Below is my story:

All the people I did interview with (including yobaby)had gotten their AM except me. I started playing back my interview checking what went wrong.
But to build my faith for every week AM didnt come i went out to purchase items i needed. On the 4th week i got my box and started packing, on the 5th week i paid for my accommodation and bought a few warm cloths. I planned on buying ticket on the 6th week but cos of bible school i couldnt and said i would buy on Saturday.
But as God would have it, while inside bible class during our 1hr break I took my phone to check for ppl that have gotten AM today. Next thing I saw my AM had arrived by 10:42 Am.

First waec -2000 (DOB was wrong, waec said it’s too late to correct cos I collected it n 2017)

First BSc – 2011 (spent 9years in uni 2 years strick 3years I left school)

Second waec – 2017 (I wanted a good grade in English)

Applied to HSMW – Jan 18th,2018 (Heading for a second BSc, I no learn anything the first time)

Admission – Jan 22nd,2018

Funded – June 26th

Interview date – June 28th

AM dropped – August, 09 2018.

Glory be to God. With all the k legs he saw me through (Is 45.1-2).

Big thanks to God the most high, my luvr kenthumpz, my rommie yobaby, my brother Mr incredible, My guy Azeez aka AlphaPen , the grand pa's honourableseyi and the host of others.
Those of u asking about age and second BSc hope u can see from my timeline I am not in my 20’s, and i told my vo i wasn’t coming back until i got to the peak of my education.was also included in my MOL... believe and you would conquer.


Can't believe I wrote this kin long tin
Thanks family

festop2002:
All glory to God.

I am also one of those silent readers for a long time.


Applied July 9.
No interview questions asked apart from what type of visa I was applying for and evidence of BA.
Took a month to be processed.
Picked up my visa today.
The only question I was asked when I went to pickup was when do I want my visa to start from.

Course: MSc. Ag. Econs
Universitat Hohenheim


Thanks to all Nairalanders especially those Dons answering questions and pouring out knowledge for others. Great is your reward.

Obinnalex:
I went to WAEC office to buy scratch card for visa interview but they said they no longer se the plastic card but a small paper which contains the PIN. Please how true is this ? And for those that have gone for the interview. Which type of WAEC card did you use ?

SooCute:
So about yesterday interview...
I met the Paulinus guy. I was the first to arrive the venue so I didn't know where to cue even. So I courageously inquired " Sir please where......" the guy collect me sharp sharp "Oga you can't be seeing me working and you are asking me question..go down there and que " For my mind I be like "What could have cost this man to simply say go down there and cue?"
I just feel the man needs help psychologically.

Frankfurt is the financial capital of Germany and it's about 116km from my school. Germany is the founding member of the European Union in 1958 and the 3rd largest export and importation country in the world. About 90% of German companies belong to the German "mittlestand" Which are small and medium sized enterprises mostly family owned. In 2016, Germany recorded the highest trade surplus of $310b making it the world largest capital exporter of the year. Her major export partners being the European and the US. Namibia was a German Colony from late 18th century.

VO: It is not up to us to decide. As soon as we clear you here we forward your documents to the foreign office over there. It takes us about a week to do that. The international office will decide how fast you get a response.
Me: Have a nice day Ma.



I didn't check time but the interview didn't feel like one. I read like someone looking for lecturer work because i had more than enough time to prepare coupled with different interview reports I got here. I was scared not leave any stone unturned. Read GMATS Cox I am going for engineering plus I already did Mechanical Engr here so I gat no excuse to fail their maths test if e show.
Read virtually everything readable with facts and figures! Rivers. Political parties, their colours and number of registered voters. Busiest airports in Germany. My states facts and figures. I even studied about 12 major companies in my state and what they are into. Studied the ones trekkable from my school (about 6 of them) cos I was waiting for "Tell me facts about the city you are going...blablabla.

Tips: Package facts closely related to the course you are going for. (I talked about business and entrepreneurship more because my course is Business and Engineering) E dey make them believe you.
Also talk about facts about the state you are going....when they ask you what you know about Germany.

