Greetings,
I am going for a paid masters degree in Germany and I am required to pay certain amount for my tuition every semester... I have to pay for the first semester in Naija before my enrollment date and AD. Besides my tuition fees, I am aware that I will be required to fund my BA. But My questions are;

1. Will I be required by the German Consulate to pay the whole tuition fees at once?

2. If the Consulate only requires me to pay for the first semester, will I be asked to provide the means to pay for my tuition such as a bank account statement with sufficient funds?

Thank you.

frankly there is no appointment date been given in sight. If your deadline for payment is far maybe you can stall a little till you are sure AD are being handed to prospective migrants. Cos it'll make no sense if you pay and you end up not getting appointment.


As for BA omoh if you don't get AD by January I won't advise to pay. However once you get AD quickly go and pay. That thing fit hold you for waist sha so be watchful...woe betide you if the embassy anounce certain date for you few days before omoh nah to hands up

Im going to a uni with tuition and had my interview already.

1- the consultant will not ask you to pay full tuition. Its not something they are concerned about but the school might ask you to pay part of the first semester before sending admission document

2- You dont have to provide those. Just fund your BA

I wasn't asked to so i doubt if its required .

Chriswazo:
Be careful of associations u surround with.

Never forget this pertinent question, rehearse it every morning

"What do I want"?

U will see hopeless men here too that all the want is just money to go and settle in Nigeria or white toto to Bleep.

I have found out that everybody in this Germany is just serious and on a mission, just watch out that u do not be surrounded with folks of dissimilar goals.

Someone I met told me he just needs money to go home and enter Nigeria politics and another is after money to go and settle in Nigeria and do business.

They have goals and are serious about it, so it reflects in their philosophy of staying in Germany.

But there are people u will get here, mehn ur heart and soul will always be on fire.

The 10 years allowed for studies is okay to settle u, if u know what u want. Time keeps ticking and waits for no one.

Get people like Immafrank etc around u here, u know God really love and blesses u. U won't understand. Information is power anywhere even in Germany, so I can decide to shelve a valuable info and in my small mind, I am powerful, is true but partly cos.......
So when u see someone that gives u info of everything he knows and would bless u at no cost, u understand that person has a greater spirit and

I no want write epistle abeg

Happy weekend guys

Starred. Saved for future reference

Happy weekend BRO

Prost.

No u are not just pay the first money they asked of so u can get ur al den after getting the visa u can pay the remaining one.like me I have not paid my own tution fee and I was giving a deadline line to pay September 15 and I have my AM already waiting to get my visa the embassy will only ask how much u have paid nothing more.dont pay any other tution fee wen u have not gotten ur visa.

SOME USEFUL TIPS
If you are having doubts about maybe the embassy saw/read your sent e-mails or not in instances like- sending of confirmation of BA, making inquiries concerning visa delay or other inquiries at alien offices of your intended cities.
Futhermore, for people coming this winter,

That temporary warms/hoodie from 9ja is very important.

For Travels and movement in DE:
For residence permit-

ALL THE BEST GUYS!!

IN ADDITION TO MY PREVIOUS POST

Information is Vital here and so is everywhere. What you need/looking for is always somewhere, you just need to connect with the right person/use the right keyword for searching.

Some of our 9ja brothers here tend to hide information from their fellow 9jas even though it doesn't stop them from achieving their aim. So i tend to roll with more white people, in most cases, if you don't talk to them, they won't talk to you, so i always shoot first. A Brazilian friend of mine once sent me a job link when i told her i was looking for a part time job, it was a job related to my field and this company was looking for working students to work with some kinda data, no German needed. You will never find the job using google except you visit their website. Unfortunately, i didn't get the job but i was glad i applied as the interview taught me some new lessons on an international level. So don't feel too proud to ask for help/information, you never know the kind of information that fellow is holding.

AFTER RESUMPTION for the first semester and registration of courses, you might wanna check the next semester module, talk to students that did the courses in the previous semester to know how far, This is important so you wont go and larimo one professor Albert Einstein especially when the course is not really related to your Bachelor degree. A German student once told me not to choose a particular professor for a course project supervisor, i asked other fellows and they said the same.

If you have a knack for programming and you are proficient in Python, Java and JavaScript, you don't know what God has done for you.

Also, if you studied something related to Media in Nigeria like Mass Comm, you might wanna check Masters in Media and Communication Science in TU Ilmenau, the application is online (no need to send hard copy docs) and the admission is valid for 2 years but you get to pay application processing fees of 25 euros. For online application for Geoscience courses, you might wanna check University of Bremen. There is masters in Geodetic Engineering at University of Bonn, the program offers 3 specializations, but i think its only for winter application but the application is online.

