No, I have not been booked for a language course. I plan to arrive Germany and book a language course in my school since I’m PhD.
My resumption is Jan 6 so I want to be sure before I submit application of their is possibility of getting AD soonest.
Thanks


kosky:


Were you booked for a language course prior to the start of your program?

I am also a DAAD scholar and i got an appointment date less than 12 hours after applying but that was in May. I suggest you simply apply for the appointment and tick that you have a scholarship and see what happens.

@sassy, so no dates have been giving for people to come for interview ? Is their any priority for PhD with German award letter to get date before November ending if I apply now ?

Thank you for your reply.
I am applying for a PhD and I have with me an acceptance letter which stands like an admission letter. PhD as any start date but I would prefer starting January. With my DAAD letter, I can get an invitation letter from my prof for Jan date to compliment my acceptance letter but I want to be sure how long it takes to get a visa interview date. I have read that DAAD award gives one upper hand and after interview it takes just 2 weeks to get the visa. It won’t sound well if I ask my supervisor to write another invitation letter from me having realized I can’t make the previous date I pick.
Gurus in the house, any advice. And is visa interview still rolling out ? All of my document are ready, passport expires 2023 or so



Thegamingorca:



It can range from a week to 3months and sometimes never. Things arent exactly rosy in this waka...and with the recent dishonourable discharge of embassy staff, be prepared to wait for even longer periods.

However if your scholarship is legit aka "the real deal" this might just be a cake walk for you, as it's a criteria to apply under the restricted category A student visa.

What are you planning to apply for?
Do you have any admission to study in any German school yet?
Will your passport expire soon?
These and more are factors you need to double check and triple check.

How many weeks does it take to get an interview date ? I will appreciate if u can share me a likely weeks it takes. This information will enable me to prepare and plan well. Also, do you think with DAAD letter, I did be consider for it ? And is there any possibility of making it by January? Thanks as I await your reply

You have to apply to get interviewed.

Truth be told and my advice to you next time is to try and be brief when asking questions. It is better to have replies as long as this than questions.
Now my advice or suggestion is
1. You can only write this on SOP during u I eraity application
2. Try convince your HOD to please issue you a letter that you are almost done with your studies as you only have your thesis awaiting completion.
3. Tell him/her to please issue something like a statement of results issued by department not PG school with research still awaiting. Convince the HOD as they don’t do such with much pleading from ur supervisor. You juice it by saying you have am awaiting PhD position etc.



AkeemTy:
Good Day Folks, I will be glad if anyone has an idea on this or if you have faced similar situation before and the things you did. I have a BSc (ED) in Health Education second class lower division and currently pursuing an MPH in Health Policy and Management at the University of Ibadan. I have completed my coursework and just have my project to complete in a few months time. I am applying to do another master degree in Canada at Mcmaster University (MSc eHealth). I have gone through the requirements and know exactly what to do. Though I didn't meet up with the minimum academic grade in my undergraduate which is B+ on the Canadian grading system, the programme coordinator encouraged me to apply as they give consideration to those who don't meet the minimum grade but one must put up a strong application. Now the only chance I got to put up a strong application with my statement of interest and research interest is to show progress made so far in my MPH programme at the University of Ibadan. The Health Policy and Management department has a strict policy of not giving a statement of courses and grades gotten so far to proof as part of my application to Mcmaster as one is yet to complete the MPH programme. What is the possible way I can prove to the admission department at Mcmaster that I am almost rounding up the MPH programme as they equally allow prospective candidates apply to their programmes as long as you are at the final stage of almost rounding up on your previous degree?

With your job here at Nigeria, you can apply for a second Masters MENG as phd doesn’t come easily (supervisor issues). While go for a Bsc when you have completed a second degree. With second masters you can write that you intend to learn about new use of machines (technology) to make u more useful in ur work (LOE).
Best of luck

Yes, medicals such as X-rays are analyzed at Kenya and IOM gets such results a day or tomorrow after sending them so Q-life as to be on queue for days to get such results. Immediately you drop blood, results is already gone been generated before the close of the day and all they have to wait for is the X-ray which after getting less 24hrs they upload it to cic.


hiambenson:
You're right. QLife currently takes 8-10 days and the doctor I met when I did my medicals said it's an instruction from CIC. I giggled for a few and asked him why didn't they give IOM the same instruction but he had no answer to my question. Lol


Travel / Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 16 by Ibitowaoa: 9:54am On Jul 26, 2019
No sympathy in admission is either u meet requirements or you have a strong SOP even with low CGPA.

I read about a 2.2 talking about admission at Canada or Germany.
For those that have a low CGPA I will advice you write a very strong SOP as to why you want to study the course and it would better you. A strong motivating letter can make you get admission even if it’s Germany or anywhere. But remember, meets minimum requirements.

Add or don’t add that doesn’t stop them from not giving you admission if you merit and meet requirements but if you don’t it’s a No No No

If Application and still yet to hear from them, my advice is that you pray and still wait on their decision. Well as I can say maybe you’ve been considered.

But if passport submission and no return, I have no explanation
