Seeking Advice on Relocating to Germany or the USA for Work or PhD
Hello everyone. I am of Nigerian and Ghanaian descent and have lived in Ghana since 2010, becoming a permanent resident in 2016. Despite marrying a Ghanaian, I still face discrimination and struggle with joblessness. I hold a Nigerian first degree and an MPhil from the University of Ghana. I secured PhD admission to a US university for Fall 2026 but lacked funding. I applied for the SLB FFTF fellowship, performed well in the interview, but was recently rejected. This setback has been crushing. I no longer wish to stay in Ghana in an unproductive state. I’m seeking advice on how to relocate to Germany or the USA for studies or work. Information on Germany’s blocked-account visa, job leads upon arrival, or contacts for potential PhD supervisors would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
