Loving the outdoor shots! Germany looks pretty and I can't wait to travel there when school goes back to face to face. Only concern is the cold! Lol!
You’ll be just fine, just make some friends before you come 😊
Great video guys!
Must watch for everyone
Thank you, Mich!
Great content Michael
Thanks Evalsam! Appreciate your feedback.
Hello. Great content. Kindly change the country icon from Belgium to Germany
Hi, Itepu.
We have done so accordingly. Thank you for pointing that out.
Great observation.
Great!
Thank you!
Seems German embassy in Nigeria isn't scheduling appointments for study visa, gotta any idea, of what is the cause?
We’re not sure what the reason could be, we just know that they have increased the requirements for securing a student visa; giving preference to PhD and first class students.
Perhaps it’s time to look at other EU countries that offer free education for international students.
@@OfficialJapa.Travel all right bro, thanks for the insight
@@OfficialJapa.Travel does that mean undergraduate doesn't have a chance 🙄🙄
Not exactly; it depends on the school and course that you apply for. Also remember that there are preparatory programs too designed for undergraduates.
Any time! Always happy to help.

I need help on how to apply for admission in Germany
You can contact us to help facilitate the process. Check our contact details here on the channel.
Hello thanks for this video.
I have a question....
After the application deadline how long did it take before you were notified about your enrolment?
It could be anywhere from 4 to 8 weeks.
I want to ask;
I graduated with a degree in Political science BSc (2015) with a GPA of 3.04 on a 5 scale. I want to study Masters in Social Work in Germany. Will I be eligible for the MSW Social Work program in Germany?
- Does German universities accept foreign graduates like myself with physical disability (deformity on the left arm) for social work programs?
- Are there English taught courses for social work programs in German universities?
- Which German universities are good options for studies even if it means learning the German language?
- What is the level of estimate for international students in learning German language?
Hi Chukwuemeka,
Very good questions.
Yes you will be eligible to study Masters in Social Work in Germany.
The issue with your left arm won’t affect your acceptance to study here; so do not worry about it. If there’s anything, it will increase your chances.
Since Social Work mostly involves dealing with the locals, I’d imagine that some level of the German language proficiency would be needed.
You may have to check online to know which universities are offering the courses, and what the specific language requirements are. We provide some on our website (see link in our bio) but you may need to explore bigger platforms like the DAAD website.
Feel free to contact me directly if you need any further assistance.
Hi Destiney...I schooled in your state FUTO in Owerri. Please I need to get clarification about sending TRANSCRIPT to uni assist... my school do not give ORIGINAL OFFICIAL TRANSCRIPT to students. They ONLY send it to the INSTITUTION requesting for it in STAMPED SEALED ENVELOPE.. They only give students a copy called "STUDENT TRANSCRIPT COPY" . Student copy comes in plain white paper.....my question now is ....can I use that student copy as my original to make photocopy for notarization/certification? Or should my school forward it themself to uni assist sealed?
You can use the student transcript copy. Uni-assist understands that student can’t get the official copy.
During my application in 2014, I also used the student transcript copy; notarized it in Owerri (in a law firm in Douglas road 😁) and sent it to Uni-assist.
So you are on the right track.
If you are applying to multiple locations on Germany, you can use our Euro Dispatch service to save cost of the delivery. Let me know if you’re interested.
@@OfficialJapa.Travel thanks a mill for that info....once am set to mail I will sure contact u. How can I contact you privately.

