My German VISA experience | Chennai consulate | Guest post | Winter 2017

chennai consulate, german, visa, consulate, chennai


My visa experience in Chennai consulate:

My  Visa appointment date was on Sept 1st,  the visa charges were revised as Rs.5600 and mentioned in the German consulate website, but unfortunately they said that there was some mistake in the site  and we were informed that the actual charges are around Rs.5700 and told to change the DD.


My visa appointment: 1st Sept, 2017 – 9:00 AM (Chennai consulate)
We were allowed inside the room at 8:30 AM and the person at the front desk gave a sheet and told to arrange our documents according to that. Later he called one by one, and he checked and sorted out the needed documents. He gave the token number and told us to wait.
I got token number 3 and a German lady was my VO.

Me: Good Morning mam.

VO: Good Morning, Can you please give your documents?
Me: I gave my documents and my passport.
She returned back my dd, and told to change it within 1:00 PM.
VO: She saw my Work exp and asked a few questions related to that.
How many years you worked there? Are you still working there?
Me: Mam, I worked for about eight months, and I resigned now.
VO: When did you resign?
Me: Answered.
VO: What is the connection between your undergraduate studies and the postgraduate?
(I got embedded in TU Chemnitz and I did my UG in Electrical and Electronics engineering).
Me : I had studied about electronics in my UG and I am fascinated to do many real time projects in that field. Embedded is related to electronics hardware and software, so I preferred this course.
VO: What are your future plans?
Me:  I want to do PhD mam.
VO: Really? All the best. We will mail you regarding the status.
Me: Thank you mam.
She was typing something and took my finger prints.

The visa went in a positive manner for me, but the guy who went before me was told to write a letter of motivation in a sheet of paper.

Be prepared for anything!

You started to apply for the winter intake only in the month of March, hence most of the top courses are already way past their deadline.

Is it a good idea to join the private universities in Germany?

Germany has lot of "public" universities which offer zillion courses in most of the engineering/science disciplines. But still, there are some students who like to apply for the "private" universities which has better acceptance rate on a comparative basis. The application process for these private universities are much simpler and doesn't take much effort. There are some universities which offer good course modules and practical exposure. On an average, most of the private universities ask for tution fees of around 18-20k EUROS for two years, where your living expenses are not included. Thus for two years you would need to spend around 40k EUROS on a whole. Though the private universities charge tution fees, they would not guarantee an job or Campus placement after your studies.

ADAPTING TO THE GERMAN ENVIRONMENT AND OVERCOMING HOME-SICKNESS

Every year there are tremendous increase in the number of students coming abroad for their education. I have seen so many students opting for Germany as their destination for pursuing Masters. Many of these students are very eager to know the German life and how to adapt to these conditions. For most of them, it is going to be a first experience outside their home country, so based on my own experiences, i would like to give some tips and tricks for those who are coming to Germany for the first time.  First and foremost, it is going to be tough to adapt to the food habits. As a student from India, i have experienced a lot of these. To begin with, we cannot find more Indian restaurants and even though when you find one, all are costly and we cannot compare the taste of the dishes prepared in these restaurants, to the one's we used to have in India. Because, these restaurants are mainly for the local people, who want to explore the Indian cuisine and hence most of the dishes ar...

Trust me, even I was in the same dilemma when I wanted to pursue my Masters course.

Climate:   Are you a person who likes Winters to be cold(around 0 degree Celsius)? Are you a person who likes to just have 2 months of Summer? If you’re from a tropical country, then there is high possibility that you will not like Germany’s climate, but on the other hand Singapore has similar tropical conditions, which makes it easier to adapt.  Winner:  Singapore Course duration:  Most of the courses...
