Saleem MuneebHey I got my VISA. But I have a question. Can I change my University after getting VISA.
Situation is like that, I applied VISA on University A admission letter and I got my VISA with University Name and City written in Remarks section. Now I got admission letter of University B (which is in different city, same course but city is different). Because University B ranking is better and courses are better I would like to go to University B now but my Study Visa has University A mentioned on it. Can I change university now?

Dear Saleem ,
Yes fore sure. Just goto the new town where your university is in , Enroll in the course and do all the other stuff as you would do in the first university’s town.
Regards
AdminPS: if you contact the embassy , they will tell you that your visa is valid for the university only , but when you come to germany you can goto any university you want. Many students do it and there has never been a problem.

SMHHi,
I got accepted in TU Ilmenau and appeared for visa interview. After interview I got accepted in TU Kaiserslautern. I was misguided and I informed the embassy of my change in university. They, as is mentioned on this site, asked me to send a new application.There are no appointments available now. What should I do.
I need to rectify this mistake some how.

Hi SMH ,
Did they cancelled your old application?

SivaHi..
I applied for VISA using admission from Technische Hochschule Ingolstadt for summer semester. But I was late to apply and my visa may arrive just a day before the date of registration.
In this scenario, If I get some other admit for winter semester, from some other university, should I apply for visa again.?
PS: Summer visa will be invalid in 3 months
Thank you in advance
Regards

Hello,
One day before the registration looks okay , talk to your university if they can extend the registration date.
If that doesnt work out , yeah must apply for a new visa.
Cheers

I have a question about changing the university. I had a visa and admission from TU Chemnitz, because of timing I enrolled at Magdeburg University and I am studying my first semester here and also I got the residence permit in my passport with 1-year validation. Also, I have an admission from Paderborn University for winter semester.Now the question is, I wanna go to Paderborn, Can I change my university without any problem with residence permit?
Best

Hi Saman,
Normally this shouldnt be a problem as long as you have a valid admission in a university. But to be on a safe side , prolly in the new city , ask your auslanderbehorde. But i dont think it should be a problem!
cheers

ShreshaHello,
I have already applied for a visa and currently waiting for my results but today I got information from the university, I was going to stating that the subject I have applied to is no longer on their course of study due to insufficient enrollment of students. So,if I happen to get a visa will it be a invalid visa? -
ANURAAG SHARMA THOTAPALLYHi,
My friend applied for visa using university A and got rejected. Now he is applying for visa using university B admit but he is very much interested in university A.
If he gets visa for university B, can he directly go to university A??
thanks in advance.

normally it should be possible but the correct way is to apply for the university and for the same visa where he is interested to go!

Romil MewadaHello,
I had applied for a course M.A transport & logistic to IUBH, Bad Honnef Germany. Now my course already started on 11th September & they gave me a extension till 29th September. But I haven’t received my visa yet. Now they have a Pre-masters course starting from November in the same college and the next intake for M.A transport & logistics start from March 2018. So if I get my visa now, can I go & attent the 6 months pre masters course and then enroll for March 2018 intake on the same visa? Will I face any issue while applying for the permit?
-
your visa is valid only for the course for which you applied foR!..
for further clarifications , please contact embassy / consulate!

ConfusedstudentDear admin
I have recently enrolled in University A, and I got a residence permit for the duration of my studies. I am enrolled in the first-semester which ends in March. However, due to lack of quality, I am planning to change to another university which starts in September. Is there any problem in staying in Germany during that period of time (April-August) where I would not have class?
Hope to hear back
-
Hello,
If you keep enrolled in your university, the visa shouldnt be a problem. If you dont have any enrollment , hence your purpose of stay is not valid anymore.

ninaHello,
I went to interview in German embassy and I gave pre register THM university. Now I recieved siegen university acceptance letter. How can I replace it by THM univeraity ? Do they change it ?If they don’t accept it can I submit in new university after getting my student visa ?
Thanks-
Hi what is what pre-register?
Normally if you ask embassy that you wish to goto a university othen the one you applied or , they ask you to apply for a new visa.
Many students change the university after coming to Germany and usually there are no problems involved if you have a valid admission!
Its upto you !

RidaHey! I applied for my visa through wildau institude but by the time the visa arrived the deadline had passed so i changed my institude and university. So is there going to be any issue with immigration at the german airport once i get there. And if yes than what am i supposed to do now?
-
Hello Rida,
Normally it shouldnt be an issue. They dont ask too many questions. But if it they do ask, just show the new admission letter. Hopefully it should be okay
