Rosicky7:
which FedEx office did you go to? Where u bought it or their central office in your location?

okafor1989:


But y are they doing that now? This is very bad. Anyway thanks for the clue.

How long did u wait before visiting the courier office?

samajayi1:


What information did you see when u try tracking it. And how long after you sent your passport did you go to FedEx

honourableseyi:



If you are above 30, use mawista student classic. It is around €37 per month but will jump to €63 per month at the end of the first year. But note, you pay the bills yourself at the hospital while you will be reimbursed afterward by the insurance company after sending the bills from the hospital to them. This is peculiar to all private insurance company. If you are above 30, then public will not take you unless under some few circumstances and the fee per month is very very high. If you are below 30, take public insurance, otherwise, take private. As for Fintiba insurance, forget it. Shalom

Highbeeyajibola:


I think the can get but the price is around 104£ compared to people below 30 which is 90£

uchezdedon:


Public health insurance is the best if u can afford it and if u are the type that visit hospital often. I always recommend public health insurance for ladies.

U can try Mawista or care concept (not basic package). They are all private but not to compare public health insurance.

So i got to the consulate today, and when one man called us to arrange our document... I said to myself that must be the almighty Paulinus. Lol. But the way the man was gently explaining how to arrange documents including to one guy wey no bring signed declaration and motivation letter, I said to the lady sitting nearby, certainly, this ISN'T Paulinus!
So the VO that interviewed me was calm. He was asking the normal questions before biometrics and I was relaxed answering, waiting for him to tell me to pick up the phone so we can start. Next thing I heard was "do you have any question? ", I said no, and he said you can go now. Well.... That wasn't that bad

Fustinachichi:


Wrote one and made 2copies

Fustinachichi:
Anyone coming to Lagos for interview pls stay away from EXTENDED STAY GRAND HOTEL (behind Canadian Embassy)..those people are thieves, they will make u book a room online (10,500)...when u get there, they will tell u they don't have any room for that price that their room starts from 14k. ....and the rooms are absolutely not worth the money...and a plate of rice and chicken is 3k. ...as in....

Better places to stay are New world Inn(7k), even Sapper Lodge(12k)....(don't be scared about walking alone around 5:30am, that place is really okay and safe, u will even see a lot of people out at that same time, even the queue @us embassy is ridiculous)

Secondly if u are coming from abuja like me, pls ignore those hungry airport workers, they told me getting to VI cost 7k and only for me to later ask a friend and they told me it's btw 3-5k...Lagos people have problem with integrity, I swear!...don't trust anyone in Lagos...and yes their girls wear really really short things(I was shy on their behalf)and can be very very rude

SooCute:
So about yesterday interview...
I met the Paulinus guy. I was the first to arrive the venue so I didn't know where to cue even. So I courageously inquired " Sir please where......" the guy collect me sharp sharp "Oga you can't be seeing me working and you are asking me question..go down there and que " For my mind I be like "What could have cost this man to simply say go down there and cue?"
I just feel the man needs help psychologically.

So after much arrangements of documents I was ushered in to sit down at the waiting section.

Frankfurt is the financial capital of Germany and it's about 116km from my school. Germany is the founding member of the European Union in 1958 and the 3rd largest export and importation country in the world. About 90% of German companies belong to the German "mittlestand" Which are small and medium sized enterprises mostly family owned. In 2016, Germany recorded the highest trade surplus of $310b making it the world largest capital exporter of the year. Her major export partners being the European and the US. Namibia was a German Colony from late 18th century.

VO: It is not up to us to decide. As soon as we clear you here we forward your documents to the foreign office over there. It takes us about a week to do that. The international office will decide how fast you get a response.
Me: Have a nice day Ma.



