Please anybody who ran the whole process of authentication at MOE and MOF please kind help me out with the following questions

1) how long did it take for you to complete the process, getting eligibility letter at MOE and authentication at MOF

Hello house , I need urgent answer to this issue. I filled the application form in one university in Poland and I was asked to pay the application fee, they provided the bank details via bank deposit but they instructed that I should include In the title my full name, name of course and faculty in the payment.i went to the bank and was informed that i must have a dollar/domiciliary account to be able to transfer the money..I don't have that so I was assisted by someone who has euro account. But the account carries the owner's name and there's no space to include the names, course and faculty they instructed.. after sending the money and submitted with the scanned cheque slip to convince theem, I was told by their email that I didn't pass the 2nd stage of admission process. I mailed them to know why I didn't make it to the 2nd process and was told in their response that they didn't see my application fee payment... That was how I lost the admission...now am going for another school and i was instructed to pay by that mean again...right now I don't know how to go about the transfer to be able to include the details they requested because I don't have domiciliary account, am gonna use someone's account...please experience guys in the house please advise me on how to get it right this time....

YOUR MISTAKE

I share your pains for loosing the admission and money. You actually failed to proceed to the next stage of the admission process because you failed to upload a proof of payment of recruitment fees that reflects your personal data so it's assumed that you uploaded a wrong document or you didn't fellow their laid out INSTRUCTIONS and this is one of the remote reasons why we fail to secure admission and Visa.

MY ADVICE

1. You should find out from the school if there is an option of card payment. In that case, you can easily pay with your debit master card which is the fastest and easiest way to your recruitment fee.

2. Please note that it's almost impossible to make a wire/Bank transfer to an offshore Bank account (school account) without presenting your admission letter of which at this stage you are yet to be issued with one.

3. For those who have a domiciliary/Dollar account, yes you can initiate a refund transfer but the bank charges is very costly. Imaging paying $50 or more as bank charges for just €20 recruitment fee.

4. Finally, you can tell a friend or relative who resides Eurozone to make the payment using your name as depositor while you credit his/her local account. That's if the bank's over don't request for depositor ID like the Western Union and Money Gram.

I wish you best of luck!!

Please i am currently seeking admission for a BSc in the university of lodz, i have all the required documents and I've also notorized them with a notray public. Must everything be done by post? And does anyone know anything about the silesian university in gliwice?

Hello, usually after uploading the scanned copies of your original documents to the IRK portal, and if you receive an offer from the University, then you will be required to send by courier/post the notarized duplicate of your original documents to your institution.

Please always send email to the school of choice for your inquiries because they are in the better position to guide you on documents and procedures and they are always happy to help.

Hi guys,

I joined Nairaland because of this group.
I recently got admission to Poland for Masters in GIS and Earth Observation. I have gathered somethings so far from the threads as well as some questions for clarity.

-I know I will need to legalize my O'level Certificate, B.Ttech Cert. & Transcript at the MOE, are these documents the ones that will be legalized at the MFA also or are there added documents required?
-As per the medical insurance needed, I have two options, Swisscare and AIICO, which will be more advisable?
-My program is supposed to last two years, will my medical insurance have to cover the two years or can I start off with a one-year subscription and later renew?
-I know I will have to make a flight reservation which is required for the visa interview;
......................................................................................................................................- will the reservation be for a round trip or just one-way?
..................................................................................- can anyone recommend any travel agency that can offer up to at least 2/3 weeks reservation at a low cost?
-I know also, that, as a visa requirement, one has to show proof of subsistence. Can I use a sponsor's account accompanied by a letter of sponsorship or do I compulsorily have to present a credit account in my name?

I have read through the threads and most answers seem wuruwuru, some are straight to the point while others are confusing...
Please, I'm begging, I need this to be answered in details(please don't refer me to a page) and if anyone has further information or clarity to add, I will most appreciate it. God bless us all.

Please keep staying safe.
Thank you.

