Yes! the language of instruction is English? Re you there already, Please those who are there how do you get your admission letter?
I'm not there oh. Just a prospective like you. Wanted to apply and I could have sworn I saw German as the language of tuition. Let me check again.
Re: General German Visa Enquiries Part 2 by manover: 5:42pm On Apr 27, 2015
The deadline for admission was 15th of April, Maybe you should try spring 2016

You've gotten me really confused. Just checked again, and Applied Computer Science in University of Göttingen is a German taught peogramme.
Anyway, since the deadline was 15th,it should be too soon to expect a feedback. Some schools take 6 weeks for evaluation; some take even longer, so just chill. Wish you good luck.

Ah! I yaff read and readED. "Maka confuse ga dimma"
You just first break ground with this one.. haha
Bethiano:
Hello guys! Where do I start Now?

First, ogompaul, am in Enugu too, pm me make we sef relate, no be only Lagos people go dey meet each other!
E'speakelakwe ! Maka confuse ga dimma!

Its a good thing u went to Nipost Headquaters to send your mail, I think you are on point. No fear your mail don reach.

Secondly, I know I am the initiator and propagator of this Nipost registered mail craze, YES! Don't be surprised, na me start am and am glad I did ... Although people are too quick to condemn systems in Nigeria, they rush and say all manner of things about NIPOST forgetting that Nipost is giving them optimal service irrespective of the low price they charge and circumstance.

Yes ! I am a Nipost Ambassador, what more do u expect.

Have u ever wondered why DHL charge that much? Well just think about it, and be reasonable and objective about Nipost services.

Most people here take suggestions and apply it anyhow, and rush back to complain "its Not workin! ", pray for me" , blah blah blah....

Let me shock you, life is principle based, God only answers to you faith and not your rivers of tears, for without faith , its impossible to move God. Know that faith without works is dead, your work only answers to the principles you apply, hence you could labour and toil in vain.

Enough of the sermons, here is the crust of the matter, if you must use Nipost give ample time; say 10-24 days.

When sending your document, send through Nipost HQ in your state... If you send through a branch in your state give Up to 15-30 days. Cos your mail will move from d branch - state HQ - lagos office -destination.
The delay in transport is dependent on how active the branch or state HQ is, in terms of business. Enugu for example is very active, so it takes 2-5 working days for mails to leave Enugu to lagos HQ.

Now if you stay in lagos and need a quicky, follow Eke's advice of going to Nipost dispatch station @ the international Airport, according to Eke he claims it takes 6-8 working days for you mail to get to its destination.

Pls if you are not in Lagos, and need a quicky don't rush to a nipost office in you state, expecting a miracle , because Eke said this or that! This Eke no go die for una abeg....

Now! Bear in mind that the competitive advantage nipost has is because its cost effective , I mean its cheaper. If you have enough money, nothing stops you from using DHL. Some persons claim that some rich men are so humble that they decide to ride okada instead of jeeps that they can afford 20 times. Well,I no dey believe that kind rubbish, let that rich man wait until one "tipper bu aja" crush amm. No wealthy man is so humble to trek to his office 30km away, every day... After all those wey dey work for DHL suppose chop nahhhhh... No be bad tin if dem chop ur papa money.

On the other hand, DHL and the brothers, offer fast and smart service, although expensive.

Thirdly, obinwanne... Your matter be say u too dey do ...

Well u sef don come of age for this thread sha...
But , why didn't you certify your documents or open the blocked account as the case may be in Abuja german embassy. Is it that The abuja office dosent provide such service again? Cos, sometime in August I went there to open my blocked account. Well you can confirm by calling their office to be sure of the service they can offer you.
But let me state that, the abuja office, does not offer interview or visa issues for students, except its a new development.

The above goes to those who live in the north and around abuja, ...
I did my stuffs at the Abuja german Embassy last year. Afterwards I applied for visa appointment with the lagos consulate office. That's the procedure.
+ONLY lagos grants appointment for student visa for now oooooooo.

Make nobody misunderstand me oooo, before una go begin ask me questions wey I go just ignore as suggested my damindia....
Woow damindia, it have tey oooooo, where u go since.. Naughty boi, after you last episode, u just run....

fourthly, from my experience last year, this seal or no seal is new to me oooooo!
I certified all my documents in the court and it was accepted by all schools. Many thanks to University of freiburg and Duisburg-essen that offered me admission.

For those in Enugu, I just discovered another court, even a higher one, where u can certify your documents at a give away price.... Almost free self. If you are interested, just pm me, but I go like make we chilliout for NZA street after I give u the info. You can ask EKe my brand.

