nothing is going on I was correcting the impression that embassy does not need your language certificate. I replied them and they corrected the error that they have seen my proficiency letter

Hello guyz,

I have an issue that needs urgent help. For some reasons I don't know my appointment booking was cancelled either mistakenly by someone (the person that helped book it) or by the system (I can't really tell). I still have the application booking mail which was scheduled for October 15th 7.30am, then I got a cancellation mail yesterday which I don't understand how.

I'm still trying to book another appointment but my question is can I still take this appointment letter to the embassy on that day? For the guys that have done their interviews, do you think this will be an issue as my slot would still be open? I know the security guys at the gate just want to see the application print out. How else can I confirm an application booking?

Well my brother from what I observed, on the day of my interview the guy Paulinus has is own appointment schedule for each date and that is the last thing he will check last whether ur name is in his schedule before he attache a small white paper along with ur appointment mail. So please if u are sure ur appointment was cancelled which I don't know how and while it happened, kindly book another one.
Thanks.

Hello bro have you enrolled and when did you enrolled?

Nairalander pls advice. 

I was travelling with my family to Canada from Lagos, and flew through Lufthansa, so a stop over at Germany. On time to board from Germany to Canada, the airline said our visa was cancelled for no reason. We eventually thought since they won't allow us fly to our destination we can then stay here to seek Aduro. They took our passport, few weeks in camp they gave us a house and we had quickly finish our interview under 3 weeks.. We haven't stayed up till 2 months in dis country they don knack us negative, we even appeal, court still reject am but we don't get lawyer and the lawyer no dey somewhat serious. Another letter come from court and shows they can pick us up anytime and send us back to Lagos, since our passport dey there hand. Now we are thinking of changing country and go try our luck elsewhere. We already have finger print in germany. Please what do you guys advise.

justwise:
Here is the part 5.

Part4 is here https://www.nairaland.com/modifypost?post=58760455&redirect=%2F3941544%2Fgeneral-german-student-visa-enquiries%2358760455

I really have to thank those who stayed back to help even after getting their visas and despite their busy study and work programs in Germany.

I also have to thank those who shared their experiences right from visa journey to life in Germany as foreign students.


For newbies your German school search starts here https://www.daad.de/deutschland/studienangebote/en/



The following steps will help newbies (Thanks to CassieV for the tips)


Most of the schools in Germany are tuition free even for international students, you only get to pay a certain amount as semester fees say between 100-400 euros and most times the semester fee comes with a semester ticket to aid in transportation in your city or town.
However, before you're granted a student visa, you have to prove that you can take care of your living expenses with one of the following means ;
1. Block account: The estimated living expenses for a student in a month is 720euros, when you multiply that by 12 months, you get 8640euros. This is the amount you're required to block in an already opened account with either Deutsch bank, Fintiba or Xpatrio. It is called a block account because you will not be able to withdraw everything at once, only 720euros will be released to you every month.
2. Sponsorship letter: If you have a relative living and working legally in Germany, they can get you this letter. They'll have to visit the alien office in their city and will be required to provide some documents and pay a certain fee. The letter will be sent to you when they receive it so that you can go with it for your visa interview.
3. Scholarship: This is usually the best if you have the scholarship, your visa will be granted in under 2 weeks after interview. So try and look for scholarships you can apply to.

Now that you understand the financial situation, let's go into the application process.
To search for schools, click on this link
https://www.daad.de/deutschland/studienangebote/international-programmes/en/?p=l&q=&fos=0&lang[]=2&fee[]=0&sortBy=1&page=1&display=list
filter your search to make it easier, there are English taught courses there.
Generally, the very important documents needed to apply to schools in Germany are;
1. Transcript
2. English Proficiency
3. School Certificates (Degree, Waec, etc)
However, depending on the school, some other documents needed are as follows.
4. Curriculum Vitae
5. Motivation letter
6. Reference letters
7. GRE test
8. Etcetera.. Visit your prospective school website and find out the documents they need from you.
Note: You don't apply with your original documents, you have to make photocopies of them and Certify them in High court or a Notary public. If you stay in Lagos, you can certify at the German Embassy too. You'll have to book appointment for that.
For those planning to go for a Bachelors course, you need a 100level transcript from a university to apply for a BSc program in germany. WAEC alone will not be enough and No, OND will not do, you need a HND.

For the application proper, it is always important to go through the website of the schools you want to apply to, you'll get a lot of information form there concerning how to apply. Some schools do only online applications, some requires that you send your application documents to them by post after applying online, some you send your documents as pdf to their email address and then you get the uni assist crew.
Like I said earlier, it is important to go visit and read the websites.

When you get your admission letter, open a block account immediately(that is if you don't already have a sponsorship letter) and as soon as you get your account details, send an email to the embassy requesting for a visa interview date.
You need these to get an interview date:
1. Admission letter
2. Block account/sponsorship letter/scholarship letter
3. International passport data page(scanned)
Then your Full name and Resident address.

Prepare for your interview
Go for your interview

To those who are still waiting for their AM, Hold on its on the way. Don't loose hope, don't complain just be rest assured in your heart that the Lord has done it. Be patient it'll be here soon and all the best to everyone who are still processing their admission.

To those who intend to drop their passport at the embassy, please ensure you print out your AM mail along with the other documents you were told to bring or else Paulinus will send you back. It happened right before my eyes today.

Also, Paulinus said dropping of your passport is between 8-11am try to go there early please.

And to those who are sending through courier service, ensure you print out your AM mail and add to your documents

Finally DO NOT GIVE UP because God is involved in our case. We shall all share our testimonies. Amen

All the best to everyone
