Nothing, I am still waiting 😔


PinkJay:
Not yet oo, have you?
TravelRe: General-german-student-visa-enquiries Part 8 by Saraph25: 7:06pm On Sep 21, 2025
Hey any response yet for you from the Embassy?


PinkJay:
Is anyone else waiting to hear from the embassy after interview, it’s already been 8 weeks and I am yet to hear from them.
TravelRe: General-german-student-visa-enquiries Part 8 by Saraph25: 5:49pm On Sep 13, 2025
This waiting might be peculiar to only those going to Bavaria. But why are they taking that long?



PinkJay:
Pfarrkirchen / Bavaria
TravelRe: General-german-student-visa-enquiries Part 8 by Saraph25: 12:28pm On Sep 13, 2025
Bayern/Schweinfurt. What about you?


PinkJay:
Good evening, please what state/ City are you going to? it’s been 8 weeks for me.
TravelRe: General-german-student-visa-enquiries Part 8 by Saraph25: 7:16pm On Sep 12, 2025

Please is there anyone here who applied for Semester of leave twice because of the long waiting time and Eventually got Visa at the end of the day.
What did you do differently, how did it play out? Please share your experience, it will go a long way.

My School is insisting I apply for a Leave of Absence for the second time because of Exams deadlines for Sommer Semester even after I requested for Late Arrival Certificate.
My AD is on the 24th of June. What should I do?
TravelRe: General-german-student-visa-enquiries Part 8 by Saraph25: 7:09pm On May 23, 2025
Did you really get AD today? Mine was also 8th of September 2023 but till now I didn't get any AD.

Eternaljayy:
Hello everyone.

8th of September 2023 has gotten AD for June
TravelRe: General-german-student-visa-enquiries Part 8 by Saraph25: 4:06pm On May 23, 2025
No, I did not. It was just only Study Visa I booked for.

pineapplejuice:
And still nothing? Did you book appointments in another category? Like Opportunity card or Ausbildung?
TravelRe: General-german-student-visa-enquiries Part 8 by Saraph25: 3:15pm On May 23, 2025
Yes I did all that.

pineapplejuice:
I think there's a delay in the emails. Someone else who booked 8th September said they haven't gotten a date yet. Have you checked your spam folder? And did you confirm your email in April last year?
TravelRe: General-german-student-visa-enquiries Part 8 by Saraph25: 1:45pm On May 23, 2025
I also booked on the 8th of September 2023, but I haven't gotten AD email till now. What's going on?

Eternaljayy:
Hello everyone.

8th of September 2023 has gotten AD for June

Congratulations

Aura4aura:
I want to thank everybody in this group for both informations that were passed here and words of motivation. I got my visa and I am so happy.
The process was a hard one but it ended well. So I am here to encourage others to keep going and to also detail my experience as somebody can learn a thing or two from it.
My first interview was scheduled for March 18th but by then I didn’t have block account confirmation. I sent an email to reschedule but I got no response. So on the interview date, I went there with the bank deposit slip and I was told I couldn’t be interviewed. I explained to them that I had already sent an email to reschedule but I got no reply. I was told to wait for a minute. The lady finally came back and told me that they just saw my email and I am lucky I did sent the email I will be rescheduled. I was rescheduled for may 8th and by then I had my block account confirmation.
During the interview I was asked repeatedly what course I was applying for and why was I choosing Germany over an English speaking country. Then I was giving 5 economics questions and 5 mathematics questions to answer and that was it. I was asked when I intend to travel as well. I was called on the 14TH if I wanted to come pick up myself or if they should use my courier envelope. I decided to go pick up on the 15th and my visa was granted. Apart from Paulinus making things difficult, it was an easy process

What Date is the Embassy in now?

I booked September 2023.

Hannania:
Nothing yet. Dates are currently being issued
TravelRe: General-german-student-visa-enquiries Part 8 by Saraph25: 12:40am On Mar 13, 2025
Congratulations 👏

Chaigogo22:
Totally thankful to God that a journey of 28 months have ended in praise with my visa in my hands! 🙏

1. Appointment booked: Nov 6, 2022

2. Admission to TUM: Jul 13, 2023

3. Thought about deferring but then TUM introduced tuition fees after my set, deferring meant I'd join the next set to pay tuition. So, I maintained by admission by paying semester fees for 4 semesters (I almost gave up at semester 3 but God encouraged me)

4. AD came: Dec 19, 2024 (I already forgot I was waiting for AD 😂)

5. First interview: Jan, 21 2025 Was unprepared, asked to bring enrollment certificate for next semester (VO said it was an exception, I would have been sent home to start afresh)

6. Second interview: Feb 25, 2025 Completed interview, asked to submit extra documents

7. VISUM APPROVED: March 11, 2025!

It was a long 28 months of patience and trusting God's will and in the end it was worth it! Yours is the next!

