Do we need to upload the Resident permit page on the application form or just our passport data page?

Hello mates,
I applied to HTW in Berlin, Germany and got an admission to study MSc. Construction and Real Estate Management. However, it is an exchange program in which I have to spend my 1st & 2nd semester in Metropolia UAS, Helsinki, Myllypuro Campus and my 3rd & 4th semster in HTW Berlin.
Here are my worries; from my research, I learnt that since my point of first entry is Finland, I have to apply for visa through the Finland embassy. I have gone to read different articles online about the visa application/processes.
1. How do I prove my means of sustainability? Can I use a block account just like the Germany style or a Nigeria bank statement is sufficient?
2. I saw legalization of documents, how important is this and where and how can it be done? Which documents should be legalized?
3. When I checked the "https://visa.finland.eu/nigeria/Online-Application-form.html" for visa category, I could only see (research/training), does student visa falls under this category?

Alfred2000:
Hey bro.. thanks for your contributions so far. But i’d like to ask what type of jobs are available in finland, the chances of securing a job on time after arrival and on an average, how much can one earn as a student monthly..figure to be naira..
thankful

As a student that doesn't have degree , the type of job you will get is manual related jobs like working in supermarket , trashing waste bins at train stops, Newspaper distributor in early hours of the day , cleaning of offices among others. Most of these jobs are done within 2 to 3 hours.

You will earn a decent pay that will be able to cater for your house rents, bills & welfare.
Mind you house rent is paid monthly & it ranges from 100k & above .
Dont ever have the mind of making it quickly if you get there but you will be okay & live a decent life for someone that is still in school . My advice

I’m not familiar with Germany processes but for Finland this is how to get your RP & i believe it might cover you for your Germany studies( The most important is for you to start your studies & you will figure the remaining out later.

1. To prove your means of sustainability as a student in Finland , you can use a sponsor that will deposit an equivalent of 6720 Euros (560 Euros per month X 12 months for a year RP) in Naira into your Nigerian bank account. The money has to be there for the duration of your application & you can remove it apply you get your RP. The sponsor might be anybody you know not necessary your family but he/she must have a good Statement of Account (SOA) because the sponsors SOA will be submitted also at the point of RP application.

2. To legalize your documents, go to any court in Nigeria for Certify True Copy stamp on the photocopies of your credentials ( you must go with the original for them to see it)
Documents to be legalized
Photocopies of all credential, IELTS result, passport data page ,birth certificate and relevant documents
Check the last 2 pages for my comments on this with picture

3. Finland gives Residence Permit (RP)for study not visa. For you to apply for RP,application is done online through https://enterfinland.fi/eServices
where you will upload all your documents .
After that, you will apply for biometric & documents submission at VFS global in Abuja before the will give you appointment date to Finland Embassy in Abuja for interview. The interview is less than 10 minutes .

Every document you send with the application has to be notarized(CERTIFIED TRUE COPY) just to show that it is authentic especially since you are sending photocopies to them. You can do the notarization in Ikeja High Court or any court close to you. You will spend like 3k for all the documents

Attached is an example of fully notarized birth certificate & To whom it may concern letter written to show he had practical experience .
Every application differs based on your experience

Are there really schools with free tuition?
Please don't ignore this message

Paramedickelvin:
Good evening everyone happy New year! Please is it possible to apply for a Finland Study Visa from Turkey, even without applying from home country (Nigeria)

femmoy:
most schools are 7th Jan to 20th Jan, another wrong information.

femmoy:
oga stop giving people wrong information here,Finland doesn't require any certification of documents.

femmoy:
no schools is tuition free for undergraduate and master's degree except you are from the EU regions.

@oak202, while checking out for a friend, I notice the available spaces are not much. Thus, are there other schools outside Vamia that are offering similar programs?

Temmythourpe19:
We can learn how to be civil here.. If you think an information given is misleading, you can always express a correction in a very subtle and matured tone. There is nothing wrong in saying; "From my experience, I am sure (if you are 100% sure) the Finland embassy does not require a certified copy of your documents" and probably follow up with prove. No one is an island. I read from here "https://naijagoingabroad.com/apply-finland-student-visa-nigeria/" and it says a legalized document is important.

ThePianoGuy:
Also to be clear with the above information, Finland doesn’t use a block account system like Germany? And the money can be kept in my Nigeria account until i get the PR? Please confirm

another wrong info,you only need to upload your documents in the online portal and not sending it by post.

oak202:
I can see you didn't read my last post before you posted this message which i said all your certified documents have to be uploaded on https://enterfinland.fi/eServices/account/login

To God be the glory, i have 3 junior ones in Finland and one has gotten his passport last year. Mind you i’m a Senior level officer with Lagos State Government before you ask me what i’m doing in Nigeria.

Any information i put out here is through my experience because i personally assisted them through the processes.

I will soon share testimony of 2 other people here very soon because one of them had done his biometric at VFS,Abuja on Tuesday & interview at Finnish Embassy , Abuja on Wednesday.

I might not know about any other school process in Finland but for Vamia Vocational School, do not doubt my information.

God bless you
