Nice thread
Kudos to the OP.

But you did not state information for migrants.

My father travelled and live in Germany for some years and always scares people, me especially that Germany is a Police country bla bla. That once your papers expires police would be chasing you upandan. You won't have be at peace. I don't know if this is true, we are 5 children , 3 are in US, Canada and UK. But Ich liebe Germany, learnt Deutsche to a certain level on mein.
Please throw more light here.

Bodingo:
I live in Germany for many years, I think that Canada is better in terms of easy integration, less racism, feeling belong to the society and peace of mind. Germany is just good for working and making money if one have good paper but less friendly environment.

Many Africans use Germany as a transit point to move to Canada.Canada give a far less hostile ground for immigrants.

Now let's talk about education but to give you guys an idea about how they spend the money, am going to use US dollars in order for you guys to see how much they spend on a single student.

In terms of education, according to OECD, Germany spends $8,546 per student on education but Canada spend $9,256 per student.

They have some similarities and differences. For example, in Canada, everything from high school and before is considered free education but if you go to university or college, that is paid out of your pocket. However, keep it in mind that there are government grants and of course, sponsorships that one can earn to help produce the amount to pay for tuition fee and unfortunately, when it comes to international students, sometimes, they pay more than a student that is within the country.

Now, going across to Germany, believe it or not, when it comes to tuition fee, no matter if you are going to high school or university. It's all consider free.


Sorry for the late update.


Its like that d world over....
Even here in S.A, its worst.. International students pay about 3 times more than south Africans

Germany, economic powerhouse of Europe. Well both countries have their pros and cons. for example, Germany doesn't allow dual citizenship whereby Canada allows that and also you can easily get your PR in Canada compared to Germany.

But I still pick Germany.

Hadampson and Germany is just like Mr Bean and his Teddy bear. Unconditional love grin grin grin

Germany allow dual citizenship for Nigerians.

please I need more information concerning the block account.

Does that money cover feeding, accommodation and other expenses till you graduate?

During your schooling, will you be allowed to do some menial jobs atleast to make little money for yourself?

When the school is on vacation, will their hostel still be open for international students to leave till school resumes or the international students will have to go back to his country?

Lastly what course can you advice an HND graduate to do in Germany for him to get a pay job after graduation.


Kindly assist me with all this information sir. Thanks in advance

1)The money you blocked is just for a year

2) Yes

3) I don't know

4) Just do one of the STEM courses and you will be fine


Shalom

when my brother visited me in stuttgart from London,he was amazed at the building technologies of the Germans. how they insert wood inside their buildings. we also visited the Mercedes benz arena and factory. we also visited volkswagen headquarters in wolfsborg. in fact he is bringing his family and submitting their britico passport to the German govt this July. he was also amazed at the recycling machines. he said it's a German wonder

Now, Jump up and let's talk about the military because Canada has available manpower of 16,000,000 (might not be accurate but if you know the actual number, don't hesitate to correct me) while Germany has about 37,000,000. Out of this number, 13 million are fit for service in Canada and 29.5 million are fit for service in Germany.

Canada active personnel sit roughly 79,000 people, with Germany having 108,000 soldiers. Canada however has more soldiers in reserve (32,000) than Germany (30,000)

As for the defense budget of Canada is $15.5billion and Germany defense budget is $39.2 billion. However all of these are completely useless, all the machines that they have would be out of commission if they didn't have OIL and when it comes to oil, Canada produces more oil than Germany.

All in all, both Germany and Canada are a good place to relocate to. If you want diversity and maybe cold, Canada is the right place for you and if you want freedom of movement and work (easy access travel to other European destinations) and cultural exposure, then i suggest you choose Germany wink

cool

Oil is not necessarily a problem as they moving more to renewable energy, you already identified them as one of the leader in technology. Good analysis

Really? I'm guessing 90% or more of their citizens must be undergraduate degree holders.

Does this free education also covers masters programs...and how is it paid with...high taxes on its citizens?

Education works way different in Germany than it does say, in Nigeria.

Practical education eg. The politechnics (Fachhochschulen) brought Germany to the very high technical standards that propelled this country's economy to the premium position in Europe. Apprenticeship closely followed behind.

A University education, while prestigious is not a guarantee of a best paying emplomet here. Competence from out of the door is key, and that what a politechnic education offers. Now, some of that has changed now that we changed over to the 4 years bachelor and 2 years masters system.

Some states did introduced tuition usually not exceeding 500 euros per semester a while back, and there is a very robust students loan system called Bafög that is available for those who need assistance.

1.Is Mexico a 3rd world country? I know it’s quite different from the topic here but I just need a clarification.

2. the only difficulty in Germany is to get their residence permit..but once you get it ,forget Canada understand just forget Canada because life towards greater heights starts with your residence permit . Residence permit is your key to success in Germany and EU.
