.. Undergraduate go for NYSC except your age exceed the official age simply like any other University in Nigeria!

Noun students have not been cleared for NYSC. Not yet, though they are working on it. But exception letter is sure

PurestBoy:


No 4 is not true, I know a lot of their students, they don't have lecturers so what they buy is only handouts. They don't go to class. NOUN was meant for elderly people that didn't go to Uni and are working class but now most of their students are young boys and girls that are afraid to write Jamb and go to standard school

They don't buy handout but after your payment is made you are given all your material (books) for the semester which you can also download from the school e-library

.. PLEASE STOP this ARGUMENT! as it show how we are so afraid of change, many of our old professor today used the analogue phone in their days but am very sure today that they are sticking tightly to their ipads, iphone and the likes as am typing now enjoying todays technology.

Open University is a worldwide thing and one of the newest world development today to move mankind to the next level, why fighting it?

If you must know I did my first degree and second in a Federal University and latter went for another PG degree at NOUN. I was disappointed to discover how people including myself was wrong about the school if not for anything but for the very short time of existence and the development so far which is a mouth opening one,

It doesn't matter even if their law students do not go to law school yet which many other Universities surfers same fate sometimes before, we have many now using this opportunity to get educated before it becomes something you may not be able to get access to again.

Many old Universities do beg people to come and study in those days and my father is GOOD example and the same University seems so difficult to get into now.

My fellow NIGERIANS why do we always condemn our own thing meanwhile other Open Universities in the UK and China for example are celebrating theirs..how do you think China is moving on? until we (citizen) are all educated completely no meaningful progress will be made.

Please, be Informed that I have tasted the regular Universities and NOUN and I can say this....If you are not serious or ready to study hard please don't go to NOUN because you may not graduate. being camped in a PLACE is not all about education in this 21st century, you can earn your 1st degree to PhD level even without really being in a CAMP(US).Things are changing very fast indeed!!

..it is well, Nigerians!!

December 2012?

jorhney:



December 2012?

..that shows a backdated time of NOUN graduate going for NYSC, Why the payment are part of clearance procedure peculiar to all higher institution in Nigeria.

samseen02:

Till today, No NOUN graduate has ever been mobililised for NYSC but you will be given exemption letter. Regularisation fees has been on since 2012 or something like that; but going to service has remained a mirage untill they work on the law that established NOUN. So also admitting NOUN law graduates to law school has been an effort in futility so far.

Pls I want to study PGD in IT at NOUN can you enlighten me more about the Certificate. Btween a Part time in Conventional University or NOUN. I want to build my lecturing career in High Institution.

I really like this school

Hey guys, I'm glad I came across this thread. I have learned a lot already. However, most of the procedures I read here ended at the part where you're done will online application. I want to know, what next after printing the provisional admission letter and what are the items needed for registration (MSc)?

Thanks in advance.
