Please can I reach out to you?

slysite4real:
By implication, they think your purpose of going to Estonia is not to study.
I wish all you applicants success.

As an advice, please do not sell/give up your means of livelihood (job, business, apartment) in Nigeria until you receive your Estonian visa. The possibility of a rejection is high. Last year, the Estonian embassy in Cairo, Egypt, rejected about two-thirds of all Schengen visa applications.

Even if you get a visa to study in Estonia, again the possibility of staying after your studies is low. Now you need an employer who is willing to sponsor your residence permit (PhD students excluded). Many employers are not willing to do this. And your stay (residence permit) is usually tied to that job. Only after 3 years of working can you qualify for the residence permit which does not require employer sponsorship (if the law does not change again).

If you would like to stay in Estonia after your studies, I will advice you to start learning Estonian language as soon as you arrive.

And finally, if you get a chance to study in Estonia, make sure to graduate within the nominal duration of your program (on time).

My "view offer" is taken out.

Pls add me to the LSS group. Thanks
