the best i can say, is use through an agency. There is an agency thats does that and they will give you all necessary documents you need just as i was given too, if you go directly you will be having problems with their jandammarine and police and more stuff like that just because you are a foreigner and dont have a required documents, school id card wont help you for security if thats what you think, so to save yourself the stress go through an agency and i recommend Precious Education, their website is www.preciouseducation.org not just republic of benin, they also process admissions for students who wants to study in ghana, south africa, togo, kenya and even outside afica. thats all i can give you. nothing else. hope this will help
