Joking apart, why is german embassy not given appointment to category B this is not fair I think this issue need to be looked into. But anyways let's still remain optimistic we don't know what might happen after the lockdown is over in March. DONT JUST GIVE UP KEEP HOPE HIGH.

It's just simple Politics. Accept and adopt their best brains

See eh, I believe everyone attempting this German movement is mature enough. There are guidelines that the German Consulate put up in their website for applicants. I believe each individual should be able to use his/her discretion in finalizing certain decisions. If your mind tell you Cat A, apply if not go for Cat B.

I don't understand how grown up individuals always turn this thread into FIGHT everytime. Do what your heart tells you and bear the consequence

This group has been amazing. I have a BSc of 4.35 Cgpa a 2:1 certificate dated Nov 2016. Im doing an MSc TU Dresden online since october last year, almost done with first semester. I applied for visa may last year under category B and had to reapply again on 1st October last year but till now no AD. Any advice on what to do?cause waiting constantly seems to be not productive.

Waohh!! I'm very curious how you manage to cope with the online studies. I also got admission in the same school and they gave me the option of online class but I couldn't go ahead with it

Nzesinachi1:
No! The thing is that everyone claims to know of someone that was bounced. Please, I need to hear from someone that was bounced. There is no way the embassy would give people AD and still bounce them. People can be fond of saying that friends of theirs did this, that.

This bolded line is too damn funny. See ehh, Oga Paulinus can bounce you for any small thing. Just acting clumsy can have you rejected at the gate

I currently do not have IELTS. I will check the stated University. Thank you.

Would you advice I take the IELTS??

Well, IELTS gives you the luxury of being able to apply to multiple schools. I have a friend doing that particular course I recommended and IELTS is the extra requirement that got him the admission

SpaceXY:
Hello guys,

Quick question. I have about 6million which I have saved over the years.

I graduated with 4.30/5.00 and I will like to go for my masters studies in Germany. I am very good with data analysis and I will like to continue along this path.

Although I had my B.Sc in Civil Engineering.

1) Please Can I get a masters programme in data analysis and Engineering.

2) How feasible and lucrative is this career path in Germany.

3) How many months will the application process take (minimum)

Kindly help me out. I am at the brink of making a life changing decision.

Thank you

Do you have IELTS? You can try DIGITAL engineering in Bauhaus Universitat Weimar Thuringia. Search the course on DAAD

Iceberry0001:
To tell u guys we are not the only country facing this issue of no AD, but look at the steps taken in other to get AD, I tell u if we don't do the same things will remain the way they are.

Iran, Nigeria are all in the same group of countries with internal instability from ARMED GROUPS. I keep reiterating that it's all politics, Ghana and Benin don't have these kinda problems. Make una tell your own Government to end insurgency and see if these countries don't give you better response

TonyyS:
lol why do u think so?

New batch of graduates + the graduates that didn't get last year + the new people that heard about Germany = SQUAD!!!

Sykodo:
Sorry for replying this late. Been busy offline for days now. The course coordinator referred to in your post is that of the university I'm applying to, right? If so, how do I get their emails.


Sorry for asking these questions, I'm just starting to follow this thread and the whole process, still on page 15. I'm wet behind the ears so I have a lot to learn.

Yes, the course coordinator of the school you are applying to. Either Check on the daad site or you can directly visit the school website.

SpongeBobSP:
Hey people, anybody here planning on applying for winter 2021? How's the preparation going, let's know eachother abeg.

LOL, this one na question?? Squad wey dey wait make applications open will be double of last year

authe911:
To think Togolese have the luxury of choosing an appointment date. Even at this time.

Is it our population or the fact that our Covid-19 figures cannot be trusted?

NB: Don't even think of going there to apply. A friend told me it's just a waste of time and money if you are not a 'legal' residence. Everything is in French by the way.

It's simple Politics. They see how your Government handles terrorism matters and they don't want to be associated with much of y'all. They Simply streamline to the best Candidates

Sykodo:
The one I'm talking of is the English proficiency certificate they get from university's registrar which can be used as a substitute for the English proficiency exams. I don't want the English exam route when I decide to apply

Then you have to send mails to your course coordinator to be sure they accept EPL for their admissions

Sykodo:
Please, I want to know if it's wise and possible to apply for English proficiency stuff now and keep it till whenever one wants to start applying or must one procure one just before he starts applying to the schools?

Better procure it now so that you don't experience much stress when main application starts

100Paul:
I have a question

Isn't a fully funded BA equivalent to scholarship?

Anyone with idea, please help.

BA simply means you have the funds to pay your bills while Scholarship means your brains are HOT and those are the kinda people that nations want to adopt. It's just a strategic something

olaniyi50:
Mehn!!! It's really nice to have access to this pool of information. Nice Job Guys.

I am Just about to start my processing to study in Germany, and I have learnt a lot by reading hundreds of pages on these threads; from part 1 to part 8.

I know that there must be a lot of newbies like me that are just starting out their applications. It will be nice to reach out and let us do this application together.

Thanks, Guys.

I commend you for doing this, it's really good of you reading from Part 1 to the current thread. This is what is expected from newbies here. Studying in Germany is all about reading and research so if y'all find it difficult doing it here, how you wan take survive Deutschland??