Hello, congratulations on your admission.

Please kindly note that as a prospective master student, i will ONLY answer the questions I'm very sure of;

1. You are required to also authenticate all the academic documents authenticated by the MOE at the MOFA (including other government issued documents like birth certificates, court affidavits if any) before legalization at the Polish embassy embassy.

2. Kindly note that AXA Mansard Student Travel Insurance covers student for a period of 92 days of which they advise customer to purchase insurance policy in the country of study to cover their stay.

3. I haven't gotten upto the flights reservations and sponsorship letters. Therefore I can't advise you on that.

I hope those who have being through this stages recently will advise you accordingly soon.

Hello, can someone please explain to me how you pay for registration fee... Cox most of the school I intend applying to don't have master card or any card paying option. I even went to first bank and they told me they only deal with tuition fees, medical bills... Etc not registration fee. Thanks in anticipation.

Hello, some schools usually provide account number for payments of applications fees on their websites while others will provide theirs to prospective applicants after your registration in the IRK portal. You can also email the international office to get the account information.

The only alternative to card payments is bank transfer which to me is the safest way to make any offshore money transfer and of course it usually comes with extra charges though not neck cutting.

Go to UBA with the account number and they will make the payment for you. They usually wire the money from the HQ in Lagos and not from the local branches.

Good morning everyone,
Please does anyone know if legalization of documents in MOE and MFA can be done by proxy

Yes you can authenticate by proxy especially at MFA. But that of MOE, the agent must have the same surname as the owner of the certificate and must provide a valid ID that has the same surname as evidence. Any thing less than that is not acceptable by the MOE.

Good afternoon guys, I'm actually new on this platform and i will like to make a very strong enquiry about one of the requirements to get an admission in studying an MSC program program POLAND.

* Precisely i have all other documents available except my CERTIFICATE. my school gave us an ATTESTATION to Bachelor degree and SOR, reason being that my school convocation isn't scheduled for anytime soon. will it be accepted by schools in Poland? and i was told it is going to be an issue at the embassy too. i just wanted to be enlightened. THANKS YOU'LL in anticipation.

i will appreciate responds pls

Hello, since your certificate is not ready because your school haven't done convocation yet. Your Testimonial suffices and the embassy understands that. You are good to go once you authenticated the Testimonial at FMOE and MFA.

I have a Bachelors in Animal Science (1st Degree BSc). So, as I was filling a Polish Admission Form for Masters Degree, I was asked how many Diploma I have. Please, I wish to ask, do they count Bachelors as Diploma? Can someone help

YES. They use the term Diploma and Bachelors interchangeably.

Travel › Re: Polish Student Visa by NwaUdi1(m): 11:39pm On Mar 31, 2020

Ok... Please read carefully.

To start with, there is no correlation between CS and IR whatsoever as such, you have a very slim chance of getting an offer of admission.

This is because CS is a very different discipline entirely, and you can't master in IR because it's assumed that you lack the basic knowledge of what IR is.

So it's always advisable to pick a course that has links with your Bachelors. I will advise you to go for masters in Cyber Security or Informatics.

As for the requirement for admission decision. They are right if they told you that they don't consider only your percentage as the final requirement.

You probably didn't read to understand what the email was saying because you are already afraid that will not make it. TAKE THAT LOW SELF ESTEEM OUT OF YOUR MIND.

Normally, your application and documents is usually analyzed by the admission board of the particular faculty your applied to through the online test to ascertain your eligibility for a Master degree by checking the compatibility of your Bachelors with the Masters intended course of study as well as your motivation. That is why i told you earlier that a strong MOTIVATION LETTER is one of the major determinant of your chances of getting an admission offer.

I hope you understand everything now, and i hope i have alley your fears so far. So give it a try bro.

I was told through emails by most of the schools, except University of Warsaw and University of Lodz, saying, they dont consider the percentage as final requirement, that it will be after the result f the online test... But still scared of the Unknown...

