olsrach:


I know bosss just trying to settle in,when is your friend arriving?

growth:


Please does court certify transcript too. Or It should be sent directly by the issuing school.

Williamso:

If your prospective school requires that your transcript be sent directly from the issuing school, please do that. However, all the schools I applied to (including uni-assist) required only certified copies, and all my certifications were done at Federal High Court. No institution had a problem with that.

dilahel:
Hello House, My CGPA is 2.53/5 Electrical/Computer Engineering, i want to apply for Msc Information Systems but the minimum requirement is 2.5 German CGPA I saw. should I go ahead and apply, knowing my CGPA falls short of the required CGPA. Please I would appreciate your advise.

Ethelbert006:


@Femi, my advise to you would be the same as the one given to me by the Zees, hopefuls, and Obiwans: PUSH from both sides and ensure not to sound desperate.

"both sides" implies
1. the foreigner office in the city where your school is located.
2. The visa officer in Lagos that sent you the mail to fund your account.

phempet:


Thanks bro,

I don't know what to do exactly, I went to the embassy here in lagos but was told to send a mail and I did just that to info@lago.diplo.de but still no response since then.

Zeeblamj01:

Send ur mail to this instead
rk-visa21@lago.auswaertiges-amt.de
Direct to the woman in charge.
By the way what city are u going and have u gotten in context* contact ( this autocorrect no go kill me Oo) with the aliens office?

phempet:


Thanks Boss.

I'm going to TU Clausthal. I haven't contacted any office apart from the embassy here in Lagos. Dont even know what the aliens office meant

Zeeblamj01:

Ur welcome.. Send an email, try not to sound desperate. Just casually ask what the status of ur application is at this point. Use your visa application number on the subject.
As for ur aliens office, it's it's just like an immigration office. They normally have to review who is coming in to the country, why and how long. They make the ultimate decisions as to whether u get a visa, or not. The embassy take the order from them.
So now find online the Ausländer Behörde of your intended city and start pushing hard, from both sides. U don't have much time left.
Good luck!

Very very urgent!!
Is it possible to use a sponsorship letter from US for my visa? I have done my interview with the DB acct option but d money to fund is d prblm nw. I want to switch to d sponsor option but my sponsor is a US resident nt German, a frnd told me is possible bt I want to b sure b4 I start something dat will make my visa been denied
.

Kelvinpam:



To add to what williamso said, regardless of weda your sch requires ur uni in naija to send the transcripts directly, you mite need a copy of it. Most schools are strict at issuing transcripts to students directly to avoid manipulation. So herez a lil tip.
You could send the transcript to a recognised company. Then make sure you ve a representative who can retrieve d doc for you instead of spending money and time for requesting transcript for each application.

That is where certification comes in. When you ve official transcript @ hand.

i will advise u to write to ur school for xtention of ur registration.let them know the situation.

RoyalPurple:

That was a very wonderful suggestion, but won't the German Embassy in Nigeria find out and will they not think you are going behind their back. Just thinking cos i am in the same shoes and my deadline is October 1st

LeoCruz:
reason for my denial was that " They doubt my serious intentions for my purpose of travel" etc.

anyway I was actually going for a B.sc (applied biology), a course different from my previous studies Engineering.

Eke40seven:
My advise to the 2016 visa hopeful is to try to connect their reasons and intentions for studying in Germany especially for unrelated course and BSc courses (since most BSc applications do not request for motivation letters) before facing the VO. Let some of your armour be heavily criticized here before you take it out into the real battle field.

Follow other people's step to start your appeal leo...it is well.

Eke40seven:
They won't, in fact, it has worked perfectly for so many people I know.

Here is a sample i drafted for a friend and the response was swift and quick.

Dear sir/Madam,

I am ******* ******* ****** from Nigeria and have gotten admission for the masters programme in ******* at OTH Regensburg. I write to enquire about the status of my visa. I had my visa interview on ********* and had fulfilled all the visa requirements, the last of which is the funding of the blocked account and which I have done and forwarded evidence of same to the embassy last week.
My school have mandated that I should be at Regensburg by ********* in person for enrollment and would want to get my visa as soon as possible given the short period I have at my disposal to travel and other continent arrangements. I plead that my student visa processing be done in time so I can meet up with all necessary preparations.

Please find attached a scan copy of the data page of my passport, admission letter and proof of funding.

I look forward to studying in the beautiful city of Regensburg and at OTH Regensburg.
I hope to hear from you soon.
********* ******** *******

P.S. I may take this letter down soon, as me self fit use am.
