Hello folks!

For those that drive, make sure you come to DL with your drivers license. You can thank me later.

And for FHWS hopefuls, come with your previous degree course module handbook.

Boss, there is something I want to be sure of.

I and my friend intend to write the ielts exam by next month. We are both applying for a bachelor's degree in germany though we have graduated here in nigeria. we took a decision within ourselves to start afresh so we decided to go for another programe entirely in germany.

But something came up of recent. He got an information from one of our other friend who is studying in Germany presently that there is a new development. The said friend in Germany told us what we need to do now is to apply for a letter of proficiency in English from the registrar office in our university here in nigeria that it will cover for the ielts exam. He said it will save us cost and that about 5 schools we intend to apply to in Germany accept it. Pls do you have an idea about schools in Germany accepting letter of proficiency in English ?
Because all I have seen so far is people writing the ielts exam. I await your response. Thnks

1. Uni of Applied Sciences Würzburg Schweinfurt
2. Uni of Applied Sciences Umwelt-Birkenfeld
3. Uni of Applied Sciences Ingolstadt
4. Deggendorf Institute of Technology

Great!

I had my interview on the same day you did but I haven't seen any email from them since then, congrats though. I wanted to ask the sort of health insurance you used.

Thanks. I used axa mansard.

WARNING: Long read.

Finally, I have my passport stamped with visa!

Interview date: August 16th

Funded BA: August 27th

AM arrival: September 13th

Passport & Insurance submission: September 14th

Passport arrival:September 19th

Thanks to God Almighty who made everything possible. Also, thanks to the wonderful people on here. Actually the journey started September last year after deciding that I would further my studies at Germany. My first call was to register with Goethe Institut Lagos. Secondly, I followed the German student visa thread on Nairaland. While reading through, I saw that I was on the right path. Advices like "knowing the language is the meal ticket here, use google search to get any answer you want, choose your course wisely..." were so helpful. I wanted a bachelor course that has a combination of management and engineering even though I have a CGPA more than enough for a masters degree. After my search on DAAD, I settled to apply to schools that accepts English proficiency letter, such as:
Fachhochschule Würzburg-Schweinfurt (FHWS) - B.Eng Business & Engineering.

Technische Hochschule Ingolstadt (THI) - B.Eng Engineering & Management (NC).

Hochschule Trier, Umwelt-Birkenfeld - B.Eng Sustainable Business & Technology.

Deggendorf Institute of Technology (DIT) - B.Eng Industrial Engineering/Maintenance and Operation.

I got admission letters from every one of them and settled for FHWS considering important factors.
Here I am today with a visa, German B1 certificate (thanks to my teachers such as Frau Frances , Frau Solomon , Herr Musbaudeen , Herr Tunji , among others), and a course of my choice (not JAMB choice lol).

Advice for newbies: All you need is on this thread. Go back to as far as 2016 thread. Read and read! You could end up becoming an agent. As for those going for another BSc, prepare for test questions in order to ease pressure that may arise during interview. You can ask for previous transcripts on the test questions. They are helpful. Also, dont just see this opportunity as an escape route. You can settle for that dream course you have always wanted. For those with only WAEC/NECO (which is not equivalent to German Abitur), read through what it takes to make it in Studienkolleg. Be truthful to yourself. If you don't have the capabilities to make the B1 Zertifikat and study in German at Studienkolleg, simply go get registered at NOUN to complete a 100 Level course or get admitted to any other university or get an A Level certificate (Note: check the school's requirements), then apply to German universities. German A1 and A2 are fun, not until you get to B1. Topics like Adjektiv Deklination, Verben mit Präpositionen, and B1 grammars are not child's play. Simply read Jigba's diary on here on Nairaland to learn more.

Bis später!

shasha25:
pls can someone apply for a bachelor program with his or her OND result

No. It is either any of these combinations:

1. WAEC/NECO plus BSc/HND/NCE
2. WAEC/NECO plus 100 Level transcript/A Levels (subject restricted admission).

Fustinachichi:
For the last time for those who have OND and Alevels. ..u can get admission to uni for Bachelor's but u have to apply to many many school and be prepared for many rejections but KEEP TRYING...apply to various schools with it and the one that picks u, u praise God....and it helps if u are going for the degree u specialised in, in ur OND/A levels (e.g.If u have A levels in Tourism, go for Bsc in Tourism)...HOW DID I KNOW....Well am a living proof and am leaving for Germany in 2wks!

Then for those that have 2-5yrs gap in their educational history....mtchewww.....I have 11yrs gap....so go and apply and stop making excuses

For those that are complaining they are 30yrs and going for Bachelor's Degree....I am ...just go and apply, u are a baby!

If I'm not mistaking, you used A levels, right?

OND is not enough for BSc admission.

mayorelnino:

Is your course German-taught?
Thanks once again.

Bitte sehr.

Ich gehe eigentlich zur Fachhochschule Würzburg-Schweinfurt. Ich hatte Zulassung für den englischen Kurs „Business & Engineering“. Und du?

Arrived the embassy today at 4:50am.
Mr Paulinus arrived 5:30am.
Then around 6:10am we were checked in for documents arrangement.

Mr Paulinus: Listen to me carefully and adhere to my instructions

Mr Paulinus: originals and photocopies here, here and here.

Mr Paulinus: for academic documents, arrange them from the least to the top. I understand that some of you don't have primary school cert. If WAEC is your least document then place it first.

Then I went into the security checkpoint.

Security: Do you have phones with you.
Security: You are not allowed to bring in phones here. Hand it over to me.
*Gives me a tag and places my phone in a box*

Then I headed for the VOs office. There are four cubicles. No 2, 3 and 4 were the only ones operating at that moment.

It got to my turn and it was cubicle 3.
The pretty woman with dreads.

Me: Good morning.
VO: Good morning. Your documents pls. What are you applying for?

VO: That's all. Pls you would write a short test in 10mins.

Test Questions:

That was it. All glory to God Almighty.

Harryokoli:

Ingolstadt is a no go area. No affordable accommodation.

@Zeus201, I sent you a pm. Pls reply.

wakanda123:
Please when going for legalisation and pre enrollment do we need only one copy each of form A and legalisation from filled completely or more copies and how many passport photographs do we need and the amount meant to be paid, also i just got a reply from the embassy that my appointment is on saturday by 10am but the translator here at abuja is not through translating my documents can i send them a mail for re-scheduling? thanks for your help......

You got an appointment? Please share the format of your email to them. I hope I am not getting it wrong.

Seems appointment date for this year is over. The consulate are not responding to mails.

Have anyone received appointment date for Lagos of recent?

Eldeee:
@ekykool, I thought I sent you a sample of a detailed description which you are expected to modify as it relates to your school. Your transcript will not show how the cgpa is calculated. And they need this description with other relevant details.

Thanks bro. I'm gone past that stage. I have admission letters already from three universities.

Noblemikey:
I think they are asking for the last page of the Transcript (see attached)

Thanks. I've gotten it already.

Sakaslim:
I was talking to a friend on Friday, apparently she has a n uncle that works at the Italian consulate. She said something about paying between 30-40k to book appointment. My guess is you don't need to apply online this time around. Maybe go to the embassy and do your thing just like the times of old.

This is merely a speculation but to get the truth you need to visit the embassy.

Thanks.

Hello guys. What's the latest on booking for appointment for legalization of documents?

toys2seven:
Monday morning. What's your location?

pls send me a pm through my email "myusername@gmail.com". Monday is fine.