#28yrs Noted! If your point is equivalent to second class lower, then i encourage you to go ahead and apply for a Master degree. It's your motivation letter that speaks for you.

Meanwhile what is your discipline? And who told you that your grade is too low for masters?

terry026:
We use percentage in India, but its equivalent to a 2nd Class Lower (3.xx) in Nigerian system.... Most schools demands 55% and mine is 51%.... Age is not above 30, its 28+...

Travel › Re: Polish Student Visa by NwaUdi1(m): 6:37pm On Mar 30, 2020

Who told you that your grade in your BSc is too low for masters? What's is your CGPA? I advise you give it a try and don't rely on heresay because people are good at discouraging others. Even those who graduated with a third class still do masters. It all depends on the school, course and how strong your motivation letter is.

If you are going for a Second degree, then its better you don't mention it to the embassy. You are above 30 and might find it difficult to get a visa because your purpose of going to Poland is not very convincing and looks suspicious. Going for a Bsc degree while you already have one is very suspicious especially from a Nigerian applicant. This is my opinion though.

terry026:
Hello Folks, thank you all for your helpful contributions here. My questions are:
1. I want to apply for another Bachelors Degree in Poland, I already completed one at India (but doesnt have the required percentage most schools are asking for Masters). I hope age (28+) wont be a problem for both Bachelors studies admissions and visa processing?

2. A friend told me his school in Poland doesnt NECO. Can I get suggestions/advice on the popular schools that accepts NECO for Bachelors degree application?

[quote author=drehenry post=87827212]Below is the application requirements of the school I intend to apply

First of all you should send us all required documents:

1) application form (attached)
2) scan of the secondary school leaving certificate or Bachelor diploma with apostille stamp or legalization certificate (must be translated sworn into Polish)
3) scan of the official transcript of records with scale of grades included
4) document confirming knowledge of English language. If you don't have it, it is okay, all candidates must have Skype interview which will check knowledge of English.

Please guys I need better explanation of no 2 above.

1. Can I use either secondary school leaving certificate or bachelor diploma or the combination of the two?

2. Does the translation also mean the same thing as apstille and legalization if no, can you throw more light.

3. Does this translation cut across every other documents mentioned as requirements or just no 2?

4. Where exactly in Nigeria can I get this apostille /legalization (translation) done?

Thanks in advance for your candid response

The following are the response to your inquiry based on my knowledge.

1. You are required to upload your WAEC certificate only if you are going for a B.Sc program. And you will need to to upload your WAEC certificate, B.Sc certificate, transcript and eligibility letter if you are going for M.Sc.

2. Translation simply means to translate your Bachelors certificate into Polish language if it's issued in language other than Polish or English.

Apostille stamp for academic or government certificates is the recognition of official documents issued in a country that is signatory to the Rome Status of which Nigeria is not a signatory. Therefore since documents that are issued in Nigeria can not be Apostilled, then Legalization of those documents at the Polish embassy is the only alternative to Apostille stamp.

3. You are required to Translate your documents while you are in Poland if it's required by the school. Find out from the international office.

4. You can only legalize your documents for the purpose of recognition in Poland which alternative to Apostille stamp at the Polish embassy.

Hope you are clear.

Please always maintain social distance and always wash your hands with soap and water. COVID-19 is real! Please stay safe!!!

So where or how can we authenticate those documents that are more than 3 years?

If your testimonial is more than three years from the date of issue, you should get the original certificates before you go for authentication at the MOE. The MOE WILL NOT ATTEND TO YOU if your testimonial is more than 3 YEARS. Your original certificate should be ready after 3 years. Hope I'm clear on this issue.

And the Academic Transcript.

You should go to the MOE first before MFA.

The amount for authentication of certificates at the MOE is 300 per document so multiply by number of documents you have, and 1k for Eligibility Letter, while the MFA charges 600 per document then multiply by the number of documents to be authenticated.
