Dear all, I am pleased to inform you that I received my A.M around 10am yesterday after I sent my blocking confirmation last week Friday 13th July. I want to use this opportunity to thank and appreciate everyone in this wonderful group for the timely information and motivation. I pray that we receive more of this good news reign in this group.

Finally, Although I have posted my interview transcript few days after my interview but I think I also need to point that student who are not funding before the interview should be careful on the document they print for confirmation of opening of blocked account to avoid the same mistake I made. Confirmation of blocked account opening should be just 2 pages rather than what contract details I printed.

Let's stay positive and motivated

God bless us
Congratulations....what date was your interview?

I had an interview last week and the three persons who went in before me (masters students) were given a test, one in particular said a math test and the course he was going for wasn't even science related I guess he called it international management. in fact they spent longer time and came out sweating.
I'd say be prepared for anything.
Please share your questions asked by VO. Is important to everyone here pls.

Hi, Razor blade. Which country are you going to enter and get things easy peezy?. You want the negative reports fine but also look at positive then weigh your opinions. I am applying bcoz I have a friend there that has told me both sides and he believes coming to Germany is better.

I don't know Carlos Paul or you but I know the person living in Germany.
Razor if you don't want to go fine but one thing is certain, if e hard for a Nigerian, we always find another place to go and get what we want.

What kills a man is fear and what makes a man stronger is overcoming any obstacle. Didn't you die for your girlfriend that rejected you, No!, you moved on.


razorblade:
Have you or anyone you know regretted going abroad for higher education?

Carlos Paul, a full scholarship student with a Masters and PhD from Germany

Yes, very much. Not studying abroad, in itself, which gave me a wealth of experience.

But taking GERMANY to do a Masters, and then a PhD.

This is a country

That moans about immigrants but won t give the most qualified, those who have German degrees, even as prestigious as a PhD, a realistic chance. If You’re Considering Graduate School in Germany
Your years spend here count for nothing. You basically go and beg immigration to give more time. I have been here for more than seven years and I am in the same position as when I first landed in Germany. n spite of my degrees, my scholarships, my fluent German, my talents, I might have to go back to the hell hole I escaped from years ago.
German universities spend millions trying to attract students. What they don t tell you is that they think it is technology transfer. You are supposed to return to your god forsaken hole of a country and teach the natives how to do things. Please, don t fall for this scam. You are better off doing a Masters in the most prestigious university in your own country and then applying for a PhD in a country that will give you immigrant status. Come only if you are offered a good scholarship, and then use that to apply to PhDs in universities in countries that will give you permanent residence far more easily.
Don t fall for the myth that STEM students have it easier. They face the same barriers of broken immigration system, a xenophobic recruitment policy and alienation from mainstream society. Why do you think that after decades of sponsoring foreign students Germany does not have a single CEO/successful entrepreneur who came as an international student?
ATTN MASTERS STUDENTS If you are a top non EU student and the professor is actively encouraging you to pursue a PhD in Germany, RUN. Use her/his goodwill to get a great recommendation letter for another country. She/He is doing it because, increasingly, the professor’s funding for PhD programs is conditional on the internationalization of the program. Once you complete the PhD the professor will do nothing to help you stay on and instead will actively encourage you to return to your home country so that you can create more networks for him/her and German graduate programs. If you want to be sure ask her or him if she or he will help you stay on permanently after your studies. Germans are generally honest—you ll either get a commitment, or much, much more likely, a refusal. If she or he blabbers about the 1.5 years post graduation to find a job, good recommendations etc, that s a NO. RUN!!. It could save years of your life.
I am sick of a broken system where professors and the university administration spends millions sending delegations to seduce students, where DAAD has its own offices and minions to spread the propaganda, where the actual teaching is done by poorly paid PhD candidates or docents (PhD s who can t find academic jobs but are connected to the university on a freelance basis)
I am sick of a rotten system where professors are civil servants who cannot be sacked and one professor may have over 35 PhDs working under him/her while he/she jet sets around the world luring more students and creating tie ups to bring in even more. Do you even think that he or she even reads your chapters?!
Your language skills count for nothing. It only gives you an year off the time required towards citizenship, but that s only if you have a permanent residence. No points for fluent German.Even if you speak German you are an auslander. Many interviews will be conducted in German, and many ads for computer engineers or even English teachers will demand fluent C2 level German!!!
You are given a job search visa but it comes with so many conditions. You have to show 8,000 euros in a blocked account. You have to show a job otherwise. If you can manage to get a job in a call center or Amazon do you think they ll give you leave to go look for a job?! And the Amazon or call center job won t get you permanent residence because you don t need a PhD, or even a masters to do that! So after 1.5 years you are out. Germany should be honest. Tell the world they don t want non EU immigrants even highly educated ones.
In sum, while I don t regret studying abroad I regret studying in a country where nothing but my passport actually counts. All it has given me is constant stress leading to severe depression.

]The average CRS score that has been invited to apply for sometime now is above 440. And since u maxed out IELTS, i think il advice u consider going thru provincial nominee program (PNP) as this gives u additional 600points.

Please do a research on this to know better and help decide which Province u will consider.

My humble opinion, but our elders here might advice better.

Good luck!



Thank you so much.... Is Alberta easy to go through or which is easiest for mechanical engineer?.

My bad... Don't be upset but got to get things straight

Hubby as PA - 408
You as PA - 413.
This is assuming you both max out on IELTS scores.

So getting over 400 is okay? Or not good?

He wants to be principal applicant. A mechanical engineer Bsc aged 36 and I am 35, mathematics bsc graduate with only 4-years oil and gas experience that ended 2 years ago.

Good morning everyone,

please:

1. Should I apply for my 3-year old daughter to travel with me or I should leave without her for now?.

Taking into consideration that she also has an American passport.

2. Since she has the passport, should I go with her then apply for residence for her in Germany?

I applied to University of Applied science, Mittweida for winter session 2018.

TravelRe: General German Student Visa Enquiries Part 4 by Yobaby:
Good evening everyone,

I have got few questions please and is as follows:

1. Am married and can't go without my husband and child, please what would you advice ?.

2. How much do we have to put into DB account that is sufficient for a family like mine, which the embassy would be okay with?

3. My husband wants to write a B1 German exam,would that be OK because I read we have to state from beginning that the spouse wants to work?

4. Read also, spouse has to specify the sort of work being sort after?.

5. He read mechanical engineering but has 8years experience in oil and gas then he is now a technical sales manager in same field but wants to do a professional exam in project management. Is this a good move?.

Please your options would be most appreciated.
