I gave that recommendation based on the question asked. The Consulate requested for a travel health insurance with upto 6months validity, I assumed it is better to use Mawista, since it is one of the cheapest.

Ijeshalomo:
Insurance depends on majorly age. If you use a private insurance and intend to switch to public insurance, it means you need to wait on your employer to do that for you. You cant do that personally on international student visa. So alot of things matters in the choice of health insurance. I only have basic information about it. The requested should pls confirm very well before making choices. Private insurance like mawista is very cheap

Did you signup for health insurance coverage in your blocked account? If YES, that would serve But if you used sponsorship letter, you will need to contact health insurance providers within Deutschland. I will suggest Mawista because it is cheaper. When you arrive Deutschland, you can switch to AOK or TK.

Enrolment document.

Thanks guys, would get all documents ready, by the way, what's an Immatrikulation document?

My advise to you is to go along with all your original documents. For some years now, there is a negative perception western nations have about Nigerians. For sure you may be asked questions. Some years back, I was delayed at Franz Josef Strauss International Airport Munich. The police officer that was supposed to stamp my entry date on my passport booklet said there was discrepancies in the picture in my visa page. He asked me if I used an agency to secure the visa, he requested for my admission & enrollment documents. He asked me to provide the document that was given to me at the embassy the day I went for interview that showed the amount I paid as visa processing fee. I was held for about 3hours at the port of entry and after deliberations with his colleagues and senior, my passport booklet was stamped. He asked if I have secured a place to stay and I showed him the room that was secured for me by a friend. In conclusion, it is routine to ask questions by the police at the port of entry. Best of luck in your endeavours!

DisawayDataway:
Hi guys, I would be traveling to Hamburg to study and I would like to know if the process at the airport point of entry is similar to that of the UK. Are you asked to show documents at the airport? are there questions asked etc or do you just show the visa on your passport?

Financing
You can cover your living costs in Germany through your own means or a formal declaration of commitment. In addition, if you have concrete plans, income from secondary employment that is permitted with an opportunity card can be taken into account. Please provide the following proof depending on your individual case:

⬜ Private resources in a bank account: To stay in Germany, each individual applicant must have at their disposal at least 1027 euro per month, which for the standard 12-month stay with an opportunity card totals 12,324 euro. You can prove you have sufficient resources by presenting bank statements or a so-called blocked account.
Blocked account: Please open the blocked account in good time before you apply for a visa. When applying for a visa, only the official confirmation of the opening of the account issued by the bank, including information on the amount paid in and the amount available per month, will be accepted. Confirmation which does not cite these amounts is not sufficient, nor is proof of lodgement or transfer of funds without confirmation from the bank.

OR

⬜ Secondary employment: If you have a concrete opportunity for secondary employment in Germany, you can present an employment contract or a binding job offer detailing the weekly working hours and your monthly wage.

OR

⬜ Declaration of commitment: Proof by means of a formal declaration of commitment in accordance with §§ 66, 68 AufenthG, in which a person undertakes in writing to the German immigration authority to bear the costs (original + copy).

Blocked Account is also applicable for Opportunity Card. German embassy/ consulate have no need for your Nigerian bank account statement. You must block the funds if that is the option you are using to prove your sustenance. Please give correct and complete information.

nnanyelugo1:
It's either you present Blocked Account,Declaration of commitment, Job offer or Current Bank Statement. Blocked account is usually asked for study purpose. If you have sufficient balance in your account you are good to go.

It is a normal routine to return old passport since it has expired. Your visum can't be fixed on an expired passport. Secondly, when an approval is given concerning your visa application, they won't ask you to send your passport in order to stick the visa on it since they are still in possession of your passport booklet. I wish the best as you wait for Approval Mail.

Nobody has been able to submit online visa application yet as Nigeria is not among the countries selected for the pilot scheme. What people have done so far is booking of appointment with the Embassy/ Consulate.
Online application involves the applicant sending his documents electronically for a preminary checkup to ascertain if the individual meets the requirements. After which such a person would be invited for biometric capturing. This is a wonderful innovation that would save time. Once your documents are verified and complete, you will be invited to come along with your passport for biometrics. When fully operational, it would be the best.

If online application is not yet enabled for Nigerians, then how come Nigerians on this thread have started applying for the opportunity card visa online?

FYI, uniassist does not issue enrolment extension. Enrolment is done by the school that offered you admission. Was it a public university or private university that offered you admission? If it is a public school, for you to be fully enrolled, you will have to;
1. Pay semester fee
2. Subscribe to either private or public health insurance coverage depending on your age.
So why are you not yet enrolled? Is it because of semester dues or tuition fee or health insurance policy? Money not complete for what exactly?

I know some students that school at Deggendorf and work in Munich. It takes 2hrs from Munich Hauptbahnhof to get to Deggendorf.
For Regensburg, there is a good connection from Munich Central Station. Depends on the time the train leaves, sometimes it is less than 2hrs. It is a straight connection without needing to switch trains.
Nuremberg has a connection to Munich Central Station via Ingolstadt. Sometimes, you may need to change train at Ingolstadt. Many student who study in OTH Weiden and Amberg lives in Nuremberg. ICE trains are the fastest in this route. If you can secure admissions in any university or college in Nuremberg, you can get a decent student job in Nuremberg. All the best!

Not convenient. Train connection to Weiden from Augsburg takes longer time. If you have morning lectures, it would be difficult to arrive early.
If you can get accommodation in Munich, it would be best. Train connection from Munich Central Station(Hauptbahnhof) is better and you can arrive early for lectures too. From Munich you have a straight connection unlike from Augsburg. Also you have a better chance of getting a better part-time job in Munich than in Augsburg. Munich is a bigger city than Augsburg. There are numerous jobs for students.

One of the criteria needed for interview & processing of your visa request is blocking of funds or letter of sponsorship. Why have you not blocked the needed funds? I know of someone who went for interview without confirmation of blocked funds. He was given two(2) weeks to send to the Consulate the proof of blocked funds.
I don't know your reason of not blocking the needed funds yet but if it because of insufficient funds, I suggest you write to the Consulate stating your problem. They should advise you on what you should do. Goodluck to you.
