Please @eke47 and the other, I need help badly. My cgpa is 3.48/5.0 insurance I applied to uni-kiel at the summer but my admission was rejected. Reason of rejection was based on my bachelor degree corresponds to a German examination scale of 2.1 but my bachelor degree doesn't fulfill the master assessment of suitability cos of insufficient amount of required credit in quantitative and entire area. Then I applied for master in quantitative finance. Now I am applying again to university of Passau, master in development studies. I want to ask if am grade is enough to get admission or is it because of the insufficient credit in quantitative, which is the reason why I didn't get the admission. Please help me I need to travel this year.

lol..about Passau, most skools in Germany require 2.5 German scale which is about 3.0 Nigerian grades, this means u are eligible to apply in most skools. However, courses and skool requirements differs. I think Passau demands English Language Test,while some might take Language of Instruction instead. Mail the skool and make your enquiry, you can send them your transcript for pre evaluation if need be..

Best!

should I proceed in processing my visa with the letter received from uni assist or I should wait for admission letter from the school? thanks

Anyone here to help please, what does this really mean? declaration of sponsorship („Verpflichtungserklärung“) for the purpose of studies/ language course given before the competent German authority (Please note: Financing is usually only secured if declarant resides in Germany). This is what I want to use for my visa application when the admission is being given. Please I need to know the documents my sponsor need to drop.

Oga Spanish Laliga. Stop spamming the thread. Verpflichtungserklarung is issued by the competent Auslander. Your sponsor needs to earn above 2500€ after tax before he can sponsor you. Moreso, you really need to know him and also establish a connection during your visa interview and WHY he's sponsoring you. When he schedules an appointment with the auslander Büro, he'll be given a list of documents to come with. Most especially his tax, insurance, police report, account statement, his pay slip amongst others..

Lol at Bolder

As for your CGPA, I think you're good to go. I believe some departments expect you to at least attempt some courses during your Bsc cos this courses are criteria mainly used for their decision. Since you study insurance, maybe some quantitative analysis or financial topics were missing from your modules. Also, your letter of motivation also plays a great part in the admission selection process. Likewise test of English. IELTS/TOEFL.

My advice for you is to spread your net wide and don't limit yourself to certain school or course. Apply for as much as possible and all will be well.

Be hopeful and optimistic. I wish you all the best

Oga Eke well done oooo how school now....

Stop applying to the wrong courses and apply to the right courses you will be admitted. your CGPA means little or nothing in Germany. they look at the courses you offer in your undergraduate studies and determine if you have passed the prerequisite courses (usually at least 15 credit units).
Write a good motivation letter and include all previous work experience.

bosakelvin:
i believe dat is where the problem is from, you should have stated that the purpose is for living expenses during ur studies and add supporting documents such as, breakdown of living expenses, the slip from the embassy which you used in opening the account etc. dats how o mine yesterday at first bank, i hope and believe that my transaction will not be rejected.

either tuition or u write postgraduate or undergraduate expenses, I think that should not be a reason for rejection. They can also reject if other necessary attachments are not attached. I wrote ( postgraduate tuition fee/upkeep ) wen I was filling my form A at first bank and it was successful. It took 8-12 working days. But the important thing is prayer.... Gbam

1. Got the envelope at DHL office @ #4,120.00 Told them I need prepared courier envelope for Visa processing from German embassy Lagos. They know about it and also have the embassy's address on their system.
Reason for the high cost is likely cos the delivery address is another state outside Lagos.

2. I did not write it during or before the interview but was prepared for it, in case.

Dear applicant,

We are happy to inform you that the admission board has accepted your application with a certain condition. Due to your studied Bachelor degree the admission board strongly recommends a consultation in the office of student affairs before your start of studies here. That counselling will advise you to detect which subjects to catch up, that your first degree level is lacking. This will absolutely be necessary in order to be prepared for the master degree topic's requirements. You certainly will have to catch up basic knowledge on a bachelor level in the major fields of Geodesy and Geoinformatics. For any advice concerning your studies our team from the office for student affairs is happy to assist you with any questions. The personal counselling will take place when you arrive in university.

Please note: this email is only a mailing to inform you about the admission board's decision. It is no legal document and you cannot raise any claim for an admission with this email. The legal document for the application will be sent to you by the university's registration office starting mid of June. Please wait for this mail to reach you, thank you.

This was the mail I received from Leibniz. Does it mean my chances for admission is secured because I don't understand the correlation between the upper part and the disclaimer? Has anyone ever gotten this type of mail and was still not granted admission? I need inputs please.

Admission is granted with a condition, which you will have to fulfil during the run of your program. Obviously, your B.Sc lacks some basics that are required to undertake the M.Sc you applied at Liebniz.

The disclaimer is just letting you know that the email is not a legal document. You should wait till mid June.

So, congrats bro.
