alexifidon:

Cherey:
Please, How can I reach you.

Drop ur email. I will write u

alexifidon:
So they rate Togo and Ghana more than Nigeria!!!
It's well o...
I pray say the route nor go cast

1. It has to do with points ( 6 points)
2. You need almost 12k block account or SL.

This are the bottlenecks. But it’s easier to get Date in Ghana

Yes.

it wont cast. its stress on its own to get residency there and it comes with its own costs. so it's not easy too

alexifidon:
It's true I heard it takes like 3 to 4 months to get their residence card then you now have to be on that residency for 6 months before you can do anything

Infact something is really wrong with this country called Nigeria. I just checked now cheapest flights from Accra to Frankfurt is 950k. Cheapest from Nigeria is 1.5m to the same frankfurt same time period. Oga o. Everything is just upside down in Nigeria

Mimiomotoyosi:
Is there anyone coming to the University of Bayreuth? let's connect

Yes I'm also going to University of Bayreuth. I got admitted for winter this year. You can pls send an email with your number to kayodeolasunkanmi22@gmail.com

Iamlanky:
Please i need answers guys
The embassy sent me an email status they need me to submit my passport travel insurance and enrollment letter as soon as possible

Problem is the school uni Bayreuth needs a visa as part of the requirements to issue me a letter of enrollment. I am confused at the moment. Any advice on this? Should I forward my documents to the embassy without the letter of enrollment?

Ohhh... I don't really much about your question but I feel you should email the international office or your programme coordinator, they would be able to give you answer

I'm also going to study at the University of Bayreuth, so maybe we can connect

And again, when did you book for your appointment?

edimolu:
Good day bro

I just completed my application to Ulster. Would like to know if they issue CAS after the initial 5500 deposit, or would one make another payment before CAS is issued.

Please from your experience, do they issue CAS after the initial?

When applying for my German Visa.

I was admitted into the Studienkolleg program (German Preparatory course ) which upon the completion of this degree, I will transit immediately to my Bachelor's degree. But mind you, the studeinkolleg program is embedded in the university's Bachelor's degree application. Which should I declare, going for a Bachelor's degree or going for studeinkolleg? Please any detailed answer or suggestion?

I'm just feeling that, this Studienkolleg might in some way impact my Visa🤷‍♂️

Welcome to Nigeria

I just checked the accra site now it says I must have been a permanent resident for 6 months to be eligible to apply from there. 2 questions

1. Is the residency card the same as permanent residence?

2. How exactly do I get the residency card? How long will it take?

1. Yes
2. You need to reachout to NiGerians in Ghana for this info. Might take 1 month atleast.

Thank you so much for the information

Has anyone used MAWISTA Student plan as their Digital health insurance for their university enrollment.
Was it accepted?
Which school?
Did the school approve it automatically or you had to upload the MAWISTA document to your school portal for approval

When did you do yours? Now it says the minimum processing time is 3 months and it cost 208 euros. If it's for a blue card you can get it in 2 weeks.

No need to spend such amount.. If your university is rated H+ on anabin, just print it out and you automatically qualify. It's part of the requirements.

Hi everyone,

I'm not here to cause any trouble, but I wanted to share some information that might be helpful for those dealing with the stress of sending certified copies of transcripts. If this isn't relevant to you, feel free to skip ahead—someone else might find it useful.

In Germany, graduating students receive their 'Transcript of Records' once, and that’s it. They face the opposite challenge: when applying to US schools that demand official transcripts sealed and stamped from their German schools, they have to figure out how to send those 'official' copies from Germany.

In Nigeria, universities typically insist on sending official transcripts directly to the schools you're applying to upon request. This creates a lot of stress for Nigerian applicants who need to meet the requirement for certified copies. Many try to get their school to send the transcript to someone or an institution first so they can handle it and fulfill the requirements. However, I recently discovered that this isn't necessary—sending the original directly is perfectly acceptable.

If you have any doubts, call your university's student administration office to confirm this. I've tried both methods: I explained the application requirements to my Nigerian university during my first application, and they released the official transcript to me (my mum received it on my behalf since I wasn't in Nigeria). Later, through my research (asking the people I mentioned earlier), I learned that schools usually destroy the documents they receive, which is why they ask for certified copies. They expect you to have one original, which you wouldn't want to lose. Certified copies carry the same value as the original by law, but you can have many certified copies compared to one original. However, if you send the original documents, it’s not an issue—just know they won’t be returned.

For my next application, I had my Nigerian school send the transcript directly to the German address, and it was recorded as received and accepted. I eventually got the admission. I wanted to share this breakdown for anyone struggling to intercept their transcript because they believe they NEED to get a certified copy. If you’re hesitant, you can continue with your current method, but living in Germany has taught me that asking questions can reveal smoother alternatives.

Lastly, I want to say that if something is complicated for you, always speak up and demand a solution instead of trying to put up with it.

Till next time.

Hi Good morning... I recently applied for and have also made payments via uni assist for 2 schools I applied for. I would like to ask what I could possibly expect in the next phase, especially about submitting transcripts. Thank you.

God bless for this. I didn't even see this before, was it just recently updated? anyway, what's your findings on getting an appointment at the embassy? I have been on the assumption that it has to be the work permit but there hasn't been an explicit mention of the appointment the chancekarte is supposed to be booked under. what are your thoughts?

The checklist information was just updated less than two days ago. We can only wait and see what unfolds. For now, it's not available in Nigeria. I'll update us all when it's available
