Where on earth that you will have current health issue still want to have health insurance? bro even in Nigeria no company will approve your health insurance certificate.

How much is the insurance cost for students over the age of 29? You said insurance cost 45 euro which is not entirely true

I don't think it is wise for you to do another Bsc in Germany. This is considering the financial implications and age no being on your side.

What you could do is apply to Uk Uni as you have the chance of securing admission there. This is if you have saved enough money to see you through. If that is not case, then settle for doing your masters in Nigeria.

Thanks for your sensible contribution, more suggestions from other forum members.

Says who? Rhine-Wal University of applied sciences and some other schools offer some Bachelors programme in English Language and thanks for your offer, but I'm not interested.

You know what you are doing, don't let anybody pull a fast one on you.

Bro, you have to seek for another university, germany don't offer Bsc in English,

You are clearly lying to people here, many many schools in Germany offer Bsc in English. You need evidence?

Good day fellow Nairalanders, I am in a
dilemma taking a vital decision as regards
schooling abroad and I would really
appreciate your contributions and
suggestions. I am in my late 20s, a teacher by
profession and currently earns a monthly
salary of over a hundred thousand Naira. I
applied to some Universities in Germany for
my Masters degree but was rejected as a
result of my low CGPA, I made a CGPA of
2.70. Now, I'm considering applying for an
Undergraduate degree Programme in
Germany, which implies I would have to quit
my present job. My question goes thus, what
are my chances of securing a good job either
in Germany or Nigeria with the newly
acquired first degree certificate considering
the fact that I would be in my early 30s by
the time I complete my Bachelors degree in
Germany. Is this a wise decision or should I
just go ahead and do a masters programme
here in Nigeria since I'm qualified for that?
Thank you all!

Too bad that German Universities rejected you for low CGPA. However, I do know some schools in USA will accept you if you sit for GRE and TOEFL. Many schools in South and North Dagota will take you. These schools have the lowest tuition in the USA and the places are centres for oil and gas companies just like Texas. North Dagota also rank as one of the best place to live in US. I have placed many Nigeria applicants in these schools. Goodluck

That is not true, not all, just some.

Yes free tuition fee but you still need to have 8000 euro in blocked account and pay monthly insurance.


Yeah but the 8000€ you put in a blocked account is yours to spend when you get to germany, and uf you get a job here you wont need to even touch it, about the health insurance we pay 80€ monthly, if you think that's not fair then tell that to my indian class mate that fell sick and needed a surgery that will normally cost him above 75,000€, health insurance paid for it and even call to check if he's feeling better. Germany have a reputation for best medical services, na air ambulance dem use pick this guy for his apartment when his friends called for ambulance.
Plus, after studies you are given a 18 months visa to get a job, if you do you will be given permernent residence. If you really came to study and passed then getting a job is never a problem. People get offers here before finishing their final thesis. What more can a foreign student ask for?

The other guy (golddust6000) gave €45 figure. Let me repeat again...studying in Germany is not free, for you to get a visa you need that €8000 in blocked account, €80 monthly insurance is about 204K a year. That is a lot of money.

Some other stuff you mentioned regarding job are exaggerated
