In the academics, specialization is key. Except you end up in a business school, other universities prefer straight-jacket scholars. In Nigeria, finance has a discipline is not deepened. in fact, the accounting profession has registered appreciable progress. Let me say this, where an accountant is needed, a finance graduate may not fit in. But you will hardly find an opening pinned down to finance graduate in Nigeria.

As much as Msc Finance is your best bet, some nigeria universities do not accept Bsc Accounting for Msc Finance application. I am 100% sure of Unilag. I wrote the entrance examination last year and scored 74% but was denied admission because I had Bsc Accounting and even with ACA.

My advise is that you should make proper enquiries before applying for Msc Finance in any institution.

Unilag now accepts Bsc Accounting for Msc Finance.
