I'm currently studying applied and engineering physics at the TUM.

Studying physics is quite interesting but how interesting you'll find it all depends on your chosen area of specialisation and what you want to do afterwards. Wanna remain in academia or industry? What areas interest you? condensed matter? biomedical physics, astrophysics? energy science, etc.

I would say that getting a job after graduation wouldn't be a problem if you give it your all and know what you want. A good number of my seniors go for a PhD after an Msc, so you have to decide if research is what you want or not.

You really have to be sure that you love physics and it's what you want, if not I'll probably advise you pick something that interests you.
i sincerely appreciate your contribution bro, I love physics, but the fact that it is a research-oriented career makes me think getting a job after msc could be a little bit tasking, instead one has to put in for PhD which is totally out of my plan...
pls those seniors of yours, did they decide to go for PhD willingly or lack of job pushed them to go for it?
best regards.

For those asking for transcript (winter)
My interview was on April 2nd 2019

So I arrive at the embassy at some minutes after 5. I met one security man and told him I have an appointment by 7am, he told me to go and come back by 6:30am, so I went to the park and waited till it was about 26 minutes after 6, so I decided to stroll down to the embassy, I got there and found about 5 people in line already and joined, I looked forward and saw one slender, not too fair, bald man at the entrance arranging chairs and documents, I immediately knew that is the legendary Mr paulinus.

Mr Paulinus first handled family reunion people before he went over to student visa people and I was second in line, when it got to my turn, Mr Paulinus asked for everything even up to NYSC certificate and beyond, he said bring every thing one at a time and arrange them on the chair Original-photocopy- photocopy like that. I brought out all the document he asked for except primary school certificate or testimonial and by God's grace I still scaled through.

So I was ushered in asked to sign-in I was number one on that list. Inside the embassy compound the security man asked me to follow a green line painted on the floor to a waiting room, I did got in to the room the security man ushered me into room 4, I went in and met a young dark skin lady as my VO.
She asked me to bring out my documents. I did and presented it to her the way Mr Paulinus arranged it three set original-photocopy-photocopy like that, she asked for two passports (by the way don't staple your passport to the application form use paper clip), I gave her, she asked for the application fee, I brought out the money and gave her, she took my finger prints, she gave me receipt and two documents to confirm if the information on it is correct and sign, which I did .

I presented two international passport to her initially so she asked why do I have two valid passports, I told her the old one did not meet the requirement it won't be valid for 3 months by the time I will be leaving (my old passport was still valid till September 2021 and my program will be rounding up that same period and the requirement is that the passport must cover your period of stay and still have up to 3 months validity by the time you will be leaving), she said ok.

Interview proper.
VO: masters or bsc
Me: masters
VO: what course
Me: Mathematics International
VO: why do you want to study in germany?
Me: I choose germany because germany is known for offering best academic, high quality, practice oriented program and also because of the enjoyable level of freedom, security, rich culture, history and the diversity characterizing it and also because of the opportunity to learn a new language.
(she was typing everything so I had to go slow)
VO: why not US, UK or Canada? Have you applied to any?
Me: yes Canada, because of affordability, it is not affordable for me and also because of the opportunity to learn a new language.
VO: but you can learn French in canada
Me: I'm not aware.
VO: can you tell me some facts about germany.
Me: (I kept on listing the facts because I memorized more than 20 facts until she interrupted and asked the next question)
VO: why not Nigeria?
Me: I began telling her about how the education system in Germany is better compared to that in Nigeria as my reason when she interrupted... she explained
VO: I mean what is wrong with nigeria (education system)
Me: there is no real balance between the practical and the theoretical aspect of a subject matter.
VO: is that all
Me: yes (wished I said more sha)
VO: why mathematics?
Me: because mathematics was the course I majored in during my BSc, so now I want to further and gain more advanced knowledge in the field.
VO: is that all?
Me: Yes
VO: can you speak german?
Me: no
VO: what is the topic of your BSc thesis?
Me: Modeling the dynamics and optimal control of Malaria.
VO: that's all your interview is over, we will contact you, thank you.
She returned my international passports back to me.

Me: thank you, please can I ask two questions.
VO: ok
Me: when I am asked to submit my international passport should I send both passport or just the current one

VO: just one, the current one.
Me: okay, so I booked for appointment using my old passport, hope it won't affect anything.
VO: she said no

I thanked her and took my leave, the securities asked how it went and for money. I gave no one a dime cos I wasn't sure who was watching or if it was a setup or a test.

Mr Paulinus never changeth his gra gra is new every morning, just do what he tell you to do. Drop your strong head and pride at home, the man can make you loose balance, make you disorganized by his shout and commands.

So that is my transcript Winter semester.
God be with you. Good luck.


Thanks a lot bro, I gained a lot from your transcript, which I believe it would help others.
It would end in praise Sir

Re: General German Student Visa Enquiries Part 6 by marshall54: 3:18pm On Apr 15, 2019
I have often asked questions about why this forum and my friends studying in Germany won't stop mentioning the name "Paulinus" in affiliation with German Consulate Lagos, when you have a first hand experience of his theatrics, you will understand why he is so dreaded.
He abuses the office which he occupies and what that office does is "to check your documents against the checklist and grant you pass into the embassy".

To save yourself this nightmare and public embarrassment, i would advice you start from atleast part 5 and read this thread to completion so as to avoid mistakes with the required documents and in what number you need to come with it.

Avoid the mistakes of others if you are wise!!!

Yes it is true, but no one will fault you for not going with it.
transcript, Nysc certificate and old document such as baptism card or vaccination card from childhood are part of documents he now requests for.

I started this journey last year but I wasn't serious enough with it so I missed the winter window. It wasn't funny then because summer seemed so far away but I decided to enroll in a German Language Institute in my city, Benin.

Fast forward to summer... I got my admitted into the MSc Biological Resources program, Hochschule Rhine-Waal on the 10th of January.

Alles gutes!

Congrats once again.

I have got eyes on Rhine-Waal as well, and same course.

If you dont mind, I would love to know a little about your profile (B.Sc course and work experience) so that i can put things in perspective as i send in my application later in the year.

Also, did you have to write the IELTS?

Like dis quote"to avoid stories that touch".Hope d school accepts the one sent directly to them from my school cos considering the distance of going to Lagos or Abuja for certification will be expensive and considering the letter head also is not bearing their address.Don't know whether the also accept letter of English proficiency.
I'm not sure if they might take that.
What you'll do? Mail both the course coordinator as well as the international office and see if they will accept documents sent directly from your school.

Yes, they accept proficiency letter.

you will need one application & motivational letter per school applied for.

one envelope per school containing signed application form and/or motivation letter. if you applied to 3 schools, 3 envelopes - properly labelled and addressed to EACH school.

one larger envelope into which you will put:
3 smaller envelopes( one per school) AND

uni-assist will package a copy of your documents and each schools application form/motivational letter, they will send to each school you have paid for.

If the 3 applications are all through Uni-assist, then send only one set of notarized documents to them.

Put all your application forms in an envelope with 1 set of certified documents. They will use the 1 set for the 3 applications.
