Goodday all gurus in the house ,
Pls during the cause of AD issue around aug., I mail my sch for EXTENSION/deferment. And I got this mail. Now I have Interview on the 16th. Using dec2 as start date after several rebooking without date.
Just curious of my chances,and the start date to use during interview etc. tho I have done the online enrollment.

Dear Mr XYZ,
Online enrollment must be done before 30th September, 2019 if you want to enroll for this winter semester.

The latest day for personal enrollment is Dec 2nd. After 2nd of December 2019, personal enrollment will no longer be possible.



In addition, please note that the Dairy Science lectures start at October 21, 2019.

In up to 4 of 5 courses of the winter semester participation in the first lecture in October is mandatory!

Late arrival does not exempt you from these prerequisites. If you do not participate, you will not be allowed to do the exam, which will then prolong your overall study time.



Hence, enrollment until 17th of October 2019 is highly recommended!


The other possibility would be to start your studies next year.

Please be aware that we cannot postpone the current admission, i.e. you will have to hand in a new application. We also cannot guarantee that you will be admitted again next year, but the chances are in general good if you had been admitted this year.
When going for your interview please try and print the letter or mail from the school. attach it with you AL. From the date of your interview, its most likely that your study may be prolong which is no problem. This is because of the compulsory course stated in the mail.
I will advice you again to write the school immediately and tell them of your interview date which implies that you will be coming late. Request for an official letter from them which you can submit to the embassy since its late. If they do, attach that letter with your AL on your AD. If they dont, still used the mail sent you as stated
Best wishes in your interview. try and gather all requirement and prepare very well
It will end in Praise

Pls how did you know alien office approved? Because they don't mention that @builderperry ... They just say they have sent their comments and pls contact the embassy
Mikeycoleone:
I got this
(I have just submitted my statement to the German diplomatic mission the foreign mission will decide on the visa application and inform you afterwards .. I ask you to be patient till then...best regards)
After the foreign office finish processing, they send back to the embassy. It is the embassy that will give you the final decision whether it is approved or not. the alien office can tell you the decision.
Same happen for him. Just pray and expect to hear from the consulate soon
Best wishes

Yes, someone did. But I need a little more clarification. I've seen two guys (above 30) who were rejected. They were told they are not sure their intentions is genuinely to study. Heard this is a recent development though, that's why I'm asking for more clarification especially from HND holders in the house
They were not able to convince the VO of their intentions. It has nothing to do with age. Get a good motivation letter, resume and all requirements and you are good to go

I sent it to the email since September like up to 3times consecutively.. I decided to send it through dhl on Tuesday n its was refused... The alien office mail I got online I have sent several mails to them but no response. Pls can u assist me to get the email of the alien office in Stuttgart.
If you sent on the 1st it means it may have gotten there on 3rd which was holiday since dhl takes 2 working days to deliver within Nigeria. Why not try sending again or inform dhl to resend
Mind you wont get a feedback after sending by email.
search through this site and you will get the email adress of the alien in your city https://www.stuttgart.de/en

Please I seriously want to encourage us with the of Google in getting whatever information you may need. All you need to do is type whether word or sentence and search. If you don't get exactly what you are looking for, re-phrase and for sure you will either get it or something close to it. By so doing it makes learning quick. Most questions asked here are just ones that answers are just readily available, but people cant just take a step of finding it. In this Jet age. I keep wondering how some persons will survive in Germany. Don't wait to be spoon fed, research and add knowledge.

Afternoon guys. I booked appointment at the embassy for certification of document but I didn't know I'm supposed to come with application form. Now some of the schools I am applying to have not open for application yet. Can I download any application form available even for programs I am not interested in and fill for now. Then when those schools are open I can use the certified documents for them.

On one school is open at the moment and I want to avoid going to the embassy just to certify one set of application.
Make sure you dont do what will affect you tomorow, relax and wait for the school to open and get the desired form. Using another form is very BAD. If your school permits other certification, you can use the court or notary
Avoid fraudulent acts!!!

Good morning family...
1.. Pls for those born b4 1992, is affidavit of age declaration from high court sufficient as birth certificate?? pls show me a sample if u have.
2..is two passport photographs okay to take to embassy, pls should it be red/white background, pls what should d size be or what does biometric specification mean??
It is stated either BC or AD. The declaration must be deposed to by a family head. Go to the court in your location and tell them you want to do Age declaration.
Must sure you go with more than 2 passport as it will cost you nothing should they request for addition
everything you need to know about the passport biometric specification.

I beg you all please stop indicating any interest to stay in germany for a period more than the partcular study you are going for in the Visa Application, be it for Further Studies or anything. even when the VO tries to convince you to further ur studies, convince her/ him how your intention after ur study is to come back and get a Job or start up something. A friend was denied Visa also because he stated his intention to proceed with his PhD. NO! The Embassy expects you to finish one study, return to ur home country and not applying for further studies and scholarships. Please desist from that Trap
Thats absolute not true!! your staying back all depends on the motive. They know there are genuine reasons of which PhD is one. Let your your plans after studies in your motivation letter correspond also to what you tell the VO
In ma case, I clear told the vo that i will want to continue with PhD after my studies. He asked where and I told him either in Germany, Austria or Switzerland. This is because the impact I want to make in my country, the master degree is not enough to give me the technical/scientific knowledge.
There are also instances where you can tell them after study, You will like to work or do research to gain more experience that you take back to your country. In this case you need to back up with good SOP and good explanation.

From my university

Dear Mr A,

I managed to talk to the visa office in Hamburg today. It took a while until the German Embassy forwarded your application to them and currently they can’t do anything because the embassy told them that you didn’t have a blocked account at the time of your visa interview. Once the German Embassy has proof of your blocked account, they will forward the information to the visa office in Hamburg and then they can further process your application. I will call them again in the second week of October, hopefully they will have heard from the German Embassy by then.

Do you have a blocked account now? It is very important because otherwise you won’t get your visa.

Best regards

I sent my blocking confirmation on the 4th, I think I will resend again



Its really not matter of block account I repeat again. Did you submit the BA opening confirmation? I f no that where the problem lies. If yes I will be surprise in your case
We are both of same school, I got my AM without funding. Infact on ma AD, I didn't have the BA opening confirmation but the VO asked me to get it immediately and submit b4 9am which I did
Did You submit the opening confirmation then?
Try and send to the Alien and the enbassy quickly

I got this message from the Alien Office

Dear Bleep,

 

Your request from the embassy was received by us on 05.09.2019. The application documents will be processed after receipt of the application. You will receive a message from the diplomatic mission once the process is completed.

 

With best regards

I funded my account on the 4th, I guess they didn't process my application further until they got the blocking confirmation. I am not sure though

Make I no expect any AM this week bedat. I don dey relieved small
Thegamingorca:



This is why funding prior to the interview is of advantage
Funding is not the issue here. we are both going to same school in Hamburg. I received my AM without funding in the 4th week. There is something wrong somewhere. From the message, I can deduce that they have only notify the alien office maybe by email and the documents are yet to get to them.
I know of someone that after a long time, they didnt send his document to the alien office. After series of pressure(calls and mail) to them, the alien office had to request his documents from the embassy. He has gotten his AM
Its just to keep praying cos it will end in praise
