Germany is a top destination for studies coz of many reasons which include zero tuition fees.
In this video, myself and my friend gave some light of how to secure study visa easily from Nigeria and hints about some scholarships that are not widely known by people.
Watch, like and share with friends who are planning for international studies in Germany. Below is the link.

AsikoTravels:
Did you confirm if a new Benin republic resident can apply for visa through their embassy. Or they must have spent at least 6 months in the country before applying.

In their requirements, the permit should have been issued more than the last 6 months of the interview.

tosynoyl:
Is COVID 19 test required at Cotonou if one is travelling out of the country through Cotonou Airport?

Someone should pls answer this

Mantoso:
Please house, is there anyone here living in Duisburg, Dusseldorf or Essen?

I will be in Germany by November. Can you receive me for couple of weeks before I get myself settled.

Thanks

Have you gotten an appointment yet?

Somatohadidas1:
Check N26.Hope you already have an address in Germany? (Accommodation offer)

Thanks

Hello everyone. Pls is it possible to get the IBAN number when I open an account with Fintiba?
I need a German account, because the health insurance company needs my IBAN.
N.B: I'm not going to block any money.

Or do anyone know how I can open a German account online? I need the IBAN number asap.

dennison4luv:
1. Prepaid envelope; you can get it in any FedEx or DHL, but try and use DHL because it's a Germany company and you are going to Germany embassy: note its proper to buy the prepaid envelope 2 days or a day to the interview date.
2 for the health insurance contact TK for your health insurance exemption certificate after you enrolled with mawista or care concept.
3. Any one can serve, whether you download and fill or you fill it before downloading. What matters is to fill it correctly

Pls, why did you say the prepaid envelope should be bought two days to the interview? What if someone has bought it before the cancellation of appointment?

Fatalveli:
??

I think no one is sure about it. You may book now.

Rilwan3628:
You can use google. Type fintiba account then it takes you to their website to open account online with them..

I think it's only for blocked account.
I need to open an account which is not block

OtunbaBlack:
Guys international flight resumes on the 29th I think this a good news and it probably means the embassy would open in September definitely....

Stiflersammy:
I am going to VI tomorrow, I might enter the embassy that's if they will allow me to enter though, I will male my enquiry and get back tk you guys.

God bless you bro.

Light2020:
I think the embassy is confused though, I called them this morning and what I was told was that there is a waiting listing for student visa’s but the lady on the phone couldn’t direct me on how to access the waiting list, she said I should check the embassy throughly.

I called now. She told me to wait till international flight opens.

Daytona21:
Please does the embassy have a mail to send your documents?? Especially to show that you have a letter of presence.

Some of us have sent it to them through mail.. I sent mine more than a week now, with no reply..
I'll advice you just fill the contact form, maybe they will reply us this week.

Xeeex:
Please I need the formula to convert my cgpa to German cgpa

Search google

Hannania:
Hello, just to be clear about the class of degree. Does the 1.)indicated in CAT A means 1.0 to 1.99? ( which 2.1 folks have a chance) or just first class.

First Class

Nzesinachi1:
Hello good people of Nairaland. Firstly, I would like to thank each and everyone of us here for our relentless efforts and togetherness. We have really got our backs here, and that is a good thing.
Honestly, who no go no go believe. This waka no be wetin person dey carry pikin for back dey run, or wetin person go dey cry dey call em mama name. It is tiring, I swear, it is hard, but I prophesy that we will all get there. We have tried our best so that everything that happened during this period shall be to our favor in Jesus name/insha Allah.

*Please i need to be put through on this* I got admission on the 7th of June and booked appointment on the 8th.., later on the 15th of July, I got an email with an attachment (letter of presence) from my school. I sent a message to the German Consular, yesterday, through the platform of exception kini ko Kini ko. My own issue is that I don't know if I should cancel and rebook appointment or leave it but I have been calling the embassy to no avail.

No one has any clue at the moment. Until someone speaks with the embassy.. I'm trying to call them too..
I hope someone on this platform could successfully speak with them and come here to give us feedback

Fatalveli:
Hello. I just got an AL from Uni Potsdam. However, the corresponding name and address on the letter is totally wrong.

One mattew korte from ohio' s name was on the letter and it was addressed to my email. I'm confused please.

What step can I take?

Please treat as urgent.

Send an email to the school.

