@ dolpaz , thanks for the advice. However my fear is that the work experience i got is totally not related to my field of study, like imaging i studied computer science/engineering but worked at government ministry not even relating to IT, also worked at some schools as teacher. Basically not a single steady job relating to information technology since graduation. But what do you think if to say i enrol my self in those kind of three or six month software or telecoms trainings here in nija, finish with good grades, then maybe attend some good technology conferences still here in nija, that will definitely improve my cv, but do you think if i combine that improved cv with a good statement of purpose, will that improve my chances of getting the masters admission in the courses you recommended? Cuz going for another four year undergrad i believe is too much time waste. What do you think
You are still a Nigerian, find a company that can give you the type of letter you need for your application but make sure you know them and their field well.
If there is anyone who can give you Managerial role attestation better. But don't claim what you can not defend, just in case.... tongue 8 kiss if your grade is not high enough work experience helps so much because German education is industry focused than just theory and talks. If you can get a professor to write an outstanding reference letter about you, it might help also.
Or better state your case as it is and start fasting and prayers, ��

You people should stop giving fake advise that you read about somewhere.I did not get it done yesterday, I just wanted to have an idea of how much it costs and for how much.
Pls people on NL should ONLY be giving confirmed information and NOT something that was stated on a website. This is Nigeria...
If I doubt you, I already doubt you for saying its 10# per page and what concerns CBN with money being paid for certification at a High Court.
I will be going back there later today and Will give better information.
That means you have not heard of TSA since Buhari government, if you claim nothing concerns CBN with Federal high court payment.
It is your case not mine. I have done mine at the rate I told you.
Sorry for responding to your questions it won't repeat.

Some people also waste money on Visa agents after getting admission letter instead of applying direct to the embassy. So how one chose to tackle his challenge is personal but this group is for best practices.

How far boss. How long after the received your application did you hear from them
I think 3 weeks for material physics department, you know each department handle there own admission in most schools.

@dailydollar. I know what you mean but my rejection letter for not certification is my evidence. Possibly is department variable.
Any way, I will try again.

I was at Ikeja High court today and was told its 500 naira per copy but I hassled it down to 350#, I was thinking someone on here said its done 10naira per copy. Please verify. If You have anyone in mind who does it, I will gladly appreciate it. I just want to make sure its the right certification. Lady at embassy did not certify the transcripts saying the original copy(students copy) did not have the stamp on it. She just certified other documents and did not certify the transcripts.
Did you pay with POS or paid Cash. The right procedure is to pay with POS direct into CBN account after the Registrar have billed you.
We are Nigerians, I understand people create office where there is non. The payment since 2015 is by POS or bank teller. They make it difficult for you to meet the registrar because they are like sharks. The official price is still N10 per page. If you doubt me try another state or federal high court.
Did they keep each copy of the documents for their own filling. That is another way to know if the guy followed due process or just stamped it off record.

Another fast way to certification of document is to meet notary public lawyers in their offices across states.
Though they charge higher than the courts, N500 per document but it is recognised by many international body or certify at the ministry of education if it is only academic certificates.
Embassy certification is preferred above all but too hard for people living outside Lagos and Abuja

Go to Ikeja High court, just after the Ikeja bridge, it's a very popular place. There are several hustlers outside of the court that will do it for you at a reasonable price. I did mine there.
Please stop patronizing hustlers and tauts, try to meet with the registrar, the official price is #10 naira per page. Why risk working with tauts. This is why some German schools now insists on German embassy certification because most Nigeria documents can not be verified if they write back to the institutions that certified it. FAU is strict on certification at embassy with few other schools

I am not currently studying but will join my peeps this Summer 2018. Concerning scholarship any school that accept English proficiency can also Grant you scholarship with it, unless the scholarship program is not regulated by their own board.

Thank you sir, I have a letter of English proficiency from my school, just Want to know if writing TOEFL will increase my chances of getting a scholarship because U.S schools consider tests like this to award scholarship. Are u currently studying in Germany sir?

Please every school in Germany is better than Nigeria and Africa schools.
You need to get a letter of English proficiency from your last School. It will attest that all your former study is in English language.
Scholarship depends on the qualification of other applicants who may need the scholarship.

Yes, you can complete A1 in three months. no weekend classes at the Goethe Institut, You'll find elsewhere I'm sure. I'll see if I can help, but I'm still learning too
You can start learning the basics ie A1 and A2 from online sources like YouTube tutors or Duolingo App. This may not make you perfect but you will learn all necessary words, phrase and expressions at your own pace. Also when you get to Germany, I learnt that some Universities offer free German course to international students especially in winter semester.

Sorry guys my suggestions is always focused on how to minimize cost and achieve the same outcome. So accept me the way I am.

Don't worry if you have your first school leaving certificate, it can serve. The main purpose is to use such documents to verify your acclaimed age.

What is the difference between notary and certified documents. I just left high court at igbosere Lagos they said certification is 1k per document, I ran
Where can I do it cheap in Lagos
You must have met the wrong person at the federal high court. You should ask for the Registrars office. Certification is 10 naira per page in Nigeria high court and you are supposed to pay with POS not Cash.
Unless they intentionally removed the pos to have opportunity to dupe people. Notary lawyers are private firms and their charge is 500 naira per page.

Good afternoon guys am bout to book my ticket, someone was saying I should book return ticket.. I'm joining my wife in Germany....

If your Visa did not limit your stay there is no point booking for a return ticket now. Unless you have plan to visit Nigeria soon.
Students normally use one way visa because you are sure to stay more than a year with out coming back.

work with what you have until the new certificate is ready or try going to meet with the senate officer incharge of such matters to help fast track it. i believe change of name affidavit will be handy this time. Such mixed up arise from your inconsistency in pattern of writing your names from admission application to registration. angry

The easiest is the one you have problems with. Just put your passport on the table and snapp the data page. Better you use a scanning app like Cam scanner, it will come up clean.

As you said earlier you need to beat the November deadline so I think you did the right thing by using fast track but know it that FedEx smiley is faster than DHL. You may be surprised that DHL may not deliver in less than 10days.
I used the Nipost office at Enugu subway train station off Ogui road. The price is N300. I did not register it for tracking just normal Post.
Maybe they are now using the Enugu Airport to deliver their Mail but I heard that if you use Nipost at murtala Mohammed airport Lagos it can be delivered in 15days or less.

Please you are not supposed to pay cash at the federal high court office use your ATM or ask for the remitter account print out so you can pay at the Bank.
Remember if you must pay the right amount be early to their office. Remitter pos do have network issues from 12 noon.
Most of my certification at Enugu federal high court cost my N300 @ #10 per page and I paid with POS.
Anyway Nigeria corruption do make them request for more some times and ask for cash.