In all....I was so relaxed. I never felt I was being interviewed. I guess that helped me recall a whole lot I read. #Grace.

I arrived at Island 01/08 against my appointment on 02/08 and settled down in a hotel " *New World Inn*". Where I never slept throughout the night for the fear of village people fanning me till I wake up by weekend! It was nice with interior wallpaper and steady light. Thanks to @Alphapen Aka Musqit Azeez and Oga Shegun aka Baba for the boys! For taking the pain to get me settled after my long-picky hotel search. Wahlahi good people dey nairaland. I mean people wey pass you for level yet them humble to the core!
If necessary...I will add few more facts about Germany so here can be a hub.

Shocker: Them know about this dollarsewuosewaland (I know why I typed it so) please be careful what you post. The VO said " I have been interviewing people for years and I know you people go-to NNNNLLLL and cram and cram. So it made me drift from the usuall answers and went to different trajectory. But if you no read how you wan take do?
Its better to do your part well enough then hope for Grace than the opposite.

God bless Us all and grant our good wishes. Amen!

Mamtobs:
That information is not accurate.

You have to staple your passport photograph and that of the head of the family in your house. (It can be your dad). and yes you can do it in a state high court.

The high court will charge you 500 naira but they will not stamp it if your dad is not with you (that's what happened to me. My dad had to follow me there the next day). but if you do not want to stress yourself, do it with notary public. there are people all over the high court who keep screaming ''Affidavit'' you can do it with them but keep in mind that it is 500 naira. Those guys are 419 people and they like to cheat those that are ignorant. and make sure that both passport photographs are stamped!

Finally, it has to be typed!

All the best

Krusty:
Guys please I need advice.
I would like to travel abroad in the near future to further my education but first, I'll like to equip myself with some relevant skills.
I stumbled on NIIT some time ago and I decided to do a digital course with them. However, I'm confused on which one to go for.
I'm torn between Web development and Java programming.
Guys, which of the aforementioned programs do you think will be more lucrative and relevant abroad?
Your opinions are highly needed.

kendoschurrle:
Please another question.. As we all know, most of us cant easily afford the blocked account and may have to use our entire savings to pay for that one year. This means that the next year will be funded by either what you are able to save up from the hours of work allowed in Germany or if you have people that can send you money. Now my question please:

1) Is the "120 days of full time work" allowed enough to fund the second year of blocked account?
2) I read that they do not even allow using online work to supplement your income..Do this mean you can't do freelance work or trade binary options or forex?
3) What other options do people that make it to Germany have for coping with this second year especially as we all know that getting that part time job isnt easy?

Evaowokotomo:
Is there anyone here enrolled in a bachelor program in Germany or just got an admission. I need some advice please. My email address is mijnmooiefoto@gmail.com
I will really appreciate any assistance as I am in a dilemma right now. Please contact me or reply here

Enephkay:
Okay today is the first day I will write my own long note because I have stole a lot from here. I got my Angela Mail (AM) as I read it to be a name a guy just formed and I believe that is where the AM comes from because looking at the mail I don’t see any approval anywhere for the mail to be called Approval Mail but anyway Angela Mail or Approval Mail all na AM

Well I did not write my interview questions because I want that AM first and I actually had my interview on the 26th of June so all this dreams of I want will travel out is here oo na wa God is wonderful.

Got that Mail 11:13am 23 July, brother see joy. I didn’t even bother asking about my school here or my state or life after because my own na say Naija matter don tire me and weytin make me survive here I no no where I no fit survive.

My interview questions was same as others and only thing the lady asked that earlier I never came across was “what is German best food?” Me I just said Pork oo and she nodded. The interview was a blast because of you guys transcripts so I say thanks. I’m normally tensed during stuffs like that but I forgot to get tensed that day because everything was so fast haha and even the Paulinus nairalanders are condemning, I see nothing wrong with that guy if you have your documents arranged and well organized

Well I checked my documents numerous times before that interview because I no wan hear say them shoot bird the mama fly. Just take out original, lap it with the two photocopies and use that attach pin to hold it. Do the same for the rest of the documents then you have nothing to worry. So leave Paulinus if he is not like that he will have headache everyday because I have worked in such situation where people don’t ever want to get things right no matter how you explain to them.

