In Addition to what dammymayor said, where did you get the statistics of 97% tuition free Universitäten in Germany? That is 100% wrong!. AS i am talking to you More than 6states in germany are now atleast tuition fee of 1,500€ per Semester.
However, some other state are still considering implementing tuition fee AS neighbouring state do. So, dont be surprise by next year, you hear the 90% of Universitäten in Germany collect tuition fee of 1,500€. for example, schools(public schools) in Stuttgart were free except administrative fee in early 2015, but now Stuttgart has implemented a policy of tuition fee of 1500€ for all internationale students except some exceptional students.
So multiply 1500€ by 2(2nd Semester)= 3000€per annum. This means you pay 6,000€ for the whole Programm(in case of Masters Programm).

NB: No one can predict what German Government will come up with next year. All what we need to know is to do the right thing and the right time if you are capable of. Thanks

Sir, i think you should get your own facts right too.
Stuttgart is not a state, to start with. Baden-wuttenberg is the only state i know that has implemented the fees ish for international students and Stuttgart is in baden-wuttenberg, so obviously schools there will be affected. Even at that, some schools in baden-wuttenberg still give exemptions to 3rd world countries. I know of someone in Stuttgart who got a fee exemption because he's from Nigeria which is a third world country. And the fee paying policy wasn't implemented in 2015 but in winter semester 2017.
I would really appreciate if you can mention the other 5states in germany that requires international students to pay fees.
So yes, i wouldnt mention any percentage, but most of german schools are free. In the tuition free schools, some professional courses like mba and mph are fee paying which i think is understandable.

Oh it's a masters course, I applied for a bachelors degree and it's not English taught, so I have to enroll in a preparatory course for two semesters, in other to learn the language

Oga. I'm sorry but this is hasty generalization. I had a cgpa of 2.7 on German scale and i got admission to study Geoinformatics at 2 out of the 3 schools i applied to (Hannover and Berlin). I am currently at TU Berlin studying for my course. So please don't try to mislead people by making assertive statements when you don't have your facts correct.

Also, my wife had a cgpa of 2.6 on German scale in Chemistry amd she got admission from 2 schools (Leipzig and Kassel). She will be going for her visa interview next week.

Moreso, it is only the state of baden-wuttenberg that has applied the tuition fee stuff. So it is only universities in the state who pay the tuition of 1500 euros. Though i agree with you that others may also change their policy soon but that doesn't mean someone should not use the better opportunity of studying for free which is still available now because of an uncertain policy change in the future

This your post is really giving me plenty hope as my gp is similar to yours on the German scale. I was also denied admission in the USA. Really wish to hear about your experiences particularly with respect to your wife's program as I'm planning on going with my kids and would wish to get all the knowledge I need. I'm in the applied sciences too like you.

Congrats bro

Please, kindly go to US Thread and ask questions concerning GRE. Those agents receive discounts cos they buy in bulk. You pay more when you pay directly to ETS.

Gonna step in here real quick and say the lady is saying the truth.

I got admission to ISB BUSINESS school (Reutlingen University) last winter semester, and was offered a scholarship of 1500 euro for my first semester. That basically covered my tuition for the semester. I had to decline it because I'm headed to another school. So yeah, she's right.

Hello Tony
I registered for GRE with this awesome firm in Lagos.
You can use this link to reach their webpage
http://www.gregmattoeflnigeria.com/toeflregistrationinnigeria/index.html

They charge 50k which is cheaper than applying to ETS directly. Also they give you free study pack and give you access to study freely online with Magoosh. Again they reschedule your test freely and bear the cost of $50 which ETS charges. Personally I downloaded videos of this cool tutor "Mondays With Niel" and it helped me a lot. Ensure you read for between 2 - 4 months before writing your test o.
I hope this information will be of help to you. Cheers

Thank you brother. You had saved a confused fellow.

