Germany: common questions
A German blocked account holds a set amount of money that you can only draw down monthly once you arrive, proving you can support yourself. The required amount is reviewed each year. Setting it up correctly and early is essential — we guide you through it.
Nigerian applicants must have their academic documents verified by the APS office before a German student visa can be issued. It takes time, so we start it as early as possible in your application.
Not necessarily. Many master's programmes are taught entirely in English. However, learning some German significantly improves your part-time work and post-study employment prospects, and we will say so honestly.
