Hi Admin, I’m glad I came across your very resourceful site, I am from Uganda and I was recently denied a student visa by the german embassy on grounds that “no serious study intentions detected”. My main intention is to go for a language course and later enroll for the winter semester in German University sponsored by a german citizen. I don’t know if it would be wiser to appeal the rejection or simply apply again. Please help; I’m stuck. Thanks, Alicia.
Thank you for the kind words. If you think all of your application documents were complete then go ahead and appeal. If that doesn’t go well You can re-apply next time with a direct admission. But there is no guarantee for the visa.
Generally they prefer to have students going directly to university and not to enroll in language course first and later applying for university.
What if you get a conditional offer letter from a German university on the basis of passing German language Test and then you enroll in language course in Germany. What are the chances of visa application rejected?
I would like to tell you that have applied for student visa in Germany embassy Uganda. Its almost 20 days since I have submitted my application.Today I went to the embassy coz I want my passport for banking transaction! I asked them to give it to me if it didn’t affect my visa application processing time. The guy arthritis visa section said no effect for a couple of days & he gave it me. when looking the pages of the passport I saw a new stamp stating the type of visa,date of application submission and DE written there. could this indicate that my visa will be refused? plz help me with this! I am worried!
