her/his goodwill to get a great recommendation letter for another country. She/He is doing it because, increasingly, the professor’s funding for PhD programs is conditional on the internationalization of the program. Once you complete the PhD the professor will do nothing to help you stay on and instead will actively encourage you to return to your home country so that you can create more networks for him/her and German graduate programs. If you want to be sure ask her or him if she or he will help you stay on permanently after your studies. Germans are generally honest—you ll either get a commitment, or much, much more likely, a refusal. If she or he blabbers about the 1.5 years post graduation to find a job, good recommendations etc, that s a NO. RUN!!. It could save years of your life.
I am sick of a broken system where professors and the university administration spends millions sending delegations to seduce students, where DAAD has its own offices and minions to spread the propaganda, where the actual teaching is done by poorly paid PhD candidates or docents (PhD s who can t find academic jobs but are connected to the university on a freelance basis)
I am sick of a rotten system where professors are civil servants who cannot be sacked and one professor may have over 35 PhDs working under him/her while he/she jet sets around the world luring more students and creating tie ups to bring in even more. Do you even think that he or she even reads your chapters?!
Your language skills count for nothing. It only gives you an year off the time required towards citizenship, but that s only if you have a permanent residence. No points for fluent German.Even if you speak German you are an auslander. Many interviews will be conducted in German, and many ads for computer engineers or even English teachers will demand fluent C2 level German!!!
You are given a job search visa but it comes with so many conditions. You have to show 8,000 euros in a blocked account. You have to show a job otherwise. If you can manage to get a job in a call center or Amazon do you think they ll give you leave to go look for a job?! And the Amazon or call center job won t get you permanent residence because you don t need a PhD, or even a masters to do that! So after 1.5 years you are out. Germany should be honest. Tell the world they don t want non EU immigrants even highly educated ones.
In sum, while I don t regret studying abroad I regret studying in a country where nothing but my passport actually counts. All it has given me is constant stress leading to severe depression.

Hi please I have a question.

I applied for german language course student visa in November. I did my interview and everything. They asked for more information which I sent to them but it is now March and they still have not gotten back to me. I've emailed the embassy in Lagos twice now asking for an update but they said there isn't one. I'm getting worried. What can I do?
