Master’s Programme Cost

The MySCU package is ₦5,000,000 as a one-time payment.

You do not pay before your eligibility is assessed.

You must first pass:

• The MySCU eligibility and degree-fit assessment
• The Prodigy Finance loan pre-assessment

If you qualify and decide to proceed, you sign the service agreement and pay the ₦5 million package.

What the ₦5 million Package Covers

• Eligibility and degree-fit assessment
• Programme selection
• Applications to up to 3 universities
• University and uni-assist application fees within the package allowance
• Prodigy Finance application support
• Expatrio blocked-account setup support

The Blocked Account

Germany requires financial proof for the student visa.

Planning figure: €13,092 for 12 months.

For eligible applicants, the plan is for a Prodigy Finance loan to fund the blocked account, subject to Prodigy’s final approval and approved loan amount.

This means you may not have to personally raise the entire €13,092 blocked-account amount.

However, Prodigy Finance makes the lending decision, not MySCU.

A successful pre-assessment is not final loan approval.

If Prodigy Finance does not ultimately approve enough to fund the required amount, you would need to fund the shortfall yourself or reconsider the route.

Other Costs to Plan For

There is generally no tuition on the selected public-university master’s programmes used for this route.

You will, however, pay a semester contribution.

At Saarland, the current planning figure is approximately €412.30 per semester. Other shortlisted universities are approximately €311 to €443 per semester, depending on the institution.

You should also budget for:

• Health insurance
• Flight to Germany
• Accommodation deposit
• Initial living and settling expenses
• Residence permit after arrival
• Any costs above the amount approved by the lender

A reasonable planning allowance for flight and initial settling expenses alone is approximately €1,500 to €2,000.

A personalised financial breakdown will be provided before you commit.

Who Can Apply?

This route is for bachelor’s degree graduates.

You may be suitable if you:

• Hold a recognised bachelor’s degree
• Have a degree reasonably related to the master’s you want to study
• Meet the academic requirements of at least one suitable programme
• Can provide the required English-language evidence
• Can explain how your proposed master’s relates to your academic and/or professional background
• Can pass the Prodigy Finance loan pre-assessment
• Are comfortable taking a student loan and understand that it must be repaid
• Can provide genuine and traceable academic and financial documentation

Your bachelor’s degree does not automatically qualify you for every master’s programme.

Your transcript, subjects studied, grades and professional background will be assessed to identify realistic programme options.

Some programmes have significantly higher academic requirements. For example, some Saarland computing programmes require strong grades and class ranking.

Do i need German?

German is not required for admission to the English-taught master’s programmes on this route.

However, the package includes German A1 preparation and a recognised A1 examination because German can significantly improve your ability to integrate, find part-time work and eventually build your career in Germany.

Can i Work While Studying?

International students in Germany can generally work within the limits permitted by their student residence status.

MySCU provides part-time job board access and application coaching.

Employment itself is not guaranteed.

• Bachelor’s degree certificate
• University transcripts
• Secondary-school certificate
