1. I opened a Fintiba account & went with the make the transfer doc. I haven't funded as I intend to use SL. My sponsor just got the SL yesterday & informed me, I got a call from the courier service about 10 mins after I got the news that the SL was ready. The VO didn't ask me any question about funding, though she gave me 2 forms to sign to that effect.

2. Enrollment deadline is October 31st.

3. Begische Universität Wuppertal

4. MSc Computer Simulation in Science, specialization is Imaging in Medicine. Yes it relates, my UG degree was Physics. Had a 2:2, 3.42 Cgpa, graduated 09.

I thought I did well in the interview, maybe the VO wasn't just impressed enough.


From what you said it appears that the issue here is that you didn’t fund after going with funding documents. Also even though you intend to use SL you have not still/ had not sent the letter to them before their decision was made.
Since you now have a SL the solution is straight forward, send your SL alongside a proper motivation letter which clearly states why you want to study your course and how it would benefit your local community when you return.

My Dear Bosses,

What is your take on Visiting a close by ECOWAS country to book an appointment for VISA interview, if you are allowed ?
Guy I tried that already and even got AD. I sent an email to them telling them that I’m coming from Nigeria and they flat out refused. Don’t waste your time and transportation fees to that country.

Cancel and book again with a later deadline. I cant assure you a date but you stand a better chance of getting dates than holding on to that booking. i wish you had been online and read when people were using later deadlines. A friend just got a date today 05.09.19 he booked on July 30th with November 30 deadline ( This was a month after people had been advised on this thread to use late enrollment deadlines).

Its simple if by now embassy hasnt given you a date and you are to resume September 23rd , they surely cant give a date now, from my experience they give dates 7-8 weeks from the deadline you choose. That is how the automated system works.

This decision is up to you though, and any potential reader. Danke smiley
Oga stop spreading false information. Some people booked 9 July with start dates of 1st to 3rd October and got 3 September as AD last week.

Please if you booked for appointment in july or before, with your start date as October please dont cancel, especially if you booked with Cat A.

Chill and be hopefull, your booking is on track. They gave a friend of mine AD (Aug 28) he booked on the 5th July used the same enrollment deadline as you.
Another got Sept 4, booked 8th july same deadline as you
Another got 26th Aug booked 10th july same deadline as you
The october Deadline is still viable that is why they are issuing dates upon its availability

If you noticed the dates have been awarded according to when you book and it must be an October deadline you used, from 2nd to 8th to 10th
by next week hopefully more dates might be available but i only see people that booked between 10-20th of July with October deadlines getting surprise dates.

Note this is for only those who used October deadlines in July cause their school doesn't extend enrollment. If you used November/December deadline this doesn't affect you and you have better chances of getting a date

Germans don't play with contracts, you signed an agreement to block your money for one year for study purposes. You will have to convince the embassy why you are no longer interested in studying as planned, then you request they withdraw your application. They will give you a note which you have to send to fintiba requesting for the refund. The money will be deposited in the account you use in transferring the amount initially. All the very best in your pursuits

Bros abeg cancel your AD if you have one, so that someone can Use it

How far online enrollment? I been try enroll but I don’t understand the process. In the direction that they sent with the admission letter, they said that on the platform you’re to click on “studies offered” and under it click on “registration”, but when you click studies offered you only see “application for admission”, which I don’t think is necessary for me because I already have admission. Abeg I go pm you so we can talk more.

hey everybody , i am that Ethiopian dude that creeeps up here and ask questions lol and i just had my interview and it was chill AF!
PS: naija and Addis interviews are completely different .
1. it was in Amharic (official language of Ethiopia )
2. it resembles a vfs application of sort
3. no random questions about school, or Germany or specific subject .
4. the embassy is not hectic like i assumed it would be there were like only 4 people there with me and all of them are Eritreans applying for family reunification . less number of applicants I guess .
5. so basically I just arranged my documents and gave her and she asked me a few questions like what is this ? (showing me the SL, this part was confusing ) , why are you

Hey Guys. I have a real issue right now. My main hope for an admission letter just went to ruins and I'm shaken. Its the University of Bremen. I applied for the Masters in Environmental Physics. It's non-restricted so I expected to get an AL because I have a Bsc in Physics degree. Now the rejection says I do not possess enough ECTS (less than 90) in Physics from my previous degree and that I can appeal the decision if they are wrong in less than one month. I want to believe the ECTS means the number of Credit points in Physics and from my calculation on my transcript, I have 110CP in Physics. Please, what does the ECTS mean and Please I would like to appeal it. Who has any idea about appealing and how likely is my appeal going to succeed.

Bro I had this same issue with passau when I applied for msc there in mobile and embedded systems. My b.eng degree was in electrical engineering, only for them to nack me rejection claiming I didn’t have up to 50ECTS computer science cp. after numerous mail correspondence with them I eventually sued them to court. But I don’t advise that you get to that level because in my case, what I was considering to be computer science courses were actually more of electrical/electronics engineering courses. Now my case is pending in the Bavarian court. And the problem is that if I lose the case I would be liable for both me and the university’s legal fees which at runs into ~ €5000. Immediately I saw that document I just boned the case, they sent me multiple emails to remind me about the case and update me but I just ignored them. I eventually got admission in a school in another state so I have no business with Passau again. basically ECTS credits are a measure of the work load of a student in a year, so basically a German student does ~ 30ECTS cp a semester and a total of 180ECTS in a 6 semester undergraduate program (210 for some 7 semester engineering programs). Thus in order to convert your credit system to their own, they either use the number of lecture hours per subject per week, or they use they use indirect estimates. The lecture hour system is not always the best because sometimes they may take a course and it would have 4 lecture hours per week and they’ll make it an 8 ECTS cp course, while you could do the same course in your Nigerian Bsc and it would be 3/4 units for you. The other system is by estimating the equivalent value of your credits by direct proportional multiplication in that, assuming you need 90 ECTS of a certain subject, they divide 90 by the 180 and multiply it by the total amount of the units of your undergraduate courses. Eg if you did a total of 170 units (all the units of all the courses of your Bsc combined) then you need 90/180*170 = 85 units of course that must be pure physics ( not mathematics or engineering or geology or any other elective that most Nigerian schools usually force their students to do because they are to lazy to update the syllabus). Either way, I advise you to send a detailed copy of your undergraduate syllabus. It should have the courses done, alongside their course contents ( topics covered in the course), so that if they mistook some physics courses on you transcripts for non physics course ( A very common mistake that leads to rejection on the grounds of lack of certain prerequisite courses) they could correct themselves.