Light2020:
Guys, check the embassy website, they are now operating

Good news

clintonsparkz:
If you talking to someone inexperienced certainly not me, been following this thread for like a 2 years now even though I started application just winter semester, you just say things without seeing different factors...

1. Not all schools fully undergo solely online classes this winter schools are going hybrid.
2. Not all schools allow enrollment by proxy some schools require u are there physically.
3. Cat B issue, I have some guys been enrolled and doing online since last year yet no date for interview. Ask summer applicant's
4, You do online classes later physical exams or test and presentations are needed what will you do?.

Yes online lectures and enrollment will suffice for those whose courses are fully online and those that are hybrid your presence must be needed sometime. The question is when will AD be given? will they give all categories AD?

If na British embassy, you will say everyone will get date, but I know what I have been seeing lately in this thread...I am praying things get better.

I'm with you brother. You're very right..

Somatohadidas1:
@Ifwal, chat me up

I've replied your mail since yesterday.

IOladiplenty:
For those that had appointment dates prior to the lock down and later got a cancellation mail from the embassy, the second paragraph of that cancellation mail read thus:

"As soon as the travel restrictions are lifted you will get a new appointment from the Consulate General. Therefore kindly refrain from appointment request as well as status enquiries."

1. As soon as the travel restrictions are lifted. Up until now, the travel restrictions are yet to be lifted!.

2. Therefore kindly refrain from appointment request as well as status enquiries!.

I hope this clears some doubts on here about new appointment dates given by the embassy.

I just spoke with the consulate office, the lady said Student Visa application is on hold at the moment. I told her some people claimed to have received appointment, she said she doesn't know anything about it.. All she know is that the section is still closed.
So, you guys claiming you received AD, kindly send us screenshots oo.

Thereality19:
They recently booked for appointment using the mail booking . I didn’t ask for screenshot as i am not a scholarship student and even if they were been untruthful, i see no reason why they will be informing me about it .

These whole thing is getting on my nerves

Pls calm down Sir/Ma,
You asking them is helping many of us here who really depend on such evidences. I'm also a scholarship holder, I had an appointment earlier and when the embassy cancelled it, they promised to send a new date which hasn't been sent.
That's why I need to know if your friend re-booked or just booked for the first time..
Pls and pls, your enquiries will help alot of us.. Don't be offended

Thereality19:
I think it is exclusively for scholarship applicants.
I have seen another person claiming they got appointment through mail booking

Pls, kindly help us get a screenshot. We need to also know if the person re-booked.
If you can't get the screenshot, help us ask the date scheduled for the appointment.

uchezdedon:
Have you recently contacted the embassy about your cancelled appointment.?
My sister's own was cancelled too.

No, but someone did last week and was told to check back when international flights open.

Stiflersammy:
Which other appointment email?
Let us see it

Compare it with this one.
Below is my appointment I got in March

Ifwal:
Clinton!
It seems to be real. The same error was in my former appointment mail..
The only difference is that dot.. But other errors you pointed to are not irregularities.
But why did they leave we with cancelled appointment and give appointments to new people?
They promised to give us new date

Pls who has any info about the winSim stuff.. We need to be sure the message is real..

clintonsparkz:
A scholarship student? this are some irregularities in the mail...aside the dot, something was cleared and was changed to list A in the first circle, why is the Consulate spelt as CO while others are Co...let's even forget the winsim cause I don't know what that is, I am nor doubting but let's not just jump into conclusion about this.

Clinton!

ghettonews:
What do u mean differ my admission, I don't understand that, can I ask the sch to change the course of study to the one that requires my presence

You're very funny!
You want to tell the school to change your course of study to one that requires your presence.. Lol!
Are you really passionate about the course you're going for or you're just looking for a means to get to Deutschland?
Anyways, deferment means you waiting for next winter 2021 to start your program.. It's a good option if your school can permit such and if you can wait..

Nzesinachi1:
Hello fellow prospects, I have an AL already, so last week I was sent another PDF by the school( Bayreuth) stating that I should present it to the German embassy in my country, that my admission is a person to person studies and not online as allowed for the summer session students. I can't really quote them word to word.

Please, did anyone else receive such, and how do I go about it?

Thanks!

You're to take the letter along when going for interview.
Just pray you get an appointment..

ghettonews:
And I only asked a question sir?

Thanks to your rude reply.

Which sch are u even going to?

Did you mean rude?
Maybe you should check your posts again.. And also ask yourself if "bragging" (as said in your comment) isn't rude!