I didn't check time but the interview didn't feel like one. I read like someone looking for lecturer work because i had more than enough time to prepare coupled with different interview reports I got here. I was scared not leave any stone unturned. Read GMATS Cox I am going for engineering plus I already did Mechanical Engr here so I gat no excuse to fail their maths test if e show.
Read virtually everything readable with facts and figures! Rivers. Political parties, their colours and number of registered voters. Busiest airports in Germany. My states facts and figures. I even studied about 12 major companies in my state and what they are into. Studied the ones trekkable from my school (about 6 of them) cos I was waiting for "Tell me facts about the city you are going...blablabla.

Tips: Package facts closely related to the course you are going for. (I talked about business and entrepreneurship more because my course is Business and Engineering) E dey make them believe you.
Also talk about facts about the state you are going....when they ask you what you know about Germany.

In all....I was so relaxed. I never felt I was being interviewed. I guess that helped me recall a whole lot I read. #Grace.

I arrived at Island 01/08 against my appointment on 02/08 and settled down in a hotel " *New World Inn*". Where I never slept throughout the night for the fear of village people fanning me till I wake up by weekend! It was nice with interior wallpaper and steady light. Thanks to @Alphapen Aka Musqit Azeez and Oga Shegun aka Baba for the boys! For taking the pain to get me settled after my long-picky hotel search. Wahlahi good people dey nairaland. I mean people wey pass you for level yet them humble to the core!
If necessary...I will add few more facts about Germany so here can be a hub.

Shocker: Them know about this dollarsewuosewaland (I know why I typed it so) please be careful what you post. The VO said " I have been interviewing people for years and I know you people go-to NNNNLLLL and cram and cram. So it made me drift from the usuall answers and went to different trajectory. But if you no read how you wan take do?
Its better to do your part well enough then hope for Grace than the opposite.

God bless Us all and grant our good wishes. Amen!

Hallo everyone, good to be back here, Pls i need you guys to me help me out, i reside i port harcourt and am actually looking for a german language centre in PH, any one with any idea should let me know. Danke

Renewable0216:
Hello guys,

I trust everyone is having a great day.

In the light of the recent rejection of Student Visa application from the Embassy...It's obvious our only hope of getting them to re-think their stand is to involve our Legislators and Govt Officials.

I've read that some other Asian countries are facing similar challenge but he truth is Nigerians are the only ones in Africa. The Embassy in Accra attends to 3 countries and it's still open till probably September if not longer...so that argument does not hold water.

In nut, myself and couple of guys have thought it right to get the attention of well-meaning Nigerians to wedge in on our case and call the Embassy to act right.

An article has been put up and we need to flood our Social media handles with this information! LIKE FLOOD IT TILL THEY WOULD HAVE TO RESPOND TO IT.

I believe everyone on this platform should ACTIVELY participate in this; not only those who are yet to get interview dates.
VICTORY FOR ONE IS VICTORY FOR ALL.

This is a case of some people choosing to crush our dreams and aspirations, we shouldn't fold our arms!

If you really believe in result, then LET'S GO ALL OUT TO TWEET and RETWEET, write / share the blog url, Write on facebook, Call that Uncle and Friend in positions of authority.

Copy the President and Osibanjo, all Senators- Murray Bruce, Abike Dabiri, Dino Melaye...ALL OF THEM! , The House of Rep, Media Houses, Linda, Sahara Reporters and every other person you can.

THIS IS ABOUT OUR FUTURE...waiting one year after all the emotional, financial stress and hard work done to get the admission shouldn't go down the drain...

WE ARE THE YOUTH, WE MUSTN'T JUST ALLOW PEOPLE PEDDLE WITH OUR LIVES.


I hope this plea will resonate with everyone here...Even those that have gotten interview dates and those who are yet to even apply.

We need you to make this a reality. The likes, share, re-tweet, copy would go a lonnnnng way!

#Winter17 is possible!

Impossible is nothing!



LET THE AVALANCHE' BEGIN!!!

darlingtonNYIG:
will use axa mansard for 23k.

righthappenings:

Does that mean people without scholarship can't apply?
