Swiss, please did you apply via uni-assist? What's the maximum amount of schools will I be permitted to using uni-assist? And lastly, is it safe to apply directly online or uniassist considering summer application?

Please anyone who has got answers to this can help me out.

i did not appy tru uniassist as d school doesn't require it.

2. as many schools as u want. charges are included

3. some schools require u apply tru uniassist, while odaz, u can apply directly to d school free of charge.

Uzee24:
Goodmorning House!

This Canada visa process gets tiring by the day. As much as I try not to let it get more than the thought it deserves, I cant help but still worry.
My app has been in process since May. Eligibility review started early June and till now no update. My CSE was replied by the Kenya Visa Office with the usually response that my app is under active review and since then nothing.


My dilemma right now is that I have a Visa interview at the German embassy by month end, and my passport is being held by the canada office. I wouldnt want to withdraw my app, but then, I also wouldnt want to miss the interview at the German embassy if Canada wouldnt grant me a visa. Its a tough call for me at this point but I think I should still give them some time before taking any steps.


So y'all June/July applicants, I think U need to take a chill pill cos May guyz are observing from a corner.

having similar issue. so confused

What they needed were soft copies of my documents, no mention of certifying anything. FAU was advanced materials and processes, and Bremen was materials chemistry and mineralogy. I think the problem is that people just want info sharp sharp and are not putting in enough effort. I spent days going through each school's requirements on daad.de eliminating those that didn't favour me, before settling for these 3. Having spent some money earlier chasing the 'Canadian dream' grin, I knew I had to work hard to make this one click, with the little funds I had. I will advice others to do same. The benefit of starting your search on time.

Am still waiting for my admission letter for unibremen. Space science and technology. do u knw if anyone has gotten admission in dat course?

Eke40seven:

Be careful where you do your notary, check out the stipulated methods to make sure it fits the description and standard in Germany.
Always make sure there is a seal with an emblem and not just "text stamps"
The date and name of the notary or person who checked it.
Be sure that it is signed.

Preferably the stamp is embossed. Although the best is the one from the embassy, no one rejects it but in case you are leaving far, make sure that you engage a notary to will ensure that all is taken care of. Once you find the right notary, have as many blatts as possible in case of further applications.

True. bt i did mine at a fedral high court and it was accepted. thanks anyway

I applied for the visa interview on the 13th of June 2018 and got a reply on 19th of June (after 6 days of applying) with my Abuja address (Which is the same address on my admission letter). i got a date for 4th of July 2018 for 10:30am

I Arrived the embassy at about 10:15
Arranged my document at the entrance before stepping in to Almighty Counter 1
Interviewer --Hand me your documents please
Interviewer-- Hand me the originals and the passport
Interviewer--(checks if my application form is properly filled) Opens a file and attached my documents

Interviewer--Have you founded your account?
Answer--Not yet but i have the naira equivalent in my account and i have already started processing it
Interviewer--(brings four documents for me to sign, which is a declaration that i will fund and send via a provided email, otherwise application will not b e processed(

I jejely signed everything.

Interviewer-- Let me have ur visa fee
I handed the money, she kept asking about my work experience and all, typing as we talked. ( In my tiny head, i was already feeling good, is this the interview? so am done like this like this....Until the big question landed)

Interviewer--Do you want your interview in German or English
Me-- ( My own has finished lipsrsealed ) 40 minutes gone and we are just getting started

Interviewer--Why this Course
Interviewer--Why Germany, why not US or any other English speaking country?
Interviewer--What do u know about Germany? Politically, economically and her people
Interviewer--What do you Intend to do after graduation
Interviewer--Tell me about your school, discuss the modules of your intended course

As i answered, she typed word to word. i was practically dictating.
Long story Short, she collected my passport, handed me my receipt and said ..........I wish you good luck.

Caution, she has zero tolerance for slow people, u have be prompt in everything.




congrats man

are they collecting passport now, or itz just abuja embassy that does dat?
