lol I am from Covenant University, I know the 1st and 2nd edition of pressid CU had d highest i think 10 and 11 respectively (minister of power said this during my graduation), this 3rd edition I only saw my name and 4 others i know from my dept in CU maybe there are other people from CU that weren't in my dpt and I didn't or don't know their names; and our VC won't lie trust me

chuna1985:


Lil, over 10% of the students have first class...Is that really a school ?

First class is an elite position, not a position anyone can reach.

Nigeria.

amokeme:
like I said before, we have over a hundred more unis whose girls are friendly so just ignore the CU queens and I think a person's attitude irrespective of the gender shouldn't be anyone's problem. oh well, iv indulge you enough..

Your English is a disaster.

Kindly request for a refund of the outrageous fees paid by your parents.

This further buttresses the fact that CU and their likes are nothing but dumping grounds for candidates who are intellectually handicapped to meet up with admission requirements of Federal and State universities.

They use ''good grades'' to compensate parents and sponsors for exorbitant fees paid to acquire certificates their wards can hardly defend.

Amazo:


I will readily employ a second-class upper graduate from a federal university like Unilag, UI, OAU...etc over a first-class graduate of CU.

Donpizzle:

Ever heard of the word SUBSIDY...
The skul fee of a federal university student is low bcoz it has bn SUBSIDIZED by the govt and dats y its naturally more difficult to gain admission in federal than private unis...if u care to knw, there re more qualified lecturers,profs,Dctrs e.t.c in public unis than in private unis......tke note

samsonbazy:
Can d first class graduates in CU can ever compete with second class upper graduates in universities lik OAU,UI,Unilorin,and Unilag?why there is no any CU student has come first or second in inter-campuses debates organised for under graduate Law students and medicine students?why is it easier to gain admission into CU than federal universities like OAU,Unilorin,UI,Unilag,UNN? Rhetorical questions.

are you an eagle?

Richmond996:


that is the stupid thing that is worrying Nigerians like you. you think its easier to get admission in CU, you are very wrong my friend. even with 200+ in jamb your admission is not sure (speaking from experience). You are just backward. people will be hating on private schools like say tomorrow no dey. Corruption is every where and you ave not heard every ones story. AND pls don't ever mention UNILAG again, those ones are corrupt to the marrow, they don't give admission on merit again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

bushdoc9919:


Well....yes you would...and so would i.

But....in the good old days when our parents were young...a thrid class graduate from any of those unis was guaranteed a civil service job.

Nowadays.....even a first or second class has to do an aptitude test....and he/she may not get the job.

And the private sector would employ a foreigner...or a Nigerian with a foreign degree....to do the job over the regular Nigerian.

And even those grads you like get out...and do a Masters abroad.(Knew one chap who read architecture up to Masters....then went to England to repeat the masters...because he needed to learn up to date Architectural techniques.).

And even my field medicine.....you can't get a job in the lucrative healthcare NGO sector easily without knowing how to use SPSS or EPI-INFO. Which they do not teach in most medical schools(unless things have changed)

Let's face it....we need improved facilities in our universities...among other things. Pretending all is well in our universities because the gifted lecturers are still there(largely because private unis came around much recently)....is not the road forward.And it is either govt pays more money....or you pay more money.

kenex4ever:
it depends on the questions, those rich kids may have closer access to similar questions or the school may even teach them by lifting examples from d pressid past questions.
.
But for federal graduates, u r on ur own.
Even though u have n IQ of 250, if u dnt practice sample questions b4 writing an aptitude test, some one with IQ of 90 dat practiced with similar examples will score more.

CU is a very good school.I finished from Madonna Uni but all my friends from CU all graduated with 1st class and a set of twin also did same.1st class there happens to be the average 2.1 in most Uni.I am not hating oh...Let me joke a little,I heard 1st class starts from 3.0 in CU.

saxywale:

best post so far..That is why i tell younger people i know to go to a private uni if they can afford it. The world has moved in, no one cares about what university you graduated from again...what everyone wants to see is your grade..which leads to opportunities both in Nigeria and overseas.

whn I read things like this from pple, I just wish it was true but its not its very easy to fail or pass a course in cu

hustla:


Madonna University happens to be the worst private University in Nigeria .. and please stop spewing Lies..
I finished from the Mass Comm department with a 2.2 .. Since the inception of the school ( correct as at when i finished, only one student had graduated with a 1st class in Mass Communication. For a fact, in the Mass Comm department, 2.1 is more or less like a 1st Class, thats how rigorous it can be.

I remember going on IT in 200 Level and while writing news articles with students from other Polytechnics and Public Unis, I was the one proof reading their articles before being presented to the news editor. They had awful spelling errors and a very bad command of English.


I need not prove anything to you, just stop hating

hustla:


Over 10 percent?
LOOOOL
Why you dey lie na?

I am confused. Do they or don't they have summer schools. Plus do they or don't they leave out the carry overs until you fail them in summer school. I have asked students and staffs. I am not judging the school. It's a nice school. I just think that if I was given the opportunity to attend summer school with or without your school facilities, I think things would have been easier. Federal schools just make shyte hard for peeps. This discussion won't be sweet on a forum. Look for someone that attended OAU or UNILAG or UNN or those major federal schools, sit down and let them tell you the woes and troubles of attending a federal school. Before you can think or even talk about a first class.

No Law and Medicine in University
Research before you make assumptions.

Kindly keep quiet, you do not seem learned

As in schools that have prerequisite courses, where you will already know that you will have an extra year in your year 2 when you fail one course.
