I laughed as I read ur post..it's really crazy that u r concerned with someone who doesn't write good English..does the world need fluency in English..they care more on who can deliver. The guy is my friend..he got admission where i wasn't able to get..he was suppose to come to magdeburg with me... He is intelligent and he is delivering and u r concerned about his grammar.. he was only trying to help ..pls he is not a scam ..he is even on scholarship right now..u simply don't understand him.. nxt time before u talk.try to understand someone...it's not easy to make a ist class in chemical engineering...i read chemical engineering too but i didnt make ist class ..if u think ur grammar can make a ist class in chemical engineering..go and try it.. he has time to be replying u guys.. the course wey I dey do self.i neva even read half of the pages and exams are January...

p.s ..am not insulting u ..am only saying the fact..i dnt even want to reply comment on this before but u guys have really made a mocked of him..

Your command of English language is not that good. Don’t get me wrong, you probably write or even speak better than most of us, okay? But what I’m saying is - Your under graduate course was taught in English, you wrote your project, publications and other papers in English, and you defended in English……And you made a first class? With the way you speak and write English? That’s something really strange…..I’m sorry bro. I also have a funny feeling about this post. This is not to say that you’re fraudulent or anything. It just smells a little bit funny. Thanks for wanting to help….But I suppose everybody on here know the drill…….Don’t pay for anything you cannot see, feel, or touch! See the accommodation with your korokoro eyes, find out about its genuinity before parting with your hard earned money.

Sorry bro I just have to get this off my chest. However, we can be very good friends. At least you’ll teach me how to make a first class. I’ve always dreamt about it, but never achieved it. Its not too late - I want to make a distinction in my MA program, so I hope you’d be willing enough to show me a few tricks. I know UP. I wrote LSAT at Witwatersrand with a couple of bright lads from UP. It’s a cool Uni

Good morning.

So u finally came out ..I thankGod for ur visa to Stuttgart bro...we started the journey to magdeburg but u left only me for magdeburg .so dat I will wound myself with book.
my people it's hasn't been easy..I pity some people that apply to random course just to enter Germany..if u dnt hv idea of the course at in Nigeria...i wonder how u will cope with the voluminous work load here..though I went to a good school in Nigeria(FUTO)..the chemical engineering in FUTO suffered me and I thought they were being unfair but I'm seeing the benefits here my brethren... for applicants 2016..just apply to a course that u have a background in.thats my advice

Hello to everyone,

I'm not new here, but this forum help me a lot and through this forum I meet a good friend here with who I'm in contact with every day in Germany.
So I will tell my own story hope people will understand the power of prayer and that people can learn from it...
When I submitted my application (aroung May) to three schools (University of Stuttgart, Otto van guericke university of magdeburg, Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg), by God grace I got accepted into all the three school. Burry in mind that I did all my undergraduate program in South Africa, and that I'm from Cameroon. So since the program that I really wanted to do was the one at Otto Van Guericke University of magdeburg and also that my supervisor that I work with in a research Center in South Africa did offer me a possibility of job upon my arrival, so I went ahead and I did apply for my visa (17 August) with the letter of OVGU magdeburg, and I thought I was going to be some easy cake peace, but I kept waiting for my visa, when I hit the one month mark I got worried and went ahead to inquire from the embassy who told me it was just normal they did transfer my file to the allien office and that I should just wait. Then I just chilled out and waited, when we hit the 6 weeks mark my good friend ask me to contact the Alien Office, which I did to my big surprice the embassy never send my document to the allien office (village witch at work) after multiple tractation, nothing happen and the registration due date was hitting on. So I decided to withdraw my application and make a new application now with the University of Stuttgart Letter of Acceptance after a long prayer and the submission of my application I receive my visa in One week (5 workings days) so I'm now in stuttgart,
Since I'm not often here, everyone who's in need of information about uni stuttgart should just inbox me and we will exchanged number, and I will try to my best to assist to best of my ability.
I have a bachelor Degree in Chemical engineering and I'm currently doing an Msc

Hello everybody! I'm encountering some challenges with my visa application. I was given a rejection letter a day after my visa interview, with the following reasons stated: "They are doubts concerning your serious intention to study and the reason for trip, further prerequisites for a visa approval has not been examined finally". Though I assumed it was because I had not yet funded the DB account, but I was finally able to fund the account. I contacted the embassy showing them that the account has been funded, but since then I have gotten no reply from them. Has anyone encountered this challenge? If yes, can you help me out? I'm so confused! Thank you.