Lastly, i have said this before and i will say it again, new applicants applying to uni assist (Masters), when sending your documents, look for courses in TU Berlin and University of Potsdam and apply there too, both universities are under uni assist but you don't need to pay processing fees as both universities have already covered the cost for their master programs.
If you are going to state of Brandenburg particularly University of Potsdam, try and get your Residence permit in Berlin, you get 2 to 3 years, although accommodation might be a problem in Berlin. In Potsdam, you only get 1 year RP, for the second year, they might tell to fund another 9k euros to renew your RP. So make your research well. Your school ID card (either TU Berlin or Uni Potsdam) gives you free transportation that covers for Berlin-Brandenburg including all Trains and local buses., so no issue with Transportation cost.

NOTE: if you graduated from Houdegbe North American University Benin Republic, don't bother applying to Germany as your school is not recognized here.

I just tire...The whole thing looks scary

Latter dey will be asking for deferred admission. Can't the missions just divide themselves into winter and summer.why should one be clashing with the other.

Maybe dey just like rush hour tins but this is really not healthy

SOME USEFUL TIPS
If you are having doubts about maybe the embassy saw/read your sent e-mails or not in instances like- sending of confirmation of BA, making inquiries concerning visa delay or other inquiries at alien offices of your intended cities. You can use google mailtrack to track your e-mails (Gmail users only), whenever the embassy or any individual read your emails, it will show a double tick and number of times your email was read and a single tick if it has not been read (you get notification for this, you can disable if you want to).

http://help.mailtrack.io/customer/en/portal/articles/1385608-installing-mailtrack

That is the link to setup google mail track on PC. Note that you have to install google chrome on PC and send the email (gmail) from google chrome but you can check with mobile after sending if it has been read. There are also android mobile set up which i am not very conversant with but for iPhone users, simply download Track - Email Tracking (the app icon is a green capital T ), install and follow up instructions. you can send messages to your friends to test it.

Futhermore, for people coming this winter, Buy Jeans in 9ja, there are some good stores in 9ja with good thick jeans, One low quality jean is 29 euros up here, except you are OBO. Budget about 50-100 euros for good and warm winter jacket, I believe the one you are bringing here is just for warm up, when real cold sets in, Omo nobody will tell you to buy correct one lol, gloves and money for winter shoes esp for places that snows heavily, it doesn't really snow in Berlin compared to Munchen. Get ready to buy thick Duvet. Sometimes you have to close eyes and buy good stuffs, and stop converting to naira when you wanna buy stuffs, it helps sometimes. If you are coming around November to December, you have to get some warm wears from 9ja, else you will perish in cold from the airport. Get 2 mouth extension, change your laptop cable to 2 mouth (not the powerpack, you know what i mean), bring bed spread and curtain, clipper, flashdrive, bring flipflops, liquids are not allowed on the plane but some people travelled with palm oil (make sure to tie it very well and wrap it), if you are using BA, come wit about 400-500 before you unblock, if you are using SL, budget about 2k for the first 4 months depending on the city and expenses, remember you start spending euros from the airport. Don't bring unnecessary stuffs like rice, spag, salt, sugar. Bring garri and noodles and condiments like maggi and curry.

That temporary warms/hoodie from 9ja is very important. I could remember the day I landed at the airport, before coming out of the plane, This German girl i was talking to from the connecting flight started to bring out her winter jacket, I didn’t know whatsup up then, coming out of the plane, see this mad cold breeze that blew, immediately I started shaking because I was juss wearing a top and a soft sweater, big boy hand drop ASAP, as I was breathing, it was like I was smoking due to the smoke-like air coming from my mouth (I don’t know how else to define, nobody told me the cold was like this). Then the bus that will take us to immigration came, all the irons in the bus was damn cold, I was seriously shaking, I was looking like a rain-beaten cat, this German girl offered me her jacket, unfortunately it was small and feminine. We got our loads, it was a little bit warm inside immigration, after we got out, immediately I open my big box, I brought out two reinforcements (still not enough but okay). Luckily for me, the girl’s mom came dropped me off at the main train station which was about 20 minutes drive from the airport, that saved me some stress. it is always the best when you have somebody to meet you at the airport(like a friend or family in the city you are heading to if it has an international airport). If you have money, there are drops at the airport

For Travels and movement in DE: Download the DB Navigator for general travels (Train, buses, Tram, etc.) and if you are coming to Berlin, download the BVG Farhinfo app (its shows you the fastest route and how to navigate easily) along with the DB navigator. I will say google maps is mostly important for directions on short distances and to know durations of long and short distance travels as well. It is important to have mobile internet on your phone if you are new to a place and going out. There is also FlixBus, it is like a subsidized bus travels mainly from cities to cities and to some EU countries.

For residence permit- for cities where you have to wait about 1 month before you get your card, and that is after 1-2 months before you get appointment in some cases, and you know you need work to survive, you can ask your RP officer on the day of your appointment to give you a temporary work permit, it is like an A4 paper with all your details including passport photo and it will be stamped, the paper will state that you had applied for a RP and the type of permit you will get including the number of days you can work which is 120 full day or 240 half days in a year. First thing first is to get an accommodation which is a prerequisite for city registration and issuance of a RP.

