University Of Lagos Dvc (academic) And Unilag Diploma II by rwilliams1: 4:34pm On Apr 27, 2008
It is increasingly heartbreaking as UNILAG diploma is not meant to assist the non-matriculated student but to obtain their funds and send almost 70% of them off.

In their admission letter, the minimum requirement for the admission is 2.50 CGPA but we have seen several cases where the cut off in CGPA are[b] 3.00, 3.50, 3.75, 4.00 and sometimes 4.10[/b]. Though, reasonable statements are made to back up these occurrences i.e. high number of students in each department. But who admitted them?
Do they not have specification for the number to be admitted to diploma and to 200 level?
These students paid three hundred and ten thousand naira (N310000+ N12500 diploma form) and at the end of the studies they do not have any certificate of completion irrespective of their grades. It is also impossible to obtain transcripts of their studies easily.

As Dr. (Mrs.) Dora Akunyili and Ngozi Okonjo Iweala (World Bank) are recognized like queens by their outstanding qualities and principles I do not think the best way to be like them is to be heartless or extremely strict like the new DVC of UNILAG (Professor Mrs. Mabel Ogunlesi). To the extent that she did not allow diploma student that have paid N150000 (specified half payment), N200000 to write 1st semester paper because they have not made full payment, which was announced like 2 weeks before examination. I heard that she is a devoted Christian and if it is holiness I know for sure that no human being can be holier than the Holy Ghost. And that is not how to make good name or set good standard.

Situational approach is the best decision an intelligent leader ever existed take and should take at all time.
With over[b] N300000[/b], what is the reward after completion?
Is there certificate after completion?
Is there certainty of being admitted with the minimum requirement of 2.50 CGPA?
In fact, I heard a case of student not admitted to his desirable field after having 3.20 CGPA.

Please, let be considerate and empathetic. Even Jesus Christ is as merciful as God. The Pharisees and Sadducees of time of Jesus Christ killed, destroyed and castigated in the name of Jehovah thinking they were doing the right thing but Christ gave mercy and freedom.
I want the authority, public, intellectuals, people of God and human right activist intervene to this occurrence because an injustice to one is an injustice to all. We are in a democratic world, God has made us free and everyone must be free


Thanks.

Hey! Why do people always get stuck to Unilag? If you know what they have been doing to other people why putting yourself in that situation? Elsewhere things are relatively easy and cheaper. These profs. in Nigeria are professing rubbish. They are bunch of bastards specialising in going to strike and raping. Their kids are abroad if you don't know. They don't believe in God or Nigeria system's growth. I don't respect majority of Profs. They are criminals.

to answer your question people are so desperate to be a part of the "great unilag" thats why the cut off is so high and the diploma fees are so steep. last i heard, it was 250 grand, but the fact remains that it has one of the best reputation in ond out of the country and their certificate is most recognized. as a graduate of the school, i don't see anything fantasic about it.
