please when the embassy purges the system by the end of september, does that mean with Cat B, should expect dates by october?

Jahsboo:
I gained admission there as well, MSc for same course. Thankfully I received AM today. I think you should write the school for the deferring option. I know deadline is Oct 30th for enrollment in case of visa issues. When did you apply for appointment and what deadline did you use?

glopatra:


When is your enrolment deadline? If it is too late, send a mail to the school and ask for deferment

yelei:
Bro, deh don't differ. I for one and oda members on d btu whatsapp group has written countless mails to the school and deh still insist on not differing bro.
I still believe AD would come through for all of us.

From my university

Dear Mr A,

I managed to talk to the visa office in Hamburg today. It took a while until the German Embassy forwarded your application to them and currently they can’t do anything because the embassy told them that you didn’t have a blocked account at the time of your visa interview. Once the German Embassy has proof of your blocked account, they will forward the information to the visa office in Hamburg and then they can further process your application. I will call them again in the second week of October, hopefully they will have heard from the German Embassy by then.

Do you have a blocked account now? It is very important because otherwise you won’t get your visa.

Best regards

I sent my blocking confirmation on the 4th, I think I will resend again

Tommynaku:

Its really not matter of block account I repeat again. Did you submit the BA opening confirmation? I f no that where the problem lies. If yes I will be surprise in your case
We are both of same school, I got my AM without funding. Infact on ma AD, I didn't have the BA opening confirmation but the VO asked me to get it immediately and submit b4 9am which I did
Did You submit the opening confirmation then?
Try and send to the Alien and the enbassy quickly

sahm4u2nv:
VISUM gotten.. I lost appetite patapata
To God alone be the glory �
Should you want to send percel to reduce cost don't hesitate to PM me

To everyone expecting one thing or the other, God will come through for you, amen!!!
Best regards

Thegamingorca:




Just look at...And someone said funding is not a determinant. It is well

Neefehmee2038:
I think they have changed the thing with getting AM without funding, a friend of mine got AM without funding and they sent another mail that stated that the first AM be disregarded and confirmation of blocked account should be sent instead

builderperry:
I would advise funding before the interview. It is the best!

flowsneh:


Please can anyone answer this question please? Some of us are to resume in October and we are yet to get appointment.

Thank you

imoriafe:
But another thing, its like some states r faster in process than others

Olami112:
Good morning families
Please if I want to drop documents at Germany embassy, please do I go about and package it ?

sassy92:

If it's your passport and travel insurance you want to submit, then print your AM along . If it's BA confirmation or SL, then just send it via courier.

imoriafe:


But what if someone is using BA

Olaaa11:
Hello,
Theres really is no time frame for requesting for Sl, what is important is that you have it before your interview date so you can present it alongside your documents at the embassy. In a situation whereby you dont have it at the time of your interview, you can always send it to the embassy when you have it.

No, you do not need an admission letter to apply for the SL, your sponsor only need to go to the german office where it done in his state.

Your SL can be used for any school. You only need one SL.


quote author=henrisco post=82562406]Dear Nairalanders,
For those that have used sponsorship letter before kindly guide me.
Can I start the process of requesting for SL from my sponsor before the arrival of my admission letters?
Do I need an admission letter to apply for SL?

Is SL tied to a particular school or it can b used for any school in Germany in the event of having many admission letters?

Please my people help me to get things right.
I am anxiously waiting for your responses.

sassy92:

If you're going to a big city where they have lots of applications, it may take them time to process them all. Also September/October is the peak of winter period with thousands of foreign students resuming schools so the workload is much. Just calm down, If you're below the 6 week mark (i.e it's not up to 6 weeks after your interview) then don't worry. Find ways to keep busy and distract yourself instead of refreshing your mail every minute.
Here's a general advice to those awaiting AM on how not to go crazy while waiting:
- If you haven't, start doing research on your school and the city it's located. Connect with students in the school, you can find them here on Nairaland or on Facebook. Ask them questions and let them tell you about life in school, the city, student jobs, activities etc.
- Start searching for accommodation, Housing in Germany is a big issue, and if you're heading to a city like Munich it's way more difficult. if you don't get accommodation, then you need to plan where you'll stay till you get accommodation ( Tip: avoid hotels and use youth hostels, They're far cheaper).
- Start reviewing your course modules, education in Germany is not easy. Download your course modules on the school's website and start looking at the courses you'll take, get textbooks and materials and start reading. if possible, you can connect with a student doing the course and plead with them to send you materials. Start reading oooo.
- There's a shopping list on the Nigeria Students in Germany thread, you can use it to start packing and preparing your things.

May all those awaiting AMs receive their testimony in Jesus' name.