Bros u made a mistake by funding ur account when they hv aalready rejected u ..anyway the mistake have been made ..what u need to do nw is to appeal ..most of us dat got visa did not fund our account before interview ..we were asked to fund our account immediately after interview ..so I guess u didn't do well during interview ..just appeal ..eke40seven has posted an example of an appeal letter here before ..just get it and appeal ..dats all and pray also

My people don't carry load o. I had 11kg extra luggage. Emirates asked me to pay 149,000 for it for egusi, crayfish and dryfish that didn't cost up to 10,000 naira When I got to Hamburg airport I had a suitcase that was from carriage weighing 32kg plus handluggage 12kg and back pack. I regretted it. You would pity me seeing me on the road dragging such heavy load. Intact Na one black lady who i later discovered was Nigerian wey pity help me carry am. Because you need to work distances and take steps to get to the train station. If you don't have anybody to pick you up immediately don't try it. Wheelbarrow pusher no dey here o. Apart from foodstuff just take few clothes and stuff.

you r right .wheel barrow pusher no dey here .someone helped me at the airport dats y..so u got helper it's still cool .

my people am sorry its coming late. i arrived germany 2 days ago. here is my experience:
From MMA i didnt encounter problem cos they didnt check my hand bag, I didnt even know if they checked the weight of my load cos i was still carrying my hand luggage all throughout. I didnt even know the weight of my 2 luggage i put in the plane (I entered turkish) ( since i was not searched, i could have come with palm oil, my eyes rolled). WE left by 11:20, this was a flight scheduled to leave by 10:10. MY brethren turkish bleeped me up as i missed my connecting flight at istanbul. they gave me meal ticket at istanbul. i thought the meal na confirm meal ticket, it ended up being just breakfast meal ticket ( only tea and bons). I got to berlin Tegel aiport, with the help of my nigga who assisted me at the airport to his house in berlin, he gave me his room mate bus ticket so i didnt pAY a dime till we got to his house in cottbus (1st favour, I thankGod). I crashed in cottbus, pls forget our winter jacket from kantagowa marketet, the cold here na die. The cold affected my mouth, i couldnt speak well. The next day i left to magdeburg which is my home base. my nigga over here waited for me at the airport, listen, na true say germans are cold, we i entered train, they hardly talk to each other; the bus and train were very quiet, the bus stops are displayed on the screen, so no noise making and no shouting; {i don reach, abeg stop me here}. My niggas in magdeburg were cool, they showed me around, i did my city registraion as i got down from train since i already got accommodation. i went straight and bought lycamobile, pls buy the sim, calling lycamobile sims its totally free to each other so that all niaja pals go get lycamobile and we communicate well here plsss.i got lecture by 9pm and am still on the bed, no be my fault na cold wey dey here, i dey ,my room get heater but yet i wore kantagowa 2 jackets. please i forgot my toothbrush in naija. their toothbruch here soft die and i dnt like soft brush, please anyone comeing over should buy me 3 toothbrush(from mallam, they sell it 50naira) i go pay the person) try bring all ur stuff, dont mind whether the load too much or not,my nigga even caused me say i no bring pot and blender, plsss bring everything u would need if u can carry it. take my advise. am still holdling my 300euro, e still remain 200euro after all i hv spent so far like semester due and little things i bought. they work with time in germany. just mention me, i would answer, i might not have time to read all messages but i must read my mentions[i][/i]. danke .bis bald.