Fifthly (hope say dis one dey dictionary), Nevilebout, pls respect your oldage, and stop making ppl like obinwanne and co feel very stupid and lazy...

Sixthly, (hmmmm...) For the oldies, I mean ppl wey don dey reach or dey approach 30years old, Una don hear as e dey be nah... But I think the goal should be the in thing, not the hurdles.

Seventhly, ... Abeg it have do... My hand don dey pain me...


Yours sincerely

Nipost Ambassador


Reminder!
For tracking Nipost mail follow the AcTs of ogompaul.
Advice, make una go learn german oooooo.

Any answer wey the pekin tell you, just do amm like dat.

But make I ask you my own, if you go mama put, and she give you 500 naira food, must you finish the food, or chop and remain and ask the woman to reimburse u?

All na question...

If you like sign 50 % , if u like make am 15% all of them na signature, if them bounce you for embassy remember to tell the visa officer say na one 5year old direct you to come.

What then is the proof of your signature if not your international passport. How would the bank, that has not seen your face, believe the account will be operated by you, save you go through the process of affirming the signature in your passport in the presence of a german consulate officer.

No vex bros, which uni you go?

I'll use the Idea of the experiences I have seen others go through, mostly work visa related.
If you manage to secure a better job before the RP expires, then have your new employer sponsor your work visa. And from your post, I am assuming you have a job that you consider not better - you can always convert the RP to a work visa with your current employer. One thing I know is I don't think you can renew the 18 months visa. It has to be converted into a work visa and if you can't manage to get one within that time period, I believe you'll have to exit the country, get a job and apply for re-entry with a (new) working visa application. I pray you get a better job before your extension expires.

All the very best, bro.

RP= Residential Permit
work visa=German residence permit or an EU Blue Card

Plz I have am important question.. A friend of mine has a link DAT offers 3months Germany company work visa..he says the company will pick me up and Visa extension is immediately I resume work there.. He says its 400k without bta and flight.. He also said its a no interview stuff.. Plz how true is dis? I don't want to fall into scam.
Re: General German Visa Enquiries Part 2 by DanIndia(m): 5:17am On Apr 28, 2015
You never can tell what's waiting for you at the other side. This can be true and also could be a way of smuggling people into Germany. In these present days, such acts are still rampant. You reach there, they pick you up, take your passport and you work until you pay up for whatever expenses they've shouldered + some interest - I'm not saying this is your case, I'm just letting you know how this actually goes down.

If your friend says it's a no interview before visa acquisition and stuff, I'd totally disagree with him. As a first-timer to any EU country, you must go through an interview, in fact - it can be gruesome given that you're a Nigerian and are applying for a work permit as a skilled migrant *looking to not return*. But if he meant no interview in Germany for the extension, then I can so so agree.

And the term "BTA" is actually a scam. You are not required to tender any amount of money to prove your eligibility to travel outside your home country. You just need to prove that you have enough to get you to your destination/hotel and can present a card (which may or may not have any balance in it).

Re: General German Visa Enquiries Part 2 by DanIndia(m): 7:45am On Apr 28, 2015
@ohaksid, try browse the link I included in my previous comment. I took out the information below, from it.
"Even if you just get a job offer for a part-time employment , a residence permit can be granted to you. It is important that the expected salary secures all means of subsistence. The decision depends entirely on the local immigration authority"

and

"The German residence permit or EU Blue Card allowing you to take up employment is issued for a limited period first of all. If you continue to be employed and wish to have your permit extended, you will be able to do this without any problem. As early as two years after receiving your German or EU Blue Card residence permit, you can apply for a permanent residence permit – that is, a residence permit without a time limit. Again, the condition is that you still have employment in Germany."

Source: http://www.make-it-in-germany.com/en/for-qualified-professionals/training-learning/study/studying-in-germany-and-after/residence-permits-for-postgraduates
This could be any kind of job. As long as it is considered legal and skilled.

It smells terribly like a scam already. In fact saying u won't do visa interview confirms its a scam. Even when u want to convert ur visa to resident permit in Germany u will still do a mini interview on ur source of finance wia u present ur documents. My guy b wise, its a scam scam.

I have a few questions

1. When having your authentication done, do you go to the embassy with only one university application form or all the universities you are applying to? (For me: 5 universities, 3 are uni assist)

2. Must the applicant be eligible for the course in his home country or Germany would follow a different standard? My cousin cannot be admitted for law in Nigeria due to his Ssce bad literature grade, can German universities grant entry into their studienkolleg upon this?

3. What is your advice on accommodation for someone who has no family in Germany?
