Yes I am bro. I remember Eke40Seven telling me on my interview date that I could have done that. If you are worried about it, then take the two letters and present the one that you are prefer (and not the one you used for booking the interview) and just wait for the VO. That just means you have to learn about two different cities and different courses now.

Truly, there is nothing to worry about: it will not be an issue. You will be interviewed with the docs of the school that you prefer. Trust me
Can one ask d VO about going to more preferred school if he gets an offer even though he/she used a different school for his/her interview? I mean after the interview. One Love.

If the term "greener" is taken literarily then you may be correct because Oldenburg have a lot of farmlands and nature but if you mean "greener" in terms of hustle, then I doubt you have done a thorough research on this.

1million likes 4 u Taiwo. Twinkle jus come here de mislead d thread with uninformed advice. Wetin even concern me sef? Mtchew.
Obiwann1, in as much as I understand the point u made, we must not be myopic about our contribution in order not to discourage members from sharing respective experiences, funny enough, it's from experiences such as twinkle's would put d earlier info on a balance. me too had similar experience. I went to union bank, fidelity, gtb and first bank, fortunately, it was only first bank that seem familiar with d case because the operation manager asked me if I have all d necessary documents nd I said yes, then he said I should come wen I'm ready. Buh what I can deduce from all these z dat it's important to stipulate that the money is for study fees/study expenses. One Love!

Just two weeks ago, i had a conversation with a friend studying Msc Environmental Sciences in Landau, and here is her sad submission as she moaned into my attentive ears, "See, this is a place for retirees who are awaiting heaven as they look for a quiet place to rest in their dying days. This place is very small, and jobs are hard to come by. If you actually borrow money to come here, then i will encourage you to return the money back and gladly wait for another year or look forward to another school in a better location. I tried arguing that the place is in the west but she bellowed with a sharp and pained retort, "see, I'm a student here and you are not someone i can lie to and as if the place is not bad enough, the Profs here are racist ba*tards, the Africans are all bottom of the class and the German at the top and this is not because they are not bright but even for courses we both fail, the Germans are well upgraded and we left that way. Just tell your friend to stay away from this clime"
Coincidentally, this friend on whose behalf i made this inquiry for got admission in both University of Koblenz-Landau, Environmental Science and BTU Cottbus, Environmental Resource Management, masters. Then from further inquiry, here is what a friend in same course in BTU had to say about the place. "My brother, this place is cool o, not as bad as people portray it, rents are cheaper and Nigerians plenty for this end no be small, but honestly jobs no dey inside this Cottbus but thank God semester tickets dey cover the whole of Brandenburg and Berlin for 6 months. As i dey yarn you self, my job for Berlin na 450 euros, i dey collect, e no plenty but i dey use am manage. I spend up to 2 hours 30 minutes to and fro the work from Cottbus to Berlin but for summer jobs, things are looking up. I got a job in a car manufacturing firm,and the pay is very good on the very north side of 1k monthly,like 1,800 euros. Its not so easy but trust naija na."
Here was his humble conclusion, "My brother, if you have to choose between east or west, brother fly go west o if you get that option, men, I no go lie you, walahi" Don't touch it with a barge-pole, just let it be. I and my ogas in the past never touched it and we are safe, at least, for now. The question obviously is not for you to tick.
Ekeson Thanks alot Bro. God bless u. That means Bremen is better of than the two mentioned earlier?

You can choose whichever one is convenient for you. I filled with a pen and some other filled on PC with no consequence whatsoever but make sure you write in block letters and write clearly.


As regards the man at the gate, you won't have problems with him at all if you do these:

**Listen to his instructions CAREFULLY
**Be punctual
**organise your documents and dress modestly or gentlemanly. (He falls for that)
**If he points out you did anything wrong, don't argue with him at all, admit he is right first and apologize even though you are wrong before giving your reasons.

Note, whatsoever you do, the whole thing starts at the gate..

When you are in, don't start organising your docs there, arrange it well before hand. These guys are damn organised and orderly and they expect nothing less, especially when you claim your aim is to study.

For instance, when you are going for your interview, get three files
*****Your originals
*****(application form + photocopies) 1st set
*****(Application form + photocopies) 2nd set
Use the checklist of documents and arrange EXACTLY as listed with the EXEMPTION of your ADMISSION LETTERS which should come first.
Have your complete amount by the side, don't start searching bags and pockets at the very point of request, all these signs of unreadiness pisses them off. And note, the same person is likely to interview you.
First impression matters. Your interview starts from the submission of documents and gives you a psychological edge when the real thing starts. They will usually be at ease with you when you have given them a good reason to.

You may feel it doesn't matter but believe me, it cost many.

My two cowries!

P.S. By application form, I mean application form (4 pages) and questionnaire (2 pages) stapled together.
long awaited post. Thanks Eke. Please could u list d order of arrangement? Admission letter followed by visa application form > degree cert > waec > fslc > birth certificate > international passport photocopy > etc. It will go a long way to ease tension nd give more courage. I appreciate everyone, God bless our hustles nd crown all our efforts, Amen. One Love!
