Eke40seven:
Did I ever mention that anywhere? or did I disclose it to you in private?
Bros no fall hand na!.

But you posted your interview on Nov 29, and I think it was very powerful.

*EDIT*
Went through your posts again. HOW IN THE WORLD DID IT NOT HAPPEN??

Eke40seven:
Oga sir I have been busy lately and PHCN is not helping issues at all.
When I get home this night I will look into it sir.
Bear with me!

Are you not supposed to be in G-land?

hollaytan:

Wasn't that last week? Or do you mean next year





Eke40seven I still dey wait you sir.

Good day boss. You've got mail.

cahnellven:
I think that ETCS conversion requirements is applicable only in your programme of choice, cos it wasn't stated anywhere in the online application form of my prospective programme.
Though I'm not entirely sure,but 1 year of study =60 ECTS, you can base your conversion on that .
In Nigeria, one credit unit is equal to one weekly hour class and one three laboratory weekly hour ( if applicable) .
You can also use the aforesaid system as credible explanation of your credit system.
Best of luck

Thanks. Sucks for me though. I'm applying to Computer science (MSc). What about you?

cahnellven:
About to apply ,and i'll be using the online platform . I've already checked the application protocol and it looked pretty straightforward .No complications whatsoever .there are a lot of fields to be filled and a single pdf upload comprising of all your documents.
Are you encountering any difficulties?

I don't understand the part where they said your transcript must be converted to the ECTS system else your application will be rejected. I even mailed them and they said the same thing. Also said if that's not possible, I should upload an official document explaining our credit system... That's the part I don't get. Don't know where to get that official document as my school said that cannot be done. Other than that, the application procedure is quite straightforward. Knowing that the program I'm going for is not restricted, I want to get everything right so as to have a 100% chance of being accepted.

Thanks.

cahnellven:
I am a prospective student cos I'll be applying to the school
Any problem?

Have you already applied? Did you use the online application platform?

Please someone should help me out here oh! Is there anyone in University of Bonn, or a prospective student

[quote author=Eke40seven post=31024478][/quote]Still awaiting your mail... Thanks

Ndyoo:
The registrar of your university has an authority to write the letter too...try go to your admin block and get it from them. It will serve as well...

Thanks. Was @ my school today. Seems I can get it from E&R for 5k

Qn:
During World War I, the allies, Britain, France, the USA primarily fought against Germany & which 2 major forces?

Italy and Japan. Although, after Mussolini was ousted, Italy joined forces with the allies... They were still sanctioned after the war though.

hadassaheke:
Tnx @ williamso, but i wanted advise on whether to go for masters in physics or geophysics. Pls house am still waiting o

Alright. That goes beyond me...

@Eke40seven, just tried sending you a PM...

hadassaheke:
hello house am new here, but i have been following and reading the threads quietly.
I graduated from futo last yr from physics dept n il like to do my masters in physics or geophysics come 2016 by God's Grace in but i dont really know which to go for considering the job situation in naija. Pls beloved NL i need advise from every1 o,eke46,etc. Also advise as to d school dat is best for the course. Thanks.

I doubt if any school's admission for 2016 will be up by now (I may be wrong though). Admission for 2015 Winter semester in most schools is currently on going, but it's good to make hay while the sun shines.

Considering schools, course of study, etc, you'll get (almost) all the information you need from daad.de/en
Hope this helps...

Hello
I read your post concerning doing your master program in Hamburg and want to go with your wife and a kid.
My question as someone,who's in Hamburg over a year now, What's your plan after your master program? Do you want to work and reside here? or go back to naija? Am asking this question before i can give my own opinion.
Cheers

I also intend on doing my Masters in Hamburg (No wife, no kids). How's life there as a student and as a Masters degree holder? If I choose to stay back, what's in store for me WRT securing a "graduate-level" job.

Hello house, please I need someone to help me review my letter of intent, after all, 2 heads are better than one, let alone the many intelligent heads on this thread... Thanks

Sweet exam. Abstract na die shaa, but God pass them...

pompido:
Thanks a bunch Williamso, I just need a clearer picture and what to expect going forward. My guess will be that getting a positive report to move to the next stage kind of increases the chance of getting admitted as the number of applications to consider is now lesser than before the report.

Appreciate your input.

Yes you can look at it that way. Reduced number of applicants = Increased probability of getting admission.
But take note that this is not the official selection process, so applicants that will be weeded out will be VERY few...

pompido:
Hello House,

Great greetings to all the ogas at the top (justwise, nevilbot,eke40seven and others), i dey hail oo.

I have been silently following this thread and have read most of thread 1 and of course up to date on thread 2.

I have applied to a couple of universities (online) and only need to send my documents which is being delayed because I want to send a recent transcript instead of the one i have which is dated a couple of years ago.

I would really like anyone with experience in the admission process of Uni of Stuttgart to enlighten me because after applying online (Info Tech, MSc), I was contacted that I scaled the first phase and that I only send a pdf copy of my transcript which i did (CGPA 3.71). I was then emailed that a decision report will be sent on or around March 1, 2015 which will indicate qualification to the next stage or disqualification. I did send them a mail today to try and figure out if the decision will mean admittance pending documentation and others or if it is simply to qualify to another evaluation stage. This is why i need anyone that is familiar with their process to shine more light.

