Begin of study* (study starts in october.) End of study* (This I do not know).


Although, the program is a 3 year program. That is, 6 semesters.

You mean you submitted your health insurance when you went for interview?

Wch health insurance did you use? And did you make payment prior?

I'm trying to register with Mawista but it's requesting for credit card details whc I don't have.

Kindly ask what you want to know about it. Daad has different scholarships, which one exactly do you need help with it's application and do you have about 2 years post graduate work experience?

You are good to go. Please any documents sent to you via mail(admission letter, block account confirmation, incoming insurance etc) you just need a copy while other documents like your birth certificate, degree certificate etc you need to have one photocopy and original. Regardless of your appointment time just be there before 7am they don't follow timing of appointment, also have up to 140k in your ATM card, and if u are coming with cash they don't accept ₦500, and your ₦1000 must be neat, the total they collected for visa fees during mine is 133k.pls prepare for what u study in your undergraduate and little mathematics. Best of luck.

Good evening, everyone. My interview date is fast approaching, and I want to make sure that I am fully prepared with all the necessary documents. Below is the list of what I have gathered so far. I would really appreciate it if someone could kindly help me review and confirm if I am missing anything important:

1. Completed VIDEX application form along with the additional declaration

2. One biometric passport photograph

3. International passport

4. Birth certificate (certified copy) and Declaration of Age

5. Prepaid courier envelope

6. School leaving certificates (Junior Secondary Certificate Examination and WASSC certificate)

Pls guys, how do I navigate to the embassy from Oshodi?

Possible routes pls?

Focusfulfocus:
The German Embassy in Lagos is at 15, Walter Carrington Crescent, Victoria Island.
From Oshodi, here are the possible routes:


---




From Oshodi, board a bus going to CMS or Obalende.

CMS is usually easier if you’re heading to Victoria Island.



From CMS, take a bus/keke heading to Ozumba Mbadiwe or Ajose Adeogun.

Drop at Ozumba Mbadiwe / 1004 junction and walk/short keke to Walter Carrington Crescent.



- Landmark

Walter Carrington Crescent is close to 1004 Estate and the U.S. Consulate area.





---

🚖 By Ride-hailing (Bolt/Uber/Private Taxi)

From Oshodi, you can book directly to German Embassy, Walter Carrington Crescent, VI.

Depending on traffic, expect about ₦3,500 – ₦6,000 during peak hours.

Travel time: 45 mins –


---

If your appointment is in the morning, leave Oshodi before 6:30 am to beat the mainland-to-island rush.

Coming back in the afternoon/evening will also be heavy traffic, so plan ahead.