Engrkia:
Bros, big congrats on your visa and wish u all d very best in your new step... Please I need the direct email address u used in mailing German embassey, i need to mail my some of my documents to them maybe that gonna facilitate my AD too because I'm already running dis semester online and my school said i need to be there by march. Thanks and God bless.(engkia999@gmail.com)

I'm quite curious on how you are running the online class from Nigeria. How are you coping with the course demands and schedules? Do you have a day job here in Nigeria? Please, enlighten me

Nedusnap:
I and my secondary school classmate started the journey to travel to Germany for study purposes in 2017. I was already enrolled to a masters programme im Nigeria then, so I thought I should complete it before moving to Germany.
FFWD —> I supported my friend to travel and promised myself I will walk in his steps the ff year. So in 2018, forced by circumstances, I made the decision, prayed to God about it and He marvellously made a way. My decision brought me to Nairaland where I got lots of help from this community of fellow education sojourners. My Bad, I did not return the favor of giving back like others do. So that is the goal of this post- to give back in the form of good counsels which what I have learnt from my experience so far. I hope this helps:

I wish you a successful application and hope you join us here in Germany, hopefully when the border opens up again.

Don’t forget to return back to the community and don’t forget God in this journey.
Bye for now.

This is my paddy man in whom I am well pleased. HALLELUJAH you came back to help others bro. Na this same guy I dey him back when I dey try run my own too. I so much thank God for you bro

SOLARPOWER1:
A lot of people have been contacting me to tell them the "secret" on how I got AD. Please I don't think it was about anything I did, it's just the normal booking plus sending email with proof of my enrolment and letter of presence, nothing more... My pm is open to answer all other enquiries but please no more questions of AD "secret" which I don't have.

LOL, dem wan hear say you get inside person for Consulate. Baba, no mind dem jare. Your time has come and we thank God for it

Evaberry:
Hey I’m also getting a sponsorship letter from a friend in Germany will it be accepted since we are not related

Ya, just prove it's a genuine relationship

Those of you that usually search for accommodation in Germany, don't your schools have studentenwerk to apply for accommodation?

SOLARPOWER1:

O boy, questions don dey long o. Wetin dem ask me last year no even reach 8 questions

SOLARPOWER1:
Oga get your facts right.... Same USA removed visa fee for Nigerians

So what's your argument

HighPriest0:
You are right.
Germany is nothing without Immigrants. It will never stop accepting Immigrants because 50-70 percent of the work force is Immigrants.

The issue isn't about Germany accepting immigrants, it's about Germany accepting "Nigerian based immigrants". USA just tagged Nigeria as a nation with religious intolerance. Most Western nations take cue from USA for their foreign Policies. It's always been about Politics and International Interests.

And right now, Nigeria has a bad reputation internationally. Your blame should be on your Government for always handling things poorly

tosinhtml:
Come off with this mindset, no country survives without immigrants. Who is going to do those jobs citizens don't want to do? Menial jobs, construction, Nursing & even programming jobs, Going to study in Germany shows that you are actually impacting their country with Skill & knowledge, Immigrants work their ass off & also pay 40% or more taxes to their country. We work like rugrats, 60 hours per week for some just to earn a living & pay their taxes.

My point is: They need us as much as we need them. 50/50.

What I'm saying is Such services are easily replaceable. They can pack such migrants from India & rest of Asia. No one will see the kind of response our government are giving towards bandits and not think twice towards accepting us, It's simple politics. At least you can see Nigerians from other countries are applying and getting entry easily

charliesyndrom:
It's like u r in CAT A, how can u call German process simple? After all we r passing through. Have u gotten date? Or u r in Germany already. Unless u r referring to depositing to the German blocked account only as simple. But the overall process isn't simple

To be honest, German process is very straightforward compared to other migration process. Apart from issues of this year, one had a reasonable chance of moving as long as you meet all the requirements

Ayobami2001:
I just got my Canadian visa approved

Heading to Canada now. I need to get my blocked account funds.

Waoh!! Massive Congrats

fancyto:
I heard a Euro is 600 naira.
How true is this?
If so it means 10,000 Euro in 6million o.

It's a crazy reality. Person wey no fit meet BA of 3.7 million for last year go just dey get high BP

ExchangA:
Good idea. But bro. Let’s be honest, Germany is relatively cheapest. The blocked account isn’t for anyone but yourself when you’re in Deutschland. Unlike other places where you pay fees, this and that. Even the visa process is relatively cheaper. However, if anyone knows an idea of a place that’s as cheap or cheaper than Germany pls don’t hesitate to share info. Thank you.

GBAM!!! This is just the plain fact. I remember when I heard about the movement in late 2018, my head wanted to scatter. A whole EU number 1 NATION, I never knew such high quality opportunity was possible with such relative cheap cost. I no waste time to run the process last year, every step I took was learnt from this thread. I did get my AM but just that I wasn't able to gather enough funds for my BA & my SL link wasn't strong.

HighPriest0:
I didn't work 8 months sef but I made sure I spent money only when it becomes absolut necessary... In Supermarkt I never buy any foodstuf/thing above 1Euro... All thanks to ALDI

Aber jetzt ist alles vorbei... Gott sei Dank

Baba, which German state you dey and can you be more detailed on your lifestyle expenditures? Thanks

Studentscalenda:
Please has anybody heard of this

Na wa o. This one go rugged o

horHANS:
Some days ago, I expressed how challenging it was for me to get the course related to my field. When using DAAD website to search for English speaking courses in medicine (BSC), only two courses were available (Health information management and International health sciences)

Tried surfing the web to find courses like Nursing, Physiotherapy, Dentistry etc all to no avail. Mind sharing any other outlet where I may get these courses. Been trying for close to two weeks now.

I'm not 100% sure but I think I've read that it's difficult to find Medical Related courses in English language. They're usually taught in German

GreatMage:
Stop being hash... It hurts

But it's true. The pages are filling up fast because of such repetitive questions and people's motivations are wavering. At this rate, we'll have to beg the MOD to open a new page soon.

We are really hoping things gets back to normal & Germany remembers us. If y'all aren't aware with current affairs, International Migration is at a shaky point and we just have to stay optimistic and keep faith that these people reconsiders because Truth be told, they don't owe us sh*t.