Hello
Hi 🙋
Thanks for the info guys.
Please, I need your guidance. I dropped out of the university few years ago, so the only certificate I have is Neco obtained in 2008. I'm looking to start afresh abroad. Europe or anywhere else and I'm 30 year old. How do I start as I can seem to find a way forward please?
Thanks alot for your time t
Hey Bisem,
Thanks for reaching out and for nicely describing your situation.
First of all, age doesn’t matter when it comes to education or choosing a path in life.
There are multiple options for you to take it up from where you stopped; my first question would be, what exactly do you want now; study (have a degree), learn a trade/profession, or work abroad? Your answer will help me give you some good suggestions.
In any case, you should know that it is possible to continue your degree in Germany using your transcript, provided you studied for at least one year before dropping out.
Alternatively, Germany offers the opportunity to learn a profession that will get you into the career force in Germany; a prerequisite would be to understand the language.
So, let me know what exactly you want :)
Thanks alot for the prompt reply.
I'm looking to start afresh which would require me learning the language up to B1, but you mentioned I can continue provided I get the transcript which would be nice. Will there be a need for the proficiency test? I've started A1 already but considering the time factor.
And what steps should I take?
Thanks a whole lot. I do appreciate and I'm not taking it for granted. 🙏🙏
@@bisembisem2077 all good :)
I am happy to help.
The options I mentioned above are two:
1. Continuing your studies: you’d need your transcript from your previous university. Depending on the course that you want to study here, it may require German knowledge or not. There are Bachelors programs offered 100% in English language and some universities may waive test of English and things like that.
2. Vocational training (Ausbildung) in German: this is like studying and working at the same time. The major requirement is a secondary school qualification (which you have) and German language proficiency (which you will need to have). You can take up courses/programs in literally any discipline - you name it.
So that’s why I said it depends on what you want. In Germany, the second option is also recognized as a formal Education and you can work professionally after the training which lasts for three years.
🙏 I'd love to continue my studies, with the option of working whilst studying, (the 20 hour week rule in Europe).
I Studied Surveying and Geoinformatics. and would love to continue if possible, but if I'm starting afresh, I'm looking to change to Business Administrations.
Do I still need the B1 for these options or I can start applications?
Thank you
@@bisembisem2077 what you will need would depend on the school - it’d be on a case by case basis.
I’d recommend you joined this study and work abroad community, SetLinn:
setlinn.com/welcome/
My team and I are also active there. We could connect you with some students in Germany, so you may be assured directly. Just keep in mind that the requirements and way to go would be on a case by case basis - that means, you find the school/course, then check their requirements and if they accept transcript transfer from abroad.
Guy how I get you privately?
Thanks
You will see our different contact details, including email address, here on this channel. Just check the about section.
Pls how can I enroll in a mechanic school in Germany
Which course and degree are you interested in?
I would study bachelors of engineering In Germany, how do I go about it?
You can use our website to check for your desired study program and see the requirements.
We have listed courses from different fields, including Engineering, offered in English language.
How is Germany not agricultural? Are you sure you are in Germany?
Lol 😂
We are, just that in comparison to the Netherlands, they really are not.
Or what do you think?
@@OfficialJapa.Travel bearing in mind that nothing but grass and tulips grow in the Netherlands and while they have a huge surplus and are among the biggest agricultural exporters, this pretty much is limited to livestock/meat and diary...while Germany has a vast variety of crops growing...I'm not sure where you are based now (you said you are in the countryside) but maybe you did spend too much time in Dortmund, which I guess doesn't have too much agriculture. But it would be the same for me saying Nigeria doesn't have agriculture after visiting Lagos and Abuja and ignoring Jos or Benue.
@@christiandengler6689 you are 💯% right; my location limited my knowledge in that aspect.
Thanks for the enlightenment :)
@@OfficialJapa.Travel come to think of it...it wasn't even you that said that, it was the girl you interviewed, no?!
anyway, like what you are doing, keep it up! Do you have a business around this or just for fun?
Are you allowed to work as a student in Germany?
Yes, you’re allowed to work 240 half days or 120 full days :)
Pls which university is suitable for undergrads student.
In Germany
It depends on your study program of interest. Which course do you want to study?
@@OfficialJapa.Travel health sciences.
Biotechnology, public health
I am thinking of abadoning my current degree to start all over again in Germany, what do you think ?
Would I be able to afford it ?
It depends on your reason for doing it, and also how far you have gone in your study; so, you have to decide if it’s worth it or not.
I’d recommend learning about the opportunities available for international students in Germany (check my video on that) first, so you can compare what you currently have vs. what you want to go for.
How do you mean ‘afford it’?
Studies here is 💯% tuition free - you only have to show proof of taking care of your living expenses.
A quick question..pls reply me...cos I'm getting kinda confused...I graduated with a second class upper in my bachelors degree via biology Education..is it possible to study pure biometry(not under education) for my masters program
Yes, it is 100% possible. Your degree under 'Education' is not a limitation for a Master's degree abroad.
So, where would you like to study?
@@OfficialJapa.Travel You mean I can study pure Biostatitics (Biometry) even though I have my first degree in Education...If yes...I used the daad website and it matches with the university of Bremen,,I don't know how to start about application and much about the school...I checked the school website but it's kinda confusing,if you have any school or any other suggestion,pls help me with one..Thanks a lot
An interesting one I must say! The outdoor shot is a good improvement. She Should set her job notifications on LinkedIn, there are pretty many of such positons I've seen there. Wishing her the best.
Waiting for Part 2.
Thank you for the kind comment, Elvis!
Will pass your feedback to her; am sure she’d appreciate it:)
Part II coming out next week 💪🏾
Well that's discouraging for students who want to come to Germany to study agriculture. I know around lower Saxony and Lower Bavaria they are really into farming of crops and animals
True, but there are still many other options 🤗

Yes, I have gotten admission to Germany with second class lower. Can't wait to start
@@Chriscycaay what university and course?
Hi, please what is this transcript she mentioned in the video? I plan to apply in two years and I'm learning German with Duolingo while waiting. I want to prepare my documents and I guess the transcript has something to do with secondary school results.
Is Waec enough?
Hello Amarachi,
She talked about the transcript of her Bachelor’s degree in Nigeria. WAEC result is not accepted as a university entrance qualification in Germany. You may need a foundation or preparatory course to study in a German university.
It’s good that you are already planing ahead and are learning the German language. Do you plan to study in German language?
Hello sir, please I need your help. I had an ND in civil engineering from the federal polytechnic and I am presently living in Germany. Can I used my ND diploma for bachelor study in Germany here. I saw some engineering courses in English. Ur answer go a long way to help me.
Generally speaking, it won’t be possible. But there are some schools that may waive this standard requirement: Germany doesn’t recognize OND (from Nigeria) as a university entrance qualification.
You may email us more details of your status in Germany and we can recommend the best options to get into the university.
