Okay thanks. How do you get your school to send an email? Do I need to go to MOE first or I should just tell my HOD?


So, you do not need to go to MOE.
You can go to your HOD or the exams and records unit of your school.
If you finished from OAUIFE, hit me up. i can walk you through the process.

Good evening house..
I got appointment at Austrian embassy for legalization on 5th August

I would like to know the best time to book appointment for verification at both ministry of education and ministry of foreign affairs., do I book now or do I book a month or a week to the scheduled appointment date at Austrian embassy? ….
I live in Enugu and I hope to travel to Abuja just once for both legalization and verification at the ministries and at the embassy in order to save money

It is cost effective to have have everything sorted out at a go, but anything can happen at MOE and MOFA, i almost did not see my name at MOE, even though my school sent them an email on my behalf, so, don't let Nigeria happen to you. get an agent to help you sort your MOE and MOFA before your appointment at the Austrian embassy.

Hello guys, I just started my research on studying in Austria. About document legalization someone told me that before going to ministry of education that I need to go to the school I finished from and request they send an email to the ministry of education stating that I am a graduate of the school and I also need to take of copy of the sent email alongside all my documents to the ministry for the verification process. My question is is this necessary, do I really need my school to send an email before going to ministry of education? Please guys I need your response

Yes it is very necessary, it is tiring sometimes, sometimes your sch may send and your name will not be in the list, so I advice that once your sch sent, maybe you let me know I will assist you to check before coming if u don't want to waste time.

MOE can also handle it from here, some did it that way and it work for them, but sometimes when it is handle my MOE the delay then usually may come from your sch in reply to them faster.

Yeah but I think I have to wait till like the date is around middle/ending of September or can I get august and shift it to September ending? Plus my passport is just under processing (I had to correct my name).

Are you still a student or you’re done?

This No 5(a) asking for proof that you’ll use it in Austria does someone need to email the school for a letter or how?

The proof is the request either as email or from the portal, requesting the documents to be legalized.
e.g this is a request from Uni vienna requesting for legalization of my documents followed by an email, this request suffice.

Hope this is clear enough?

Thanks for this. Yeah this is clear but from this method you have to start the whole application process before going for legalization. What proofs can I submit then if I’m yet to start admission process at all.

Can I mail the school? I have university of Vienna as my main choice but for summer 2025. About to finish computer science Bsc August hopefully without any strikes 😪
Re: General Austria Study/visa( Process And Requirements) by beevalley: 12:30pm On Mar 22
According to the embassy, you’re not allowed to legalize if you have no “current request” from any institution.
So it’s better you start a process or email some schools so you can get a proof to present

Good evening house
Please I have been trying to apply to some Austrian school for bachelor’s program but all the ones I have seen are are requesting at least B2 German proficiency before I can be considered., this is really a serious problem for me as I have gotten verification date (5th August) at Austrian Embassy for verification and I won’t want to miss the date
I am currently learning German but I would like to know if there are any schools in Austria that don’t require German proficiency before I am accepted for Undergraduate studies?

Generally, even if your level of the German Language is not yet up to B2, it won´t hinder your being admitted. You will only be given admission as an irregular student. This admission as an irregular student is enough to process your visa/residence permit.

After arrival in Austria, you will be registered in your school as an irregular student, with this you still have all rights of a regular student including the 20hrs/week work permit. During this period you will be learning the Language either at your school or outside for example at VHS, WIFI or BFI. You have up to two years to fulfil the language requirement of your school.

One important hint i will like to drop pertains to the 20hrs/week work permit, it is of pertinence you print out copies of the work permit forms and take along with you to any prospective employer to fill and you return this to the AMS (Austrian Labour Office) for stamping, this will ease your process of getting a job because some employers may be ignorant of your right to work in Austria.

The PDF format of the work permit forms are on the homepage of the AMS, download this and print multiple copies for yourself.

A comfirmation that you are still learning the language (at an intensive level) to meet up your school requirement is enough to get RP extension within the first two years.
