A Message from Brother Tariq Ali – M.Sc( Electronic) M.C.S( Computer Science)
Assalamualaikum,
My name is Tariq Ali quoting this message from a friend of mine currently doing master's degreee in "Electronicsn
& Communcations systems" at Technical University of Hamburg, Germany. I want to share some information with
you regarding free studies in Germany, finland, Sweden and Denmark. Many prestigious universities of these countries have started to offer degrees in which the medium of instruction is ENGLISH.
There is no tution fees charged for these degree courses. I think this is the best opportunity for Pakistani students,
specially belonging to the middle class families, who haven't got enough resources to pursure further studies in US
or UK. At this time hundreds of Indian students are flocking to these universities, but unfortunately due to lack of
information, only a few Pakistani students, are getting their share from this golden opportunity.
Indians seem to drive us out of this field to, which is very painful for all us Pakistanis here. Apply to the concerned
universities as soon as possible. Please do it because we know that with better education we can contribute better to
the progress and prosperity of our homeland.
NOTE: Students are also allowed to work part-time on or off the campus and can easily manage their living expense
Sincerely yours;

How i can apply for a visa?
1.First one needs an admission letter from a University.
2.All other documents required can be asked from the concerning embassy.
3.One more important thing is a Financial statement.Visa officer should be satisfied that you have enough funds
available to meet your living expenses in his country.
4. Don't tell him that you are going to meet your expenses by part time job.
5. Always tell him that you're coming back home just after completing your studies.
How to make a financial statement ?
You can make an statement from a bank manager that you or your father/gaurdian is running a healthy account in his bank.How to make it you know better!
OR
If you have any relative living abroad and earning good money then it's time to revive relationship with him.Request him to write a sponsorship letter that he will support you during your study period. It will be great if he attaches his Income Tax statement along with his Sponsorship letter. It will be more great if he let this letter signed by a Solicter
/Notary public.
Will I get visa easily?
Only God knows better.It varies from case to case. But face the interview with confidence. Give him solid reasons why you have decided for further studies in his country.
How much initial money do I need ?
I think one should bring approx. DM 5000 initially with him.With this amount you can survive first six months.
This time is enough to settle down.
What sort of jobs students can expect?
Students who have good programming knowledge e.g C,C++ ,java or web programming need not worry
about getting a job. Though other students can too get a reasonable part time job ,but they should be ready to having a job as DISH WASHER, as a hawker or as !!! Before coming to europe ,please first think wether you are ready to
face such tough situations .Sometimes one needs to work as a real MAZDOOR(worker). I don't want to discourage you but only tell the reallity so that you don't blame me after arriving here.
Is TOEFL absolutely required for admission?
It is better to have TOEFL beacuase competetion is building up as more and more students are applying to these UNis. However there are chances to get admission without it.
Can IELTS be accepted?
Yes IELTS is accepted.
Is GRE or GMAT required for admission?
Most of the Unis don't need GRE.However for most MBA courses GMAT is required.
What about Ranking of theses Universities?
It is not like USA where Education is a Business.In europe all Unis are funded by state and almost have equal
standard. Government has only allowed the best Unis to start education in english.So there is no doubt about thier standard. For example,Our Uni (With only 3000 students) has an annual research budget of 100 million Deutsche mark.
What about standard of education in these countries?
Just to remember you germany is the homeland of industrial giants like Siemens, AEG, Mercedes, Bayer, Beiersdorf, BASF and SAP (the second largest software house in the world). According to standard of living
germany is third in the world. Finland is a country with population less than Lahore (about 5 Million) but has more Universities than in Pakistan. Nokia ,the worlds largest company in mobile communication belongs to Finland.
Another great company ,Erricsson belongs to Sweden. DO you think wi