I will upload the comprehensive questions I carved out for myself to keep me balance and I practiced for 4months too so I guess this AM is my accolade.

My school is University of Würzburg and I don’t think I read anybody going there but like I said I no care me because person na person wey belle dey pain na him know how e dey do am... Everybody with different experiences and goals and I just don’t want someone to give me another thought with his or her bad experience in the city or state or even school. Every mallam with him kettle. I applied to just that school alone and I got admitted for summer but it came late and I deferred the admission. What am I even saying, I don’t even know if I even applied all I know is that February I got a mail from the head of department telling me I’m considered to apply for summer that I’m admitted for both summer and winter Incase I can’t make it for summer that I should contact the international office. Na from there oo so i got admitted before I even sent my documents looks so fake but I did research about the school no be small then I realize na so God want am.

I read German girls are hard are this one are that one but still I’m here in Nigeria and I have dated 3 online before now. So how hard can they be? So brother do your thing first thing first just comot for this hole wey we dey then you go see say it is a different game out there.

I hope I’m able to convince you and not to confuse you with the few nonsense I have said that you shouldn’t be weighed down because of people’s experiences.

My uncle is in Luxembourg and the man say Europe no make sense and still him never pack him load come back Naija mtchew looking for people to deceive not me.
Well Let me just stop here

NathyBongos:
Hey bro I am actually applying for this south south scholarship stuff, if I am lucky they would be fully responsible taking care of all expenses including basic allowance....if you are from any part of the south south write me I would give you the portal to apply to with the necessary document it closes on Friday. Cheers

Sakasitay:
I'm content with the only school which gave me admission. Thank God.
They saved me a lot of time - they have no idea.

Palla:
yes no enrollment extension

Dammy112:
You need to learn how to write good English with grammatical errors. You are all the same posting fake pieces of information on NL. How many of you actually apply that makes you think you can advise people on NL, Stop spreading Lies.
Anyone asking on NL should always doublecheck about the issue personally.

Dammy112:
LOOOOOL...Here they go again. Lets see who replies

Omosikiru1992:
NIPOST service has improved if you send through the general post office it will be delivered within 8-15 days the last time I sent something to Germany it got there within 8days....Note try to make use of there office in Airport or The marina office on island they charge 1050 for ordinary post while registered is 2000+ for around 100gram of what you are sending.

Hello gurus,
Please I need a good advice, I got my admission letter from my school last week 29/06/2018 and I applied for my appointment same week, my school deadline for enrollment is 19 sep 2018 which means I need to be in Germany lately 1st sep. But to my surprise the appointment date the embassy gave to me was 8.10.2018 that is after the enrollment deadline of my school and ofcus u guys know that after the appointment, it still takes noting less than 4-6 weeks before ur visa comes out.

I have tried everything I could to get an earlier date all to no aveil, I contacted the school and they said the can only spear me one month which !means I will still carry some courses over.
Even at that, with this appointment date it is very obvious that my visa will not b ready until November all so. And my school resumes September.

Please what is your advice. Or solution plsss

Dammy112:
Can I open blocked account before I receive my admission letter from The university I applied to?
And what is the process for applying to open blocked account?
The finitiba account website was asking for resumption date and school admitted to.
Thank you

chrisb2r200:
Has he funded ...and when did he?
Besides which city is he heading to? Cos all these plays a role..

Mamtobs:
Please get another one. You can do this at the high court. Remember that it has to be deposed to by the head of the family. Attach your passport photograph and your dad/mom picture too. Make sure that both pictures gets stamped

manuel04:
I think Deutsche bank is 8800, that's 8640 + 150 euro service charge,
Meanwhile if I may ask how much did u end up paying?

henriq2:
Yes. It's not an issue for people interviewing before August

henriq2:
Those of you that got admitted to HSHL can reach out to me.

There's a challenge I'm foreseeing

Palla:
