AM- Approval mail, mail from the embassy asking you to send your passport for visa
AD- appointment date, date of your student visa interview at the consulate.
To answer your original question;
- before you seek deferment, find out from your school if you can enrol by proxy. Enrollment by proxy means you can do your enrollment while you're still in Nigeria. Once you enrol in a school you're student of that school, therefore you can resume anytime. People resume for winter semester up till December/January (even though winter semester officially starts in October for most schools).
- If your school refuses to allow you enrol by proxy, then you can seek deferment. They will have to issue you a new Admission letter (AL). Once the new AL has been issued then you can book for appointment at the embassy.

Thanks, this is quite helpful. Though I wrote them a mail asking to defer my admission. But I was told deferring admission is no longer possible.

Thegamingorca:
you should book an appointment with AL at hand.

If your school has already given admission you can talk to them to reconsider early next winter. Or look up the opening for application of that school.

Try to understand that the queue for AL can be much so that may be why it took long for the school to send your AL

Once you have geared yourself towards a successful AL
you must then book appointment Date. Most ppl that have pending application or about to be erased from their database sept ending, applied from July, August. If you can apply before those months provided you have AL you should be fine

Thanks.
What is AM and AD pls?. For us Newbies

Good morning to everyone. Am new here. Just joined this thread. I got admission for a master degree program in Germany this year for winter semester. But due to lack of information, I didn’t book my visa appointment on time. Now I have to wait till next winter semester 2020. Pls when is the best time to register/ book an appointment for student visa for next winter semester?.