Metabolite01:
Yes, dats exactly what I'm saying. Dats what I used in collecting my visa.

Instead of wasting money in getting travel insurance in Nigeria just to collect ur visa, at d long run u can't use d insurance in Germany, then ull end up getting a German student health insurance, why not apply for a student health insurance dat will get u ur visa and also cover you wen u're in Germany.

Interesting thing is dat u may not have the need of paying until u finally get to Germany.

How can one go about that?

ESB Business school.


Thank your star you ignore the school.

dammymayor:
Bros tell us the full story. Is not about misleading. What and what did you use to make your application stronger. You mentioned wife. So I assume you’re older. I also assume you must have significant work experience. Or at least something that made the school look at you. Are you telling me you applied with 2.7 and got admission just like that. That’s impossible. I can say it anywhere and I can defend it anywhere. I run an educational agency too from here. I have a running contract with two private schools in Germany to help them process admissions from students in Nigeria. The international university of bad honnef and GISMA business school in Berlin. So like I said before I no sabi much but I sabi small. Something else got you the admission. It wasn’t your GP sir. White people are not rigid like Africans sir. If you like have pass. If you can prove to them that this is why you should take me they will. But that’s the issue. Proving to them they should take you. I’ve gotten admission for someone into a masters degree who didn’t have a bachelor. He has 12 years of working experience that we substituted for a first degree. The guy head hot pass first degree. And we proved it. Pay me I’ll tell you the school. Information is not free. I’m not saying 2.6 or 2.7 is impossible. I’m saying if that’s what you are banking on or if that’s all you have. I’m sorry.....

You deserve to be banned because you here to scam, exploit and misled people.

85% of your information is false and wrong.

You are a typical nigeria base agent who looks for desperate and vulnerable people to milk.

I have been here over 5years to know you are wrong.

Few government university admit people with gpa of 3.0 on german scale....

I sent you a pm

michlan:
But why are you so fast to jump into conclusion. The truth is that i had only 3 months working experience when i applied and i got the admission which was in 2016. So i have been here since 2016 october. My wife just finished nysc in november with no working experience and she got admission.

Don't think i am old because of my marital status and definitely i must have working experience. I am not even up to 30 years. I finished nysc 2014 and tried for Canada in 2015 but was denied visa and that was why i shifted focus to Germany. I just got married December 30.

I understand if you have an agency and you're looking for clients but that is not a ground to mislead others. It would have been better to just state your observations without reaching false conclusions that it is impossible. Also, have you heard about non-restricted admission? My wife did not even do IELTS or TOEFL, she just used a letter of proficiency in English from her university in Nigeria

I think I could still remember vividly. Being a long time, I already sent you a pm. Your German number is needed, please do well to forward it via e-mail. You once helped me at the beginning with documents that year while I intend going for the same course and the same school as you did, lost your contact before leaving Nigeria.

what is this one saying where did you see the 5 states that have implemented tuition fee. Say what you no its only baden Württemberg that has and Nordrhein Westfalen is towing the part too.

Püblichen uni is the sure bet... go to germany study get good grades learn some good skills and german. Then the sky is your limit God willing.

I believe you're new on here mixing german and English anyhow

no mind am jare... every public uni in Germany is tuition free as at this moment. Except those within BW

Thank you all for the job well done.
I got rejected from two different schools stated the reason as thus; "The admissions committee has carefully reviewed your application documents and determined that your qualifications do not meet the requirements of our demanding Master's degree programme."
Fortunately enough, I studied Pure and Applied Chemistry in my B.sc and I put in for M.sc in Chemistry.
My questions are these;
1. Is B.sc Chemistry curriculum in Nigeria different from the one in Germany?

2. I'm looking towards applying to some other schools for winter semester again, doesn't it means same reason(which I don't pray for) might be given after application?
3. Has anyone experienced such this stuff as mine before and then later got over it?
Pls your prompt suggestions, contributions, and way forward are welcome.
