Stiflersammy:
Is it true we don't need letter of presence to enter Germany again?

OdogwuEkeke:
Follow the student checklist to avoid stories that touch, if you do not have a letter of presence, request for one from your University, and if your course can be done online- thread carefully because some people get rejection due to this after the long-awaited interview.

Stiflersammy:


I asked school and they sent me this link..

OdogwuEkeke:
This is quite absurd.

You ask your University for a letter of presence and they redirect you to the German website

Almost seems like their answer is NO

What course are you going for?

Fustinachichi:


Madam sorry

Stiflersammy:


They use to give when I was doing the process and I thought they will give date then. But they suddenly did not want to give now and I don't know why.

OdogwuEkeke:
Maybe your course of study can be done fully online.

Stiflersammy:


Check what tony said

As opposed to some countries that require you authenticate your results at Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Ministry of Education at Abuja, Germany does not require I do this right?
Just certify my result at High court/consulate and I'm good to go?
can I do this in Lagos?
If yes, do we have a consulate in Lag?
Thanks

OdogwuEkeke:
So why was it stated as one of the reasons for rejection recently?

I think it is best to hear from the next testimony or rejection so we can learn from them.

TonyyS:


I saw the rejection letter. But it was not the reason for rejection.

The admission letter was old (2020/2021), the school didnt give a support document for visa, no enrolment cert. too

Bflexing:


I believe this is the rejection reason you are referring to:

You also submitted a certificate from the University of Applied Sciences confirming that the winter semester 20/21 will only take place online. Entry to Germany is not required to participate online.

And from what is above, he submitted a confirmation from the school that semester will hold 100% online, so no reason to be physically present in Germany.

OdogwuEkeke:
Old?

My admission letter is 2020/2021 and I have a letter of presence.

I don't know about other Universities but for mine, you can download the certificate of enrollment after you have paid the semester fee on PORTA. Paying the semester fee keeps you enrolled as a student, even if you choose not to register for any course that semester.

Send mails to get the necessary documents, it's a big risk if you ask me.

Like you are not even paying for it, just ask. Table your situation in an email. Only if the course can be fully done online or the candidate did not enrol for the second semester.

TonyyS:

Fatalveli:
