I have a friend who wants to study med nd surgery nd he filled DELSU in his jamb form and he was discouraged from choosing DELSU as it is not a fed school nd ws told to pick a skul lyk uniben or uniport as d skul one finishes 4rm matters a lot. I thought of it as a stupid thing nd it wasnt true until i watched a movie today and it was clearly exhibited as a man who went to one of the best schools in the country was given more favour and opportunities than one who went to a local school.. Please is there any truth to this nd throw more light on the matter so i wil understnd. Thank You.

Most times, it doesn't matter but in Nigeria it might because what employers place value on is the certificate and not what you can offer.

No. It don't matter. As long as your university is NUC accredited no employer will discriminate you. Employers consider the grade you graduated with not the school you attended

yes. Most employers don't care if your first class is from UI or Kwasu. For example in my state, if you make first class in any Nigeria university you get scholarship to any foreign university with immediate employment when you return. So the school you get the first class don't matter