Zeeblamj01:
It's quite unfortunate that Nigerians do not consider eachother... These immigration guys are ridiculous... Sometimes they even ask for papers that don't exist just so they can get small change... Hungry Idiots... No offense to other immigration officers but these guys in airports are Mean!
Anyway as soon as they ask for invitation letter give them ur admission letter from the school and anyother document that they require... When they ask for return ticket u tell them it's a national visa and u won't be back in another two years. Don't give them a kobo! They normally have no right to keep u there if there is no document missing...

Thanks sis ..u r very good ..I appreciate the advise

Zeeblamj01:
U are not required to get a vaccine when traveling to Germany... And to be honest u shouldn't get a return ticket. It's completely unecessary if u have a national visa.... But if it's too much drama and they might be like that at the immigration stand then just get a return ticket and cancel ur flight when u get to Germany. But they may charge a certain amount for a refund...
But most times the airline only wants to make more money and that's why they try to scare people into buying return tickets... A person with a national visa does not, I repeat DOES NOT REQUIRE A RETURN TICKET. The immigration guys only try to extort money from first time travelers.

Thanks ...she seriously warned me about cancellation cos of the charges when drama starts so dats y am asking so Dat I won't make mistakes ..

@zeeblamj and others that hv travelled to germany through Wakanow.com.....
I had a wonderful experience at one of the outlets of Wakanow. Com @160 awolowo road .
the lady I met warned me severally about booking one way ticket ...she said immigration officers would definitely disturb me at the airport ....
she also talked about doing vaccine at the airport before travelling ....plss I hvnt heard of doing vaccine before ...plss house clarify me on this plss?

uchezdedon:
Just finished my interview. No additional questions. The igbo man was calm 2day. I was the first that was interviewed. Thanks to everybody who has been contributing to this trend.

@ iyke and kciano, hope u guys latter picked ur visa today.

it was nice meeting u dude....today was fun ..I met many nairalanders today ...anyway make i no expose one of our guys dat is already enjoying germany in Nigeria....@ uchezdedon. It was nice meeting u ..yes we collected the visa

I had a unique challenge so we dragged on the matter for so long but I believe yours should be smooth without hassles....if any wahala dey, just hold Kciano for sokoto, because him don be their ambassador.

She wouldn't hv to borther about that ..there won't be a problem...the woman would do that for u...

zeeblamj:
No it mustn't. your flight schedule is what corresponds with what they stamp on ur visa. As long at the date on the insurance covers 3 months in the end, it doesn't matter.

Thanks sis...Dat means if they stamped 10th of septmeber on ur passport and u r travelling on the 20th of september...immigration officers wont embarrass the person like u earlier outlined ?

emmanuellaiyke:
Everyone is talking about form A transfer and the banks here in Ikeja are telling me that I can't use a form A.Please what branches are you people using and please how long before the confirmation from DB that they v received the money?
And my name is Emmanuella Iyke and I Am A GIRL.Everyone here is referring to me as "he".

many people hv funded their account through form A...sterling bank , zenith bank , union bank have be ascertained and proven to be true ..so it's ur choice to choose which ever satisfy u....for sterling bank call the head of operation for more information ...the branch is at iyani isolo ..daleko branch ...call ....08093550551

Good morning pls must ur insurance letter carry the date on ur flight ticket ? I was meant to understand that the date u put on ur travel insurance would be stamped on ur visa ....As in assuming u intend travelling on 5th September but ur insurance letter is starting from 1st September to November 29th.

zeeblamj:
Hello to u. If u are going from abuja (don't know about Lagos), u might encounter some issues. Do urself a favor. Carry every single document u can think of cause they will look for something to ask for five thousand-ten thousand Naira for. They might ask for admission letter of u say it's a national visa. Infact print all mails from the school, and German Consulate as well as ur insurance and whatever. The guys in Nigeria tend to embarass first time travelers so they can extort money from them. When they don't have any document to ask for, they can't ask u for nothing.




In Germany u will have no such problem. Just walk up to them, give ur passport, they may ask u a few questions and stuff but not unecessary things. Only in France people get embarrassed by d police and immigration at the airport on the first time. Good luck!

amahtrendy:
