Most of you have streamlined yourself to only the university, some of you
get so angry when the word POLYTECHNIC OR COLLEGE OF
EDUCATION is mentioned as though these were irrelevant institutions,
but it ought not to be so.
Let‟s look at the word UTME: it means UNIFIED TERTIARY
MATRICULATION EXAMINATION.
The word TETIARY comprises of university, polytechnic, monotechnics
and college of education but most of you have this mindset that UTME
popularly called JAMB is only for universities
Have a change in your mindset as regards polytechnics and college of
education; embrace the fact that they are all HIGHER INSTITUTIONS
OF LEARNING.
You may have chosen UNIBEN for instance to study engineering and you
didn‟t get the required marks for admission or you didn‟t pass the POST
UTME, then you will give up saying things like God forbid! I can‟t go to
polytechnic
What matters is your dream, and if your dream is to become a graduate,
you can also go to a polytechnic to get OND and then apply for direct
entry into any university of your choice. It‟s all about what you come out
with in the end.
I know some people would argue that the polytechnics don‟t offer
courses like medicine and a few others,
So don’t get me wrong, my friend I am not saying you must go to a
polytechnic instead of the university, I am only saying you give all
these institutions a try and you will be the one to select where to go to
