So i wrote the e-mail below to the German federal foreign office and got this response:

Dear Sir/Madam,

Thank you for your e-mail. Please be informed that the German Consulate General is booked out until October 10th 2017. Due to the fact that the processing time of a student visa takes up between 5 and 6 weeks, students will not be able to meet up with the enrolment deadlines at their respective universities. We deeply regret not being able to grant appointments to all prospective students. However, we would like to point out that students who cannot be granted an appointment for the winter semester 2017/2018 are welcome to contact the Consulate again in November or December concerning available appointments for the summer semester 2018 if they can provide a valid admission letter.

Sincerely yours,

b.o.

I believe the message was forwarded to the Lagos embassy for a response because it was replied from Walter Carrington address of the Embassy in Nigeria.
I am sincerely tired and don't know what else to do.
Elders in the house, please has this ever happened? and if it has, was there any solution?

I got frustrated with the Winter semester 2017/2018 embassy booked out notice and decided to send a message to the German federal foreign office https://www.auswaertiges-amt.de/EN/Service/Contact/contact_node.html?https=1
Please if you are affected, kindly send them a message, let us see if there is a solution to this heartbreak
God bless us all!


Dear Sir/Ma,
I am writing to make an official complaint regarding the issue faced by prospective students from Nigeria who are willing and have an admission to study in Germany during the Winter 2017/2018 semester.
The German embassy (Lagos) in Nigeria has put up a notice that they have been booked out for the winter semester 2017/2018. This has put such students including myself in a state of shock, the emotional trauma alone cannot be overemphasized. This is because the process of getting an admission is not only time consuming not to talk of the financial implication.
This notice by the German embassy in Lagos is not only distasteful but totally inconsiderate.
If student visa appointment in the the German Embassy in Lagos is booked out, this means other forms of visa appointments are not booked out, which in turn depicts that people traveling for other reasons such as holidays can get appointments but students who will impact their society and the world at large cannot get one?
Also, there is a German Embassy in Abuja, which can equally attend to students who are looking to book an appointment since the embassy in Lagos is suddenly booked out.

I'll implore you to use your good office to look into this situation. I look forward to your response and most importantly a timely solution to this point in question.

Thank you.

Got to the embassy gate around 5:58 am " the one that demarcates American and German Embassy" come see crowd for there "American embassy people reach like dem wan go do crusade"
Got to German consulate by 6:01 am. Had to greet those on queue "they are visit visa" (E no concern).
Paulinus appeared around 6:09 am and started singing morning devotion songs from his android phone. The guy is just too principled and bit unethical "he told one OLD woman to sit behind even as there was no space for her to pass to go and sit behind as those in front were even willing to go back because of her age" be wary of him.
He called on student visa applicants "I was the only one on ground, so he called on me demanding for my appointment letter and passport"
We started sorting documents and on the long run asked of my baptism or vassination card, I told him I don't have and he said why? I told him I'm a Muslim and he said he's not talking about religion here that even Muslims have "with his ugly fair face". He started reasoning others applicants issue. He told me authoritatively that if any documents are missing and was told to go bring them, he wouldn't let me in anymore.
Successfully, I crossed his shackles constructed route.
Inside the security phase those guys were forming gods as if they are the one to gv me visa. Them too do like boss, I Register my name and passed through.
I was directed to go through the green line which I did. Entered the office and was shivering because of the cold and had to move back Cos of the A/C, very very cold.
I was called in by the VO "one small black Nigerian" (very gorgeous though but pulls in commanding character, from her charismatic self)
She started by
Ur documents, Ur original Certificates, Ur Visa fee, Ur courier envelope "thought I forgot that, she gave a command that I should go get it within 3 minutes" while the thing dey my documents.

I am very sure ''The German Embassy'' have SPIES in here.

So I am Directing this message to The German Embassy Nigeria spy(ies) (yes you).

I think it's high time "The German Embassy Lagos" come out with an Apology Letter which should also contain an Explicit Reason why they can't

refer Students to the The German Embassy Abuja when they barely or hardly receive VISA Applicants there in ABJ.

What is there Justification for allocating the whole "German Embassy in Abuja" to Politicians, Diplomats, and SSS.

This can never happen in Europe, USA or in the developed world.

Can't they attend to Students @ the The German Embassy Abuja and also attend to those Greedy politicians (Giving them Priority)?

Why must student suffer for all their unreasonable policies.

This is just Unacceptable.

dooch:
I also applied for the same course and my application was accepted. I included my waec results, university transcript, university certificate, and English language proficiency from my university. Maybe you didn't have one of this document and that could explain the reason for the rejection.

Jigba:
Yes I did

I don't know why it hurts a lot when we bite our tongue accidentally. But It doesn't hurt when we bite it intentionally. The thing I can't understand is why are you biting your tongue now...�������

SleekAB:
But of course.... But still can't read the messages. Don't know why. You can reach me at sleekab@yahoo.co.uk. That should work.

SleekAB:
Believe me I've tried to access the messages, I still can't. Don't know why... All I keep getting is messages like this...

Hello sleekab,

gabi101 would like to send you an email message, but since you're not connected, you'll need to contact gabi101 by replying this email.

SleekAB:
Oya big big congratulations to you! More power to thy elbow and God speed.

I was just wondering how come cos I applied for BA International Management and I'm told the selection conclusion will be after the deadline of 15th July.

Congrats again! But I've decided to go to HS Rhein-Waal. In fact I don dey find accommodation already.

honourableseyi:
If I were you, I would have used this either print out or not; that doesn't make it a fake result . Shalom

honourableseyi:
Which course did you apply to? International business? Uni-assist doesn't need your certified document to verify your rheinwaal application though. But if the course is international business and social sciences, then I might be able to tell you why. Shalom

GermanDreamer:
what does your uni-assist online account status says on the schools you applied?

dobeespen:
I think they require a credit in a natural science subject and the only science subject of have here is biology, and you got below a credit. Do you have NECO as well? I hear you can combine results.

Ramani237:
Nope am in Cameroon (waiting for ma admission Letter IJN) Uni Assist informed me abt 10 days ago that ma application has been forwarded..

Ramani237:
Has your deadline passed?
Maybe they just forwarded after verifying them then sent it now to Rhein Waal for the rest of the job?
If your deadline has not passed the chill..thesame way u were notified earlier on when your documents arrived so to u will be Notified once more when your documents arrive(and am sure they will be forwarded too directly)
Asehe but weti with wuna Naija Universities dem eh..y do they kip disturbing u guys with the transcript issue..y cant they just hand it ova to you guys..(merde..c'est vraiment terrible)

dobeespen:
Take deep breaths, calm down, and write this again. I don't understand anything you're saying.