Oh! Okay. Good luck on your interview.

Glowing1:
I booked it last night.
I live in the uk
So there are lot of appointments for everyday. No cat A or B here
TravelRe: General-german-student-visa-enquiries Part 8 by Saraph25: 12:08pm On Mar 07, 2025
Please When did you book your appointment?

Glowing1:
Please can you tell me all of the documents you took to the embassy. My interview is next week.
I appreciate thank you
TravelRe: General-german-student-visa-enquiries Part 8 by Saraph25: 11:34pm On Feb 26, 2025
Thank you so much for this experience and insight.
Please how did you defend this during your Interview and was your interview successful?

Chaigogo22:
In my case, my current program is in the 3rd semester and there is no online option. I maintained my enrolment by paying semester fees for all 3 semesters and doing all the other necessary things to maintain my admission cos my school introduced tuition fees immediately after my set were admitted. I think you should speak with your program adviser on the best option for you but note that when you are going to interview at the embassy you must go with a current enrolment certificate that shows your admission is valid for at least the next 4-5 months. I had to provide an enrolment certificate for the summer semester which starts in April in order to be interviewed. They rejected my ongoing enrolment certificate which would expire March 31st.
TravelRe: General-german-student-visa-enquiries Part 8 by Saraph25: 10:14am On Feb 26, 2025
I haven't gotten appointment yet. I booked on September 2023. What I'm saying is that I have enrolled for Winter semester 2024 and summer semester 2025. I didn't attend any online classes because it's not obtainable in the School. The program I am enrolled in will be in the second semester this coming Summer while I am still here in Nigeria. I applied for a leave of Absence in the Winter semester. The question now is should I apply for another leave of Absence for the 2nd time or should hold onto the enrollment like that. Note the summer is the 2nd semester of my program.

If I get appointment hopefully, what am supposed to do in this kind of situation? @Hannania

Hannania:
You've said it all. That's the best advise.
TravelRe: General-german-student-visa-enquiries Part 8 by Saraph25: 9:57pm On Feb 25, 2025
Thanks for the advice but my school didn't give me the option to study Online, both in the Past Winter semester and this coming Summer semester.
If I get appointment, what better way can I defend it during the interview?

HudsonTaylor:
The Embassy is in 17th June,possibly this week they will enter July. If your school is resuming for Summer by next month and you can attend lectures online please do,dont defer the admission again since Embassy is close to your month(if they continue with this pace). Because if you defer to winter 2025,they will call you before then. If they call you,show them prove of attending class online and ask your school for a late resumption letter or confirmation. Its still your decision to make though.
I stand to be corrected.
TravelRe: General-german-student-visa-enquiries Part 8 by Saraph25: 1:13pm On Feb 25, 2025
Please I need assistance here.

I got admitted to a Bachelor degree in Germany, I enrolled for Winter semester 2024, due to the waiting time for Visa appointment, I didn't meet up for lectures. I have been in communication with the University all this while.

I was asked by the school to apply for leave of Absence for Winter semester, which I did. They also reminded me for RE-ENROLMENT for this coming Summer semester 2025 (Second semester of my program) which I also did due to the short deadline given to me.

I booked appointment in September 2023. Will it be an issue if I also apply for another leave of Absence for the summer semester 2025?. I am really confused as I don't know if I am on the right track. I have the two semester's enrollment certificate and admission letter that was issued for Winter semester 2024.

Please I need to be sure that I am not making any mistakes. Please any advice or direction will be appreciated.

@everyone please help me.
TravelRe: General-german-student-visa-enquiries Part 8 by Saraph25: 11:51pm On Feb 22, 2025
Please I need more clarification from this. I have my NPC Birth date certificate and I got it in 2023 and I was already above 18 years. What does the part

"otherwise" "Certified copy of the local birth register extract based on the first registration"

Please can someone help me explain it in details and where I can get that. Thanks in advance.
