Hello Guys,

I know some of us are waiting for ADs, some have gone further to pay semester fees and block accounts. Abeg let us all come together and pray seriously that God will cause the consulate/embassy to release ADs that will fall between now and the 31st of August, 2019. I strongly believe that ADs will still be released.
I suggest we pray every minute of the day now not just for ourselves but for everyone expecting dates. Don't lose hope. This issue na small challenge for God.

DEUSTCHEMANN GOES TO WALTER CARRINGTON (PART III)
So, The big day finally arrived.
The two previous visits to the consulate were for Certification purposes.
I landed in Lagos on Monday evening, stayed with my elder brother.
Fast forward to this morning, I woke up by 2:45, took my bathe and dressed up.
By 5:00am, we set out from ogba. I got to the consulate by 6:05, met 8 people in front of me. I joined the queue and waited for the instructions as usual. At 6:21 Paulinus arrived, and arranged seats as usual.
Then a security officer called those for short stay, and stamped their appointment mail. Then he stamped for students and other long stays too.
By 7, Short stay applicants were ushered to Paulinus and he checked them in.
By 7:15, student visa applicants were called in and we filed up. Appointment mail and international passport checked. I happened to be number 5 on the student queue.
Paulinus admonished us as usual: "What I need is your attention."
He called the first 3 folks and began to give them instructions. The first guy appeared slow, and he got bounced to the last spot on the queue. The second lady too, seems she had issues with motivation letter, Paulinus asked her to move to the back, probably to make photocopies. So just 1 guy in that set was passed in.
When it got to my turn, myself and the guy that followed me, we were following Paulinus bumper to bumper. Local man was very pleased with us. In his words "I'm enjoying these people"..Lol.. he had to pend the first guy in our set because he wasn't as fast as we were.

Documents arranged, and well clipped by Paulinus, I was ushered in for security check by 8:15. Security checks conducted, I moved into the visa section, and probably became the first to be interviewed for Student visa because I still found the guy in the first set seated at the security post.

I entered cubicle 4 by 8:30. VO was a young man on lowcut.

VO: *with a smile* Hello!
Me: Hi. Good morning

VO: Does your dad live in Germany?
Me: No, he doesn't.

Me: Yes, Study, 3 months

Me: No.
VO: What's the medium of instruction for your course?

2. I'm passionate about Environmental sustainability
VO: I want more details. You have a motivation letter, right?
*In my mind, I even wanted to be brief so we won't waste time, seems this one wants to hear story. Naso I change mode sharply*
Me: My bachelors thesis was on neurotoxicology, where I studied the toxic effects of some harmful substances on the brain. The results I got increased my interest to how the harmful substances in the environment affects the organisms that live in it: plants and animals, You and I
*smiles*.
*VO smiles back*.
So I want to gather up more knowledge so I can use them to work in establishments whose activities have effects on the environment.
VO: Okay. That's nice. So, why do you want to study in Germany?
Me: 1. Free tuition extended to international students
2. Excellent practical and theoretical training
3. Opportunity to learn a foreign language
4. Opportunity to experience cultural diversification
5. Worldwide acceptance and recognition of the German Certificate
VO: That's good. Why don't you want to study in English speaking countries?
Me: 1. Very high tuition fee

Me: 1. Irregular academic calendar, which will not guarantee completion of the program on time
2. Limited exposure to sufficient practical training

Me: Geographically, Germany is located in central western Europe, with a population of about 83 Million people. Germany has 16 states and is bordered by 9 countries. Germany holds the largest economy in the Europe and 4th largest by GDP in the world. Germany is the 3rd largest exporter of goods: majorly automobiles, heavy machinery, chemicals and food. The president of Germany is Dr. Frank Walter Steinmeier of the Social Democratic party
*Interrupts me while laughing
VO: You know him?
Me: No *smiles*
VO: Does he know you? The way you pronounced his name sounds like he's your guy
*General laughter*
Me: The chancellor's name is Dr. Angela Merkel of the Christian Democratic Union. Concerning Environmental matters, Germany is a world leader in Environmental, climate and energy policies. Germany is presently decommissioning all nuclear power plants and replacing with renewable energy by 2022. Germany charges an ecotax of 65 cents per liter of fossil fuel used.
*VO nods and interrupts*
VO: Okay, Okay. That's good. The city you're heading, what do you know about it?
Me: Duisburg and Essen are part of the Rhine-Ruhr developed areas, and used to be sites of coal mining and steel production years back.
VO: Okay. What state is your school located?
Me: North-rhine Westphalia
VO: Where is it located in Germany?
Me: South Western part of Germany
VO: No. If I'm right it should be Northwest, since you have north-rhine and Westphalia.
Me: *Remains silent*
VO: Okay. So what are your plans after completing the program?
Me: I will return to Nigeria to take up a job as an environmental Toxicologist in the oil and gas industry.

Please can you kindly share a sample of a good motivation letter you have seen, can I PM you also?

eastafro:
might be unnecessary for you but it is for me. whats your problem anyway?

JosephAdeoba:
. For any English Language Course in DIT you wlll provide English Language certificate and they will not collect any English proficiency letter from you. God bless

yusuftosin:
1. A page or 2 is okay.

2. Preferably on A4 paper

3. Place the double-page (as opened) on xerox and produce the copy.

4. NYSC certificate is not a compulsory document for Visa application. If you have it, it will be accepted. If you don't have it handy, you documents are complete without it.