I also did ask if they have gotten my TOEFL (scored 107) report from ETS but they just left out that part because I am hoping that my TOEFL will also add more butter to my bread at their end.

I am married and will be hoping to have my family (wife (B.Sc Bus. Admin) and toddler son) tag along because 2 years is too long a time to be away from them ooo. From responses to Sekinat's questions, I see that a total of 16,100euros is needed in block account (correct or not?) to cover for all Dependants.My question is that if I can provide the money, is it doable to have my family come along with me (if all goes as plan by God's grace)?

I submitted to Stuttgart, Offenburg, TUM and Hamburg for now. I would also like a bit of analysis on the four and what my chances are at first glance.

Thanks to everyone that has been contributing to this thread, God bless.

I can help with the bolded. Others can help with the unbolded, or even complement my post.

The decision report you will get around March 1st is not an offer of admission, but simply a decision that you can progress to the next stage. This next stage involves sending hard (certified where necessary) copies of Motivation letter, degree certificate, transcript, reference letter(s), etc for the admission process.

Your TOEFL will definitely add more juice to your application. They also accept letter of Language of Instruction from your university. You can be offered provisional admission without any language certificate at all, though you will still have to present it before the enrollment deadline else you will forfeit the admission.

Rayhut:
yes, I applied for a masters course, their toefl and ielts is compulsory

Maybe it is for the course you chose, but Nigeria is exempt for mine. But that's not my concern.

I'm also a prospective Masters student. Did you use the online application system?

Please is there any current or prospective student here in University of Bonn?

Good evening y'all. First post on this thread, and it's wishing everyone going for the test tomorrow success... Especially PH candidates

Pls, you guys should reduce your demand for PQs. I mean, it's supposed to be an aptitude test, and if you need PQs to pass such, it says a lot about your aptitude. My opinion though, no offense intended.

Good luck to us all.

Obiwannn:
lol . I feel or pain bro.
had same complaints from my frustratingly useless school.
even had to go to the exams and records of my mumu scgool where it cost me 1k. per language of instruction doc issued
applied for 4 L of instruction since December. till now no show.
I just vwx go write ielts make dem enemies of progress. carry their wahala De go.

Didn't know E&R could do that... Will head there tomorrow (today)... Thanks mate!!

dolpaz:
Ja Genau, (Yes, exactly)

Its almost the same as German Arbitur !

Thanks. Thank you very much.

dolpaz:
Means your University 100 level result/transcript

Attested can also be referred to as true copy with stamps and signature.

Alles Gute !

Uncle dolpaz, please is it the same thing as Arbitur (dunno if I spelled it right)?

dolpaz:
Approach your departmental secretary, try tipping him/her explaining why you need such and its importance.

He may help you with it.

Already done that. He has no problem typing it, but my HOD says he won't sign it...

or better still, go to the ministry of education to get a proficiency certificate.

Regards !

I guess I may be left with no other option

ehcenihc:
@ williamso for the language of instruction , you can be issued a certificate at the ministry iof education but it will cost you nothing less than 10k

HOLY F***!!! That's too much naa... Thanks for the tip though...

Good evening wonderful people. Been a while and hope y'all enjoyed your valentine

Anyone here undergoing a Masters program in Universitaet Bonn? I have a serious issue here. The application is online and they insist the transcript must be converted to the ECTS system or my application will be rejected, which my frustratingly useless school said is impossible . I don't know if anyone here can help with any (official) document from anywhere explaining the credit system in Nigeria.

Also, my HOD from the same frustratingly useless school has blatantly told me he is not giving me any letter stating the language of instruction (an alternative to the language tests). Does anyone know any walk-around to this (excluding taking the TOEFL and IELTS tests)?
Please I need your urgent replies as deadlines are approaching.

Thanks.

adenjnr:
I would advice you write the course coordinator. He/she will be in the best position to tell you if your project is up to that.

Will do...

adenjnr:
Please lets ignore this guy with the issue.lets move forward and not derail the thread.
.@,williamso
A semester in Nigeria is 30ects so if your degree is 4years which is 8semester, multiply 8 with 30 that will give you 240ects and if your degree is five years, do the calculation as above. It doesnt depend on school, a semester in Nigeria is 30 ects in Germany.

Thanks a lot. The part that really perplexed me was where they said your project must have been at least 10 credits (according to their ECTS), and my project was 6 credit units.

DanIndia:
No, Nigeria does not use the ECTS system. There is a formula which you can use to calculate the number of hours achieved(this could include practical lab classes, number of hours attended and exams) and you can get the number equivalent to ECTS credits. And by the way, a much simpler way is this. A proper full academic year is equivalent to 60 ECTS (Again, this depends on the college attended)

Thanks a lot. I attended Uniport. You said there's a formula. Do you have it? Or do you know where I can get it online? Google is not being friendly...