For health insurance, its a 2 way thing, the school will say public health insurance if you are not up to 30 years and private if you are more than 30, my guys not up to 30 years are using Mawista 33 euros monthly and it was accepted. Don't know how they did that but you can make inquiry from your school. TK and AOK is around 107 euros monthly. But public is better than private, if you fall off a bicycle or get hit by a car or have a serious ailment, the public like AOK pays everything but if you are using private, you will pay yourself at first and the private will reimburse some back depending on your insurance subscription with them which you must provide proofs for and trust me, and trust me these treatments are expensive.

And lastly, learn the language while you can, in big cities like Frankfurt, Munchen, Berlin, you might not really need it but in small cities, man you mostly need it to get a job at least A2 level. In all, you need the language to be open to more opportunities.
if you will be staying in Bremen, Stuttgart, Rastatt or areas closer there or if you have friends living there that you can stay with, you can always apply for vacation job at Daimler Mercedes-Benz, for working students, they pay 15 euros per hour and you get to work 35-39 hours weekly depending on your contract (Do the Math) and you cant combine it with school work, thats why its called vacation jobs.
Here is the website for Daimler Mercedes-Benz: https://www.daimler.com/career/job-search/
from position type, click vacation job.
For Amazon Job: Amazon.force.com
For general job search: de.indeed.com
For buying of used stuffs like gadgets, and also job search in your area: https://www.ebay-kleinanzeigen.de
Use google chrome browser for opening these sites when you get here for auto translations to English.
Also, make sure to always check weather reports before going out because the weather is always funny. Android users download The Weather Channel app from play store, it is auto installed on iPhone.

When you get in, open N26 bank, one of the best online banks here. Activities are online, no bank branches, Fast and easy, Banking app is in English, its is also free including free ATM cards
Downloading of movies, and some games w/ copyright are illegal here, a[b] German bro was fined 13,000 euros for movies download... imagine they fine you that one, you don die be that!![/b]

ALL THE BEST GUYS!!

Thanks for this invaluable tips, brother!.

I have some questions, bro:

Are TK and AOK public or private insurance organizations?

Are Munich and Munchen same thing? I see them used interchangeably a lot.

Regarding the emboldened, how person wan come take watch movies and unwind? What is thr average cost of watching a movie legitimately?

Finally, how does a typical day look like for a typical student as regards study hours and work? I am thnking say lectures are from 9am to 2pm. Then we have the remaining days to ourselves so that those who want to work will do so from say 4pm to 7pm. I, typically, would then want to sleep till 3am and read till 7am before going to school.

Does it always pan out this way?

Just thinking about spending close to 7m... For this German waka school fees block account fees etc.

Is Germany really worth it?

gbens2000:
House pls wen will Dey stay giving AD for summer? because looks like they have stop giving AD for winter people

Summer applicants should not panic because of AD. The embassy officially starts giving out AD next year. I don't know why someone whose study is starting next year April/May should be worried. Summer semester normally has fewer applicants than winter. So everyone must get a date no matter how long.

Those who have gotten a date for summer already are people in peculiar cases.

Your posts have never ceased to be reavealing and eye-opening!

I know a lot of emphasis have been laid on the usefulness of Programming skill, but still, we will be glad if you give some expositions of the advantages especially as it relates to your endeavours. I am presently learning the skill alongside the German language, so a little point in the right direction will be extremely helpful as well.

Regarding the intricacies of RP, what can you say about the states of Baden-Wutternburg and Bavaria? I will be heading to one of those states for my Summer programme, so i will appreciate some information as well.

Thanka brother!

Block account money alone is 4.5m.


The remaining 2.5m is for school fees though its actually 2.9m.

Munchen and Munich mean the same thing

Munich (English name )
Munchen (German name)

TK and AOK are all public

HighPriest0:
Munchen and Munich mean the same thing

Munich (English name )
Munchen (German name)

TK and AOK are all public

Same can be said for Bavaria and bayern
Saxony and saschen , lower Saxony and niedersaschen

madenigga:
Yes

Even if this endeavour will cost you 10m, it is still very much worth it..if the testimonies of folks who are presently there are anything to go by, the standard of living is high and you will get access to the good life most of us have not really experienced in Naija, even if you are financially well off.

Not mentioning the international exposure, inter-cultural experience, possibility of learning a new language and skills and expanding your horizon.

Regarding the prospects of getting a good job upon graduation, dont be discouraged by the ill new peddled by certain folks on here. People are still getting good jobs there, with purposeful upgrading of their skillset though. Even if you dont get something good in Germany, i am sure you can easily move to other choice countries in search of more greener pastures.

God grant us our heart desires.
