Thanks bro. You have been really helpful. Keep on sharing information.

Am in this predicament because someone I was applying with, played a fast one on me by withholding a vital information from me.

But it will end in glory. Amen.

On today's episode of how students survive in Germany, here are a few points for you all... cheesy

A popular scholarship is the Deutschlandstipendium (w w w . deutschlandstipendium . de / index . ht ml) which is open to everyone ─ regardless of nationality or personal and parental income. Applications should typically be filed from your home country, but if you're already in Germany, you should apply within the first 15 months.


The first contact point should be the social office in the Studentenwerk or the academic international offices of the university if in ''financial distress''. The advisors there know who at each university helps international students in financial difficulty. The social office also provides information on financial help from the state which you might be able to apply for.

One-off financial support can be applied for from the catholic (KSG: w w w . f h o k . de / struk tur en / hochschulgemeinden-vor-ort / ) or the evangelical (ESG: google ESG + your city on google) student community of the universities. At some universities there are also private societies that support international students, so ask around.

Education Loan
The education loan programme (“Bildungskreditprogramm”), run by the German federal government, offers financial aid to students. Unlike the BAföG, the “Bildungskredit” is a loan with no grant elements. That means that you will have to repay the full amount at an interest rate of 0.75% (as of June 2017). The loan will be paid in monthly instalments with the maximum amount being 7,200 euros. If you live in Germany as a refugee, you are eligible to apply for the loan. Please note that this only makes sense if you are sure that you will have the financial means in the future to pay it back. Repayment starts no earlier than four years after you received your first monthly instalment.

STUBE is a body that helps students with integration and excellence in their academics with a focus on knowledge transfer to the developing countries (especially your country of origin). Their mainstay program is funding students back to either their countries or any african countries of their choice for a fully funded 6months internship or thesis completion. You can google Stube + your city to find which of their offices is responsible for applications.

You are allowed to get thesis funding from your university! Once you get your thesis topic approved, simply contact your international center about funding for your thesis and you will be informed about the process. Payout range from 200 to 450 euros for between 3 -6 months. The aim of this funding is so you can concentrate on completing the thesis satisfactorily.

Word of advice, start searching and applying for student jobs immediately after your visa interview, you may be lucky as some have been to have something waiting for you before you land. Being able to email in German without coming across as a novice might also help.

Additions are welcome.

Your school fees is between you and your school

Fabcol:
It's feasible.. try fund before the interview(don't use SL) and start preparing for your travel. You might have to travel few days after getting your visa

olatunji1187:
Please do we have people in the house who have funded their Fintiba account with new amount? How did you go about it from Nigeria.

I opened domiciliary account, and intend to make the transfer through it, but I heard that the maximum amount u can transfer once is 9000 Euro. Meanwhile Fintiba insist that the transfer must be made once (10450 Euro), else some additional documents will be required which may evenctually delay the process because of verification.

Thanks for the information provided to prospective students willing to come over to study in Germany.

Also note that BAfoeG is mostly available to German students/EU students. It is rarely available to African students (unless you have PR). African students with residence permit for studying cannot receive BAfoeG benefits.

DAAD or STUBE is a better option for African students but be aware that holders of these scholarships must (in most cases) go back to develop their respective countries.

CruiseControl:


From the mail Fintiba sent me, they said I can do it 3 times.

But make sure its from the same account. Very important.

The beautiful thing about Deutschland is that there are several underlying rules that make certain things possible so very little people know about them. As rare as it is to find an non-eu student get Bafög, they do get it... Anyways this is just information, it will be useful to some and not to others

There are different types of grants and scholarships from Daad and Stube. The example I gave for Stube is a fully funded 6months internship or thesis scholarship which has no requirement to go back anywhere after you are done. Just read around a bit more and you may just find even better offers. i.e. There is a Christian body that gives 700euros per month stipend for 1year without any demand, ties or requirements other than to get a letter from a registered church in Germany that you are a full fledged working member of that church. Not all Daad scholarships have the return to base rule as I believe you know. Add others if you know, could help out some folks.
